mcgoverns on the water wedding

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful wedding of Alexandra and Euclid.

After their afternoon ceremony, the evening followed with a reception at McGoverns On The Water where family and friends came from as far away as Portugal to celebrate the day.

Congratulations Alex and Euclid, wishing you all the best for your future together!

This week I had the honor of documenting the christening of the beautiful Shenia, who loved the camera and wasn't at all camera shy.

Following the ceremony at St. Kevin's Parish was a party of family and friends where we took some fun portraits.

What a gorgeous baby! Her family should consider her modeling career now!

This weekend I met up with Julie and Derek for a fun wintertime engagement session. They came up with the cool idea of having some photos taken of themselves iceskating together, I love when couples come up with fun and original locations and ideas for engagement photos.
I'm looking forward to photographing their wedding in May!!

This week I've been shooting bikinis, birthday girls, and chocoholics. A casting call for a Sex in the City reunion? Nope, these are the names of just a few of the wonderfully designed hand painted martini glasses by Designs by Lolita.

Designer Tracy Lolita Yancey (shown below shakin' things up) used martini recipes as her inspiration and created this line of hand-painted glasses along with her trademark recipes on the bottom of each glass. This unique collection of glassware makes the perfect gift for anyone and create an instant conversation piece (over cocktails of course!)

Here's a sweet note I received from a happy bride...
Hi Andre,

Happy New Years!!! I hope you had a wonderful holiday and have had some time to relax before wedding season picks back up!!

You have been such a great guy to work with over the past year, and you truly do amazing work. I have had more people tell me that my pictures are some of the best wedding pictures they've ever seen!!! And of course, completely unbiased, I have to agree with them 100%!! Every time I look at my pictures, I am brought right back into the moment. Many people have made that comment - the way you captured the emotions of the day was just phenomenal. I could not be happier with my pictures!!!
Hope you're doing great - take care, talk to you soon,

Julie

wedding tips for going green

Minimizing the amount of driving your guests will need to do, donating leftover food to charity rather than throwing it out, makes sense to me!

I had the privilege of eating photographing the "steak of the year" awarded by Providence Monthly Magazine to Ten Prime Steak and Sushi.

Chef Nick Rabar was kind enough to stop me from drooling and allowed me to devourer some hand massaged, beer feed, New York Strip Kobe steak.

Delicious is an understatement.
