Anne-Marie and Paul’s Wedding at the Beach Plum Inn on Martha’s Vineyard
It was great meeting Anne-Marie, the former fisherwoman from Juneau, Alaska, and her wonderful fiance and friends on a blue sky September day on Martha’s Vineyard!
Anne-Marie and Paul’s beautiful wedding ceremony and reception were held at the Beach Plum Inn in Menemsha. This was the third wedding we’ve photographed at the Beach Plum, a great private inn tucked into the woods overlooking Menemsha Harbor, where folks gather nightly to watch the sun setting over Vineyard Sound.
Anne-Marie and her bridesmaids got ready down island at the Harbor View Inn in Edgartown. The Harbor View is also picture perfect and ideally located just across from the Edgartown Lighthouse at the mouth of the harbor. Still plenty of sailboats coming and going, and lots of fishing activity with the start of the Martha’s Vineyard Striped Bass and Bluefish Derby.
The stunning flowers were from Louise Sweet at Flowers on the Vineyard, who also provided the floral arrangements for Kylle and Will’s wedding back in 2008.
Thank you Anne-Marie and Paul for having us photograph your wedding!

Natalie and Adam’s Wedding at the Red Lion Inn in Cohasset MA
Natalie and Adam were married two weeks ago at the Red Lion Inn, on the South Shore of Boston in Cohasset, Massachusetts. The Red Lion is old world European, featuring the authentic Brasserie Zapp with its exposed beams and polished brass bar (and photos of celebs such as Steven Tyler dining at the Brasserie).
Attached to the Red Lion Inn is the Lion’s Hall, a rough-hewn wood chapel with a wrap-around loft, where Natalie and Adam’s ceremony was held. After the ceremony there were touching and funny speeches by Natalie’s dad, Adam’s brother, and Natalie’s sister who was hilarious in her imitation of Natalie as a young child.
On display at the reception were photographs of Natalie and Adam growing up, and it made me think how other people’s family photos really draw folks in. In a similar vein, check out the award-winning documentary film “Other People’s Pictures” by our friends Lorca Sheppard and Cabot Philbrick, about collectors of other people’s snapshots.
We also want to mention the beautiful pink rose floral arrangements were by Calyx Floral Design.
Natalie and Adam, we hope you had a great time in Italy– thank you for having us photograph your wedding!
