i met my amazing couple, Caroline and Nate, in a coffee shop in Portland. from the beginning we had so much in common. we grew up in the same area…a little mid coastal pocket of towns held closely by its oceanic industry, its people, and of course, its pure quirkiness. i was so delighted when they chose their wedding location to be ‘home’…nothing seemed to fit more right. this wedding will come in two separate posts! the photos of the reception were just so overflowing with personality, emotion, and fun, i wanted to give it its own entry…so first, we have the preparation and ceremony shots, and Friday will be the receptions shots!
if you have been watching this blog a while, you know i have a distinct obsession with 2 things. the color pink, and shoes. and Caroline brought me both….
Caroline’s dress was the princess dress fantacy of every little girl and grown up girl alike, but perhaps the most heavy one also. it was a hot day, even with the soft breezes coming of the harbor…but Caroline and the dress held up beautifully.
i met the bride and bridesmaids in the beautiful Camden Amputhere before the ceremony…



the only other girl more important than the bride herself is, of course, the flower girl. and she took her job VERY seriously…
