Tammy and Greg had the most beautiful beach wedding and tent reception in West Falmouth. We completely lucked out with the gorgeous weather, not to mention the gorgeous couple! We had so many pictures we wanted to share from this wedding that we created a new gallery on our website, hikephotography.com. Choose Galleries and then select Recent Wedding to view the slideshow for Tammy and Greg's day.
Along with help from family and friends, Tammy and Greg had a great team of professionals who worked hard to see that the day was a success. Jen Halbert of Sweetpics was responsible for all of the fun, personalized details, and Connie of The Perfect Plan made sure everything went off without a hitch. Sean and his crew from Eat Your Heart Out Caterers provided the delicious food.
So, it's definitely feeling like fall, and I'm not complaining, because I love this weather- it's been beautiful! Perfect for running, sleeping soundly, and shooting weddings and portraits! But I'm hanging on to my favorite parts of summer for just a little while longer...last night we had a big family lobster bake, complete with clams, potatoes, and corn. Yum! I should have taken a few pictures to post, but I was too busy mixing up a pitcher of mojitos to go with dinner, and I might have sampled some too :)
These pictures will be more fun to look at anyway- gorgeous kids on the Cape in the summer. Click play to bring on the adorable!
Ericka and Jimmy were married at the beautiful Spohr Gardens, followed by a fun and slightly rowdy reception (that's the way we like 'em!) at The Flying Bridge Restaurant, right on Falmouth Harbor. Ericka was a stunning bride, and she is one of the nicest people I've ever met. She and Jimmy wanted to share the spotlight a little on their wedding day because two good friends (both in the bridal party) had been married by telecommunications when military assignments had shut down their wedding plans. They never had their official "first dance" as husband and wife until Ericka and Jimmy decided to surprise them with a dedication during the reception. It was an awesome, emotional moment, and I loved that their adorable son joined them for the end of the song. Also, Ericka had asked me ahead of time to pay special attention to them throughout the day so they would have some great pictures together. It wasn't hard because they are so affectionate and into each other. Here's their son enjoying some wedding cake:
who, me? i didn't eat any cake. okay, you got me, i did! yum!
Ready for more pictures of this fantastic wedding? Play the slideshow! Check out Ericka's face when she steps out of the limo- no nervousness, just a "let's do this!" happiness about her. Ready to marry the love of her life! And I love how Jimmy holds on so tight while dancing with his two favorite women- first his wife, then his mom. So cute! I couldn't help but put in several pictures of the ring bearer and flower girl. They were adorable and did their jobs perfectly. Thanks so much Ericka and Jimmy- Alissa and I had a blast!
What a place for a wedding! I love tent receptions to begin with, but put the tent in a gorgeous setting like this horse farm...total awesomeness. I was enjoying the scenery all night, and feeling so lucky that it was my job to photograph not only the farm, the tent, and all the details that fit together perfectly, but also a beautiful group of people. Sarah, Jake, their family and friends were all so friendly and fun. I was also feeling very fortunate that I had the extremely talented and artistic Kjeld Mahoney of Kjeldm Photography to help me out- Alissa was attending a friend's wedding, so Kjeld shot with me and got amazing images, as he always does. Here are a few of my favorites that he took, followed by a slideshow of some of my own.

These two are super hot, and when you put them together, they're smokin' hot!! Awesome chemistry, gorgeous location- Alissa and I loved shooting this engagement session, and we're so psyched for the wedding which will be soon on this very same beach!
More favorite moments and fabulous details from an awesome wedding at Willowbend Country Club in Mashpee. I love how one of the flower girls walked down the aisle with a stuffed animal covering her face! Something that was very evident throughout the day was how strong the friendships and family relationships are in this group. Kevin and Liz had an incredibly enthusiastic audience for their ceremony, first dance, and especially the cake cutting! Kevin's friends obviously think very highly of his bride, and after she covered his face in frosting, I think they love her even more- check them out cheering in the background!
While I was taking a few pictures of the guys, Kevin noticed he had spilled an appetizer on his tie. It didn't take more than two seconds for one of his groomsmen to offer to switch ties with him. So cute! That's when you know you have picked the right people to be in your bridal party.
What a celebration during the reception! There was a ton of dancing going on, and at one point Kevin's new mother-in-law chased the bridesmaids away from her daughter's husband :) Love it!! Please watch the slideshow to see all this for yourself...
This gorgeous couple had perfect summer weather, a beautiful setting, an emotional ceremony, enthusiastic family and friends, and a rowdy reception. What more could a photographer ask for? Alissa and I were so happy to be a part of this wedding! Elizabeth and Kevin are the nicest, sweetest couple. The bridesmaids and groomsmen were supportive, entertaining, and fun! There were so many great moments throughout their wedding day- some of which will be posted in a slideshow coming soon. I just had to post a few of my favorites today...
