After a long time coming, Christine & Stephen finally got to tie the knot at the beautiful Blithworld Mansion in Bristol, RI this September. After a weekend filled with a hurricane, severe weather threatened their day this year but that didn’t stop them. The weather was actually a PERFECT New England fall day.

Finally! We are back at it! Guys - it’s been one hell of a year and if any couples can relate, it’s those who like Jenn and myself, had to reschedule their wedding day thanks to last year’s global pandemic. Allie & Mark are one of those couples who through all the uphill battles that 2020 handed them, persevered and let nothing stop them from creating the most magical day. And boy, they didn’t fall short.
We had an absolute blast on their day. It might’ve been spring but it sure felt like summer with 90-degree weather, Thankfully we were at The Wyndham Newport Hotel in Newport, RI, and it sits almost directly on the water! Their wedding party, family, and friends truly were beyond excited to finally get together after a year of being cooped up in the house! Everyone was on the dance floor all night long! We have so many great images to show you from their big day but for now, here’s a sneak peek to hold you over!

Michelle & Gary’s Plimoth Plantation wedding was absolutely beautiful last month. First off - I had no idea that Plimoth Plantation hosted weddings! Who knew the place we all went to in third grade would become a wedding destination for couples! In all seriousness, the location provided such a beautiful space for Michelle & Gary. It was secluded, quiet, and magical! Nestled in the woods, surrounded by their closest family and friends these two tied the knot. We cannot wait to show you this sneak peek of their special day.

When we get contacted to photograph an elopement, we get so excited. It combines all the things we love about a wedding in a more intimate setting with just a handful of the couple’s closest family and friends. While we’ve only done a couple of these, they’re turning out to be some of our favorites to photograph.
Allie & Dan’s love story is remarkable. They met while in León, Nicaragua in early 2014. . Allie was staying on a friend’s couch in a house where Dan sometimes used the refrigerator (it’s a long story). Soon after meeting, they began finding any opportunity to see each other. Both spending their days volunteering, they passed weekends traveling on hot, crowded buses to meet up at the beach, climb volcanoes, cycle on dirt roads, and talk for hours over tostones con queso.
Three short months after meeting, they parted ways in Nicaragua, not sure of what the future held but certain they would remain in one another’s lives. While Allie finished university in Boston and Dan pursued his qualifications in rock climbing in England, little by little they met each other’s worlds through visits with family and loved ones. It wasn’t all tearful Skype calls, though of those there were some — they continued to find adventures wherever life took them, whether to the southwest coast of England, Boston’s culture-clashing Freedom Trail, or the highest peak in the rainforests of Rwanda.
After two years of long distance, they found that new and more long-term opportunities in Nicaragua were calling them back to the place where they first met. Dan set to work starting a sustainable adventure tour company and photography business, and Allie worked for a cooperative loan fund.
But most importantly, they were able to start a life and build a community together. Over those two years they welcomed family and friends to visit our home in León, and made so many more. They decided to spend the rest of our lives together after taking a look into their future and agreeing that they couldn’t imagine it any other way but learning and growing by each others’ sides.
Allie & Dan tied the knot at a local park in Narragansett, RI. Although it was POURING out, they braved the weather and made it such an incredibly fun time. Nothing stopped these two. They ditched the umbrellas and even took a dip in the pool. We are SO HONORED to have captured their love story and this next chapter in their lives.

Here we are folks...The last wedding of 2017. Jenn and I can't thank all of the amazing couples, families and friends that we had the honor to photograph this year. Without you, this ship would've sank a long time ago. Your love stories are what keeps me going. We still have some lovebird sessions to post but we wrapped up the wedding season with Molly & Brian and their AMAZING, down right awesome wedding party. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better couple to close out the season. This wedding had it ALL! Molly & Brian met at Providence College and it was just the perfect spot to them bring them back full circle and get married. Marring your love one where you once met all those years ago seriously made the day feel magical. I had no idea Providence College was so beautiful! Their church on campus made for the ceremony's beautiful photos and PC's draw dropping campus made for stunning photos of Molly & Brian! After tying the knot we headed to Metacomet Country Club where we were blown away with beautiful fall views of their golf corse. The staff at Metacomet was so accommodating to our team that I honestly can't thank them enough! Molly & Brian's band choice, Young Love and the Thrills blew the roof off during the reception and had EVERYONE on the dance floor all night. At one point, Brian's mom even tied together some napkins and made a giant jump rope and had everyone join in. Although I wanted to include every single photo from their day, I had to cut back just a bit for now.
It's weddings like Molly & Brian's that make me love what I do. I hope you enjoy these sneak peeks.
With love,
Ryan

Anthony, Amanda and I met last summer and instantly clicked. I remember when I walked them out of our apartment, I got a phone call 5 min later from Amanda (who was still in our parking lot) She said "Yeah, I love you and don't want anyone else to photograph our day" . I smiled from ear to ear. These two were amazing to get to know over the course of a year. Their wedding was nothing short of that either. The rain might've forced us to have the ceremony inside, but we did manage to sneak outside to take some beautiful photos. I couldn't be happier with how they've turned out and can't wait to show you more! For now I hope you all enjoy this sneak peek of Amanda & Anthony's beautiful day :)
