I was so looking forward to Sherika and Geoff’s wedding this past May – I knew it would be a blast after their super fun (despite the rain & cold) engagement shoot in the north end. And I knew it was going to be small and casual, with lots of fun details. When I arrived that morning to start the getting-ready photos, their family and friends were all packed into their apartment helping with the last minute preparations – including baking the wedding pies and packing picnic baskets!

The ceremony itself was at the Arnold Arborteum in Jamaica Plain, and we started there early to get a lot of photos of just Sherika and Geoff… I swear we walked all over that place! There are so many great spots there. And we ended up near this quiet little place that they had picked out for the ceremony, underneath a beautiful tree blooming with pink flowers, next to a small stream. After the ceremony we all headed over to Somerville – to Powderhouse/Nathan Tufts Park, where the picnic was magically all ready to go! There was croquet, candy mustaches and a lot of fun.

I don’t have much to say about Lisa and Keith – I think the photos say it all! They are such a fun, sweet couple and we had a wonderful time for their engagement photos. Can you believe that I had never been to the Arnold Arboretum before? I can’t! I’m so glad that Lisa suggested it for their photos. And I gave her a couple of ideas for fun props to bring, and she completely ran with it! Pinwheels, bubbles, streamers, steampunk goggles! Awesome. Also, you might notice I toyed around with the post-processing of some of these images, with a vintage/golden look.
