Erin + Adam

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Erin and Adam met me at Colt State Park in Bristol, RI.

Which happens to be one of my favorite places to shoot, as there are so many

scenic and natural wonders, from the old stone walls to the ancient enormous trees.

This was my first time shooting at the beautiful DeSeversky Mansion in Long Island NY.

What a gorgeous spot!  It was wonderful to work with the whole crew there.

When we got there, we found out that the couple had chosen some wreaths designed by our dear friend Beth from Grasmere.
What a nice surprise! She does the most amazing arrangements (sorry, no weddings) and their store is filled with beautiful treasures. Stop by, if you are in the area.

At the last moment before the ceremony the “Something Blue” handkerchief was no where to be seen

Semia Dunne of FLOWERS by SEMIA came up the stairs with this amazing solution …

What made this wedding so unique was that the  flowers  came from the  gardens of the property.

They were so beautifully arranged by Semia Dunne of FLOWERS by SEMIA.
