Catherine and Alex in Newburyport

You may remember Catherine and Alex from our totally incredible engagement session on Georges Island. They had a lovely, intimate wedding in Newburyport at the beginning of October. The original plan called for an outdoor ceremony and lots of photos at Maudslay State Park, but some fickle New England weather interfered with Plan A, and things were moved indoors. But that didn’t stop the day from being completely fantastic, AND to top it all off, we still decided to do a post-wedding session in Maudslay during fall foliage, so stay tuned!

Ring bowl by the famous Paloma’s Nest.

Love the dress, love the veil, love the hair.

One of Alex’s best friends officiated the ceremony, which included a handfasting.

After the ceremony, we took a few pictures in the restaurant. We only had about three feet of available space, but as you can see, we got some nice variety out of the window.

In case you’re wondering, the cake top is model of their three ferrets. Aren’t they cute?!

Congrats you two! Can’t wait for the photos at Maudslay (i.e., you can’t get rid of me yet!).

    You are fabulous! I never want to be rid of you! I did not remember seeing the wedding cake with the two of us slicing in earlier but that is yet another great photo.

    I love everything I see of this wedding, and this couple. Both the bride and groom look amazing, the ferret topper and ring bowl are quirky and cute, and I love the cake cutting picture! The body language in that shot is so tender – without even seeing a face! Great shoot, great wedding, great couple :)

    Beautiful photography! Loved the black and white photos especially the photo taken through the window. Also loved the photo of the bride taken before she changed into her gown…it was very evocative. It was such a lovely wedding despite the dismal weather and the photos really reflected that. Katie and Alex forever!
