Shauna & Ian – December 18, 2010

blueirisphoto — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 16:14:32 +0000

I loved this intimate winter wedding. Although our time together was brief, it was good. Shauna and Ian were a riot and an absolute delight to photograph. We had a few laughs, took a few photos. The Delta made a great indoor location, and a good time was had by all.
Wishing you all the best in the future!

Baby Owen

blueirisphoto — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 21:51:21 +0000

The moment I met Dave and Natasha, we just clicked. Before I even shot their wedding, Natasha was already talking about me shooting her maternity and baby photos. They are just so wonderful and gorgeous, I wasn’t surprised even a little when I saw how adorable Owen was. This was hands down the easiest baby shoot I have ever done in my life. Owen kept happily sleeping almost the entire shoot! I could manipulate him any which way I chose. For first time parents, these two were as calm and cool as could be.
I just couldn’t resist grabbing a few shots of their adorable pugs, Jake and Jersey. Even their dogs are photogenic!
Dave and Natasha are amazing parents, and I can’t wait to continue to document the growth of their family. The Bruce’s are always a joy to photograph!

Tina & Robert – November 27, 2010

Beau and I were in serious awe when we showed up to Tina and Rob’s beautiful home that day before the wedding. A photographer’s dream. Beautiful grey/blue walls in an empty room with a gorgeous fire place, and the most beautiful dark wood stair case to bring you upstairs. Tina looked so gorgeous it was a piece of cake to photograph her against this simple, elegant background.
The rest of the day Tina remained calm, and easy going. When Rob showed up for some photos before the ceremony, he brought with him his laughter and amazing sense of humor. Tina and Rob kept their wedding day simple and fun. The Civic Gardens was an amazing location for a ceremony. Although it was starting to get dark, the phosphorus lighting gave us some interesting atmosphere.
Thanks Tina and Rob for giving us the opportunity to photograph your amazing day!

The Werry’s

I love shooting fall portraits. Especially with a great family like the Werry’s. The smell of the leaves, the air. It’s so beautiful, just walking through the woods watching the kids explore and have fun. This was a perfect fall day. I love my job, and I’m so glad I get a little glimpse into the wonderful lives of families like these.

I love these guys! Not only are they adorable, they have personalities to match. Kirby’s beautiful red hair was so fun to photograph! Especially with the fall colours.
Sooooooo looking forward to photographing their wedding next fall!

Jen & Sean

Jen and Sean brought me to this beautiful location on a beautiful day! I thank them for that. We got some amazing shots and got to hang out in the warm October sun.
This adorable couple get their photos done every year together, something I think every couple and every family should do. Life flies by quickly and sometimes we get so caught up in our day to day life and forget to enjoy every moment. Documenting your life together on a yearly basis is an amazing idea, and you get some nice art to hang on the walls as well.

Stacy & Adam – October 23, 2010

blueirisphoto — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 15:24:10 +0000

Stacy was so emotional when I showed up to photograph her, she could barely stop the tears. So sweet, and so obviously in love.
The rain only let up in small spurts, so we were confined to a small space at the front of the courthouse for most of the shooting. But being faced with challenges pushes us to do better. The sky was quite dark, but I like the look it gives. The fall colours which frame the photos are so beautiful too.
Congrats to you both!

Tina & Marco – September 25, 2010

blueirisphoto — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 14:31:16 +0000

I don’t mean to start this story off on a sad note, but our beloved Norman (orange and white tabby) died on this day. When I left to meet Tina at the salon, I knew I wouldn’t see Norman when I returned home.
Now, I LOVE all my brides! I really do. I think they all know that. But there is something a little different with these guys. The first time I hung out with them and their family at the engagement party, I knew how special they were. There’s something about Italian and Hungarian families that I love! It’s not just their delicious food, but all the togetherness is so amazing.
After the ceremony, we made a stop at the Barking Frog where Tina and Marco met. What an awesome location for a shoot!
After the Frog we headed back to Marco’s family farm. I felt totally at peace. It is the most beautiful place with beautiful animals. The most adorable kittens were running all over, and everything made sense. Norman died to bring new life. That’s what life is all about, isn’t it?
This day marks the end of one life and the beginning of another. Tina and Marco begin their new life together this day.
You are both so amazing and special! I loved your day and all your great location ideas. Thanks for the adventures! I know you will live a long and happy life together.

Andrea & Sean – September 18, 2010

blueirisphoto — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 02:01:51 +0000

What I love the most about these photos is Andrea’s simplistic beauty. I love her classic look and she has this very serene presence that puts you at ease.
We did worry about the rain a little bit. About 5 minutes into the shoot, Beau was whispering to me “Jenn, it’s starting to rain.” I think he wanted me to panic and run out of the rain with our couple. But I continued to shoot, and the rain went away.
Beautiful location at Pine Knott in Dorchester, amazingly calm, easy going couple and overall an awesome day. A few of my favorite shots of the season were the ones laying in the grass. So pretty!
And did you get a load of those shoes?!?! Wow! Love, love, love the shoes!
Thanks guys for inviting us to be part of your day! And thanks for seating us at the lawyer table. We felt really special, and got to listen to some interesting conversation!

I’ve been photographing Jenevra and Kyle since their wedding way back when. It’s such a joy to be able to watch new families blossom. I got to see Jenevra during her first and second pregnancy, and both newborn babies. What an amazing time to document. I know how much I cherish my own photographs of my pregnancy and my babies, and I hope I can give the same to both of you.
Jenevra and Kyle, you have such a gorgeous family. I wish you all the best, and hope we will meet again in the near future as your little babes grow into beautiful children!
