Eli and Audrey had a fun, if a bit chilly, day last October in central Massachusetts… I love going to Northampton – it’s one of my favorite towns in Massachusetts – and a wedding in the fall at Look Park, well that can’t be beat! Poor Eli was freezing (well, we *all* were a little bit, I think :)), as he is originally from Texas. But, the party got started and all of the love & warmth from their family & friends (many of whom came from Texas and other far-away places) made it quite a cozy evening at the Garden House. What a beautiful venue, and even more so with all of the amazing details that Audrey & Eli put into their wedding!

I had such a great time at Lisa and Chris’ wedding! I was able to photograph both the bride and groom getting ready, which is always fun. And then I walked with the guys through the (very neat) town of Northampton to the church. It took a couple of tries, but we got that Abbey Road shot, I think! And then of course the arrival of Lisa and the girls in the red VW bus… Although I wasn’t able to shoot during the ceremony itself, I caught Lisa and her dad walking down the aisle, and then the very end. The VW bus was definitely a focus of many of the photos afterward – Chris had a great idea to get a shot of them in the hubcap – kind of a mini-fisheye look! And then we were able to go out for a few minutes during the reception to take a couple of photos around town – I think the Calvin theater shots were worth standing in the middle of the road.

At the reception, many of the details were handmade – the table signs, placecards, favors, and cake topper, to name a few. And once dinner was over, the Chicken Slacks kept the party going into the night – if you’re looking for a band, definitely check them out!
