I stumbled on this little gem while editing a recent wedding at the Barn at Gibbet Hill. A bit darkish but, interesting to me. Sorta feels like an older painting. Anyways, I hope you like it.

June 22, 2009 - 10:49 pm - Thanks Mel! The bride brought this great supah long veil. I was playing with it and shooting away.
I recently shot the sensational wedding of Carlyn and Brittany at the Barn at Gibbet Hill in Groton, Massachusetts. We started out at the Spring Hill Suites Marriott in Devens to document the preparations. This wedding I brought along the wickedly cool Stacy Doyle to second with me. She rocks it with her intimate PJ style. Once the brides were ready we headed over to Gibbet Hill for the ceremony and reception. Gibbet Hill is a great place to have a wedding. The grounds are superb, the staff is fantastic, and the reception barn is so cool with it’s post and beam construction. The ceremony was had under blue skies with patchy clouds. This was a really great backdrop for an outdoor ceremony which was very touching and ever so powerful. The reception followed shortly after. Here’s some of my favorite images from their wedding day.

June 22, 2009 - 3:35 pm - Thanks Mark! That's a bit of Photoshop beauty but, only to get the coloring the way I liked. I wanted to get a shot like this bad. Especially with two brides. Not to mention that Brittany and Carlyn are really in love. It's so easy to capture it and create great images when you have love.
June 26, 2009 - 11:26 am - Awesome coverage, Jeff! They should be so happy with their images! I love all of them!
June 26, 2009 - 12:36 pm - Thanks Anna! Gibbet Hill is such a great place to shoot a wedding. It seems to get a bit easier each wedding but, the 5d mk2 is makin life great with low light venues.
I had the distinct pleasure of capturing the wedding of Tracy and Jeff at Granite Links Golf Club in Quincy, Massachusetts. The day was really warm and beautiful. I started the day at the Quincy Marriott to get some getting ready shots. I loved the interactions before the ceremony. Such fun and excitement! The ceremony followed at Granite Links and it was full of passion. A great cocktail hour was next and then the amazingly fun reception. Wow! What a fun group that loved to dance. I was also astounded by the incredible view from Granite Links at night. A view I’ve never seen before. I may have to revisit it for some personal shots of Boston. Here’s some of the shots that moved me from their wedding day. Oh and where is everyone going on their honeymoon this year? Hawaii!!!




































June 28, 2009 - 2:34 pm - Jeff, as a bald man I love seeing the photography of all the bridesmaids rubbing the head for luck. Great work. Not the most beautiful venue in the world, but you made it look like a million bucks.
June 29, 2009 - 10:34 am - Mark thanks! Granite Links is pretty nice inside and they have a cool location to shoot Bride and Groom pics. A very good sized venue and great coordinators also.
Over last weekend I shot an engagement session with Sarah and Jermaine. I met them at a wedding that I shot last year for Sarah and Donn at the Bradford Country Club in Bradford, Massachusetts. A wedding that was simply full of love and amazing fun! Sarah was a bridesmaid and Jermaine, well he was pure dancing entertainment. Sarah wanted the urban look for her engagement photos so she suggested the Intercontinental Boston in downtown Boston. We meet in the afternoon on a great sunny and fairly warm day. I brought out my sweet AlienBee ring flash for a little fun and sexiness. We moved around the waterfront area and captured several different scenes with some wildly different results. Here’s a few images that I like.

I shot an engagement session with Brittany and Carlyn at Walden Pond Reservation in Concord, Massachusetts. I’ll be covering their wedding at Gibbet Hill in Groton, Massachusetts later in the month of May. I’ve always found a special affinity to same sex weddings. I’m so glad that I live in state that understands and provides a means for people in love to be married, regardless of their gender. Personally, I’ve found a great amount of appreciation for people who break through the typical stereotypes of our society. Needless to say, I am very honored to shoot Brittany and Carlyn’s wedding day. Here’s a few of the images from their engagement session.
