Look at you!! Great photos once again!!
(07.20.10 @ 11:55 AM)The ceremony was held at St. Augustine's in Andover, a beautiful old-fashioned church. In a previous meeting with Nicole and Peter, the priest had them each right a top 10 list of things they loved about the other. Neither had heard what the other wrote until the priest shared them during the ceremony.
Unfortunately, it was still raining pretty hard when we left the church, so we were unable to take some cool photos in downtown Andover as planned, so we all headed off to the Atkinson Country Club in Atkinson, NH. Luckily it stopped raining for a little while before the reception started, so we were able to take a few shots on the beautiful grounds of the country club.
The reception was filled with dancing and laughter, and they had a cool espresso bar towards the end of the night! Check out some of our favorite shots!

These photos are outstanding. ,.I wish I could take credit in saying"I was his teacher and taught him all he knew" You are a wonderful artist. I will forward these to your former teachers and friends. You are one fine photographer. I wish I had a daughter/son getting married that you could capture precious moments for our family. Nice seeing you again. . .I hope to see your name along with your photos in the Photographers' Hall of Fame. Ms Baranski

(07.14.10 @ 09:15 PM)Joseph, I cannot remember if you were in my math class in 7th grade (blame it on early onset senility), but I would like to claim you as one of mine after seeing the great photos you took of Nicole's wedding. How nice to see so soon the prelude to the wonderful event we attended . Looking forward to more photos of the reception, dancing, and festivities. Rita Pelosi 7th grade math teacher at Belmonte
(07.15.10 @ 04:54 PM)Down the hall, Jamie was a sharp contrast to the calm and collected Melyssa. An energetic person already, Jamie was so excited to get married that he was practically bouncing off the walls! He was documenting everything on his new iPhone too, and even used an app to make sure he got his double windsor knot just right.
The ceremony and the reception took place in the same beautiful room at the Commons of Topsfield. It was a quick ceremony officiated by Melyssa's cousin, in which Jamie and Melyssa poured separate bottles of black and white sand into the same container to symbolize that they are now one together. Then the chairs were cleared away and tables brought in for the real fun to start!
Melyssa has been a dancer all her life, and we soon learned that Jamie and the rest of their guests loved to get down on the dance floor too! Melyssa and her dad set the tone of the night when the began their dance together to a traditional slow song, only to break into a "remix" halfway through and preform a dance choreographed by Melyssa! It was awesome and definitely set a fun precedent for the rest of the night! There wasn't a time when everyone was dancing - there was always a circle in which guests were having a dance off. Everyone was having a blast and could tell by how much fun Jamie and Melyssa had with each other that they were perfect for one another.
But enough talking about it! See the night for yourselves in some of our favorite shots below:

Joe your pictures are amazing - I couldn't even look at all of them at first because I was overcome with emotion the first time. Being the usual Father of the Bride I was looking to cut cost everywhere and I thought lets just get anybody to do the pics on the cheap. Jamie and Melyssa found you and what a find - I have been a craftsman and artisan my whole life and an artist every once in a while. I work on priceless items and I know quality and your work is classic. You did in the pics what a great artist does, you not only captured the images but somehow you captured the emotion of a fleeting moment. A moment that we would have otherwise only had in our memories without your great work. I was talking to Melyssa about how happy I was with the pics and she said "Dad when you think about the album is all we have from the wedding for the rest of our lives". That says it all and I repeated that to a few other brides a few days later and they said the same thing word for word. Joe, thank you so much for the work you did, I knew I was going to like you when you started to roll around on the grass and do yoge poses to get the right shot. The only down side to this whole thing is that I only saw a dozen photos I can't imagine seeing all of them. Thanks again John Misci
