Gina + Cody threw an beautiful October wedding! We love fall weddings because it’s soooo different from the summer weddings. Your ceremony is usually right at sunset, your photos outside under string lights, and indoors..it just presents us with a totally different vibe compared to the summer weddings in Newport.

Gina + Cody couldn’t have asked for a better night. Beyond the beautiful Row Hotel, and the church, we were able to sneak them outside for a few shots around the plaza and boy did they turn out magical. Gina, Cody and their family and friends were beyond amazing! Thank you all for making this day a dream come true for the couple, and for our team!

For now, here’s a sneak peek of this beautiful day! More photos coming soon!

Ashley & Wale seem like amazing best friends of mine rather than clients. These two are some of the sweetest, kindest and most appreciative people I've ever met. As soon as I met them I couldn't wait to photograph them. From our cold wintery day just over a year ago when we had a blast in their neck of the woods - to just little over a month ago at their wedding where there was a ton of dancing, lots of amazing photos, and lots and lots of laughs. Heck, I even joined them on the dance floor to showcase my awesome two step at one point. That one got a lot of laughs.

Ashley & Wale, thank you for allowing me to photograph your story. I hope you both love these sneak peeks and I can't wait to show you the rest! Thank you so much, out of the bottom of my heart for not only allowing me to photograph this journey of yours, but to become a friend rather than just a wedding vendor.

With love,
Ryan

Back last year, I got a message from a good friend of mine, Norm Yelle, an amazing DJ, and all around fun, but a little crazy friend. He let me know he sent a couple over to me and that they were highly interested in booking me! Kristyn & Eric sat down with me and instantly, we had a good time. Eric is beyond funny. I couldn't stop laughing at everything he said during our consultation. Kristyn is so kind, I can't tell you how many times she apologized for her future husband's actions. I told her "There is absolutely no need to apologize. Eric is so funny! I can see why you want to marry him!" Their day was absolutely spectacular. It was filled with every emotion in the book. From Kristyn worrying that everything was perfect, to Eric tearing up when she walked down the aisle, to an amazing fun reception with Norm. 

Seriously, I had so much fun with these two. Here's just a sneak peek from their big day. I can't wait to show you the rest.

Last week, I got to head to Independence Harbor in Assonet, MA where Nicole & Michael tied the knot! Nicole & Michael booked me last summer. We shared our love for photography, graphic design and Chippi's (if you've never been to Marisol's in Dartmouth, you don't know what your missing) Both graphic designers, our conversations began to be more about branding and marketing than actual wedding photography. These two have so much talent and for them to choose me over everyone else, was honestly a blessing. They quickly became good friends of mine and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Before we all forget what Fall looks like (since the rain this past week blew half of the leafs off) I needed to share their absolutely stunning fall wedding on the blog. Besides the fact that we were in prime time for fall foliage, Nicole & Michael designed their own wedding from top to bottom. With their love for Disney, each of their tables in the reception we're labeled after a Disney couple. From new age Disney movies like "Wall-E & Eve" to old classics like "Cinderella & Prince Charming" Speaking of Cinderella, take a look at her dress. It's absolutely stunning and I swear, she looks exactly like her. From the cake, to the music, with the DJ playing "Be Our Guest" as an opening dance number, they would have made Mickey and Minnie proud. 

Congratulation's you two. Thank you for everything!

Back in May I got to second shoot for the amazing Sarah Jayne. Sarah and I know each other through a photography community located in the Boston Area that serves one mission: Community over competition. It's a place we all go to when we have a question, need an extra hand on the wedding day or need a second shooter when our normal team is busy. I love to help out other local photographers. In this industry, things are constantly changing which means, I have to constantly keep learning. Working with other photographers has taught me so much over these past few years. I've promised myself that even if I'm busy (which I totally am), whenever somebody needs a helping hand, I'll always be there for them!

Here's a snippet of the wedding Sarah and I photographed together.

Meet: Rebecca & Ryan
Cheers!
