A Perfect Winter Day


One of the highlights of my year in photography was capturing Jackie and Derek's wedding day in December in Boston's Seaport. The December day was beautiful and sunny (but chilly). Jackie and Derek's day started out with a private first look at the waterfront.

Braving the Cold


With temperatures in the 30s, Jackie braved the cold in her sleeveless gown and open-toed heels for bridal portraits by the waterfront! The Seaport in Boston offers gorgeous backdrops of Boston's skyline and the Boston Harbor.

Time to Party


Then, it was time to celebrate! Friends and family joined the newlyweds at Woods Hill Pier 4 for a beautiful and lively reception. The reception was filled with fun drinks, amazing music, delicious food and a whole lot of love!
