There aren’t many other places that we’d rather shoot than Roger Williams Park in the fall.  It seems that our clients feel the same way since they all requested this locale for their autumn engagement sessions.  Melissa and Tom were one of them.  Prior to the engagement session we had only “met” these two on Skype.  It was so nice to see them in person!  They are getting married at one of our favorite venues, Bittersweet Farm.  Just like Roger Williams Park we have had the pleasure of doing many events at Bittersweet and we can’t wait to go back for this wedding.  We had so much fun exploring the park with Melissa and Tom.  Any bride to be that shows up in such a fun blazer is A-OKay with us!  Outfit number two included some great brown boots that actually matched the M’s who wore the exact same outfit to the shoot totally by accident!  Oops!

Lauren and Maty. These two names sound so good together. This couple embodies why what we do is so much more than a job. Our first meeting together lasted over and hour and a half and that’s where our love story begins. Our engagement session was awesome. It was then that we noticed that Lauren has a striking resemblance to Jennifer Garner and also where we met their sweet dog, Soco. The wedding day was a whirlwind of laughter, partying, and celebration. Regatta Place hosted beautiful summer evening ceremony followed by a tented reception featuring classic hits performed by Nasty Habits. This was also where we saw perhaps the most memorable wedding cake of the year, a donut cake by Allie’s Donuts in the shape of Lauren and Maty & Soco! Surrounded by six dozen of Allie’s famous donuts, this was the perfect dessert table for a Rhode Island based wedding. By this point we were completed committed to Lauren and Maty. Just when we thought we were totally smitten our love deepened. We learned during the best man’s toast that Maty was a bone marrow donor, not for someone he knows, because he is a caring and selfless person. The party flowed onto the docks throughout the night with the lights of Newport twinkling on the ocean. The joy these two share is infectious and we wish them all of the happiness in the world. XOXO

How many different ways can we describe the beauty of fall in New England? The crisp air, leaves crunching underfoot, the way the light falls on the yellow leaves. Add to that a couple in love and you’ve got yourself a Norman Rockwell painting. Or in this case, an M.Studios engagement session! We met Erin and Ryan on Providence’s east side along with their dog named Boy. We walked along South Main St. and chatted about their upcoming wedding at the Providence Public Library. We were even invited to shoot in someone’s pretty yard, hey, we’re not shy. Sometimes a little “trespassing” is necessary to get the perfect shot! We can’t wait to run around the library with these two. It’s going to be amazing!
