Do you miss instant polaroid films?  I do.  Have no fear as its back.  Yes there is the impossible project, but that film takes a little more effort and cost then I want.  For me the new polaroid 300 camera and film, (which I am pretty sure they are just buying from fuji and putting their logo on it) is perfect.  Its small, light and so so easy to use.  Just a few options and its set to shoot.

I brought the camera to a wedding this weekend and to my godson's cowboy birthday party.  Check out the results below.

So a few weekends ago I did not have a wedding to shoot and Joey was sad.  Then Erica called and asked Joey to help her at one of her weddings and joey was happy lol.  I love being funny!

That was probably not funny your thinking...... anyways! 

I helped my awesome friend Erica Ferrone document Kristen and Craig's wedding at the Omni Parker house in boston.  It was a fun wedding.  I present a few of my shots here.

10:30 am to 10 pm, thats what this wedding was for me.  A awesome long day with so so many awesome photos and moments.  I met up with Emily at the seaport hotel where she was getting ready and where the reception would be.  She was sitting in a chair having her hair done up by her stylist.  Everyone was relaxed and cool and I proceeded to document them.  I thought it was very cool that Emily had placed her grandmother's wedding ring on her flowers.  It was a nice sentiment and touch.

The ceremony was held at St. Ignatius near Boston College.  It was a great ceremony.  Everyone left the church to wait outside for the Emily and Greg to exit so that they could blow bubbles at them.  It was rad.

From there we headed to boston college campus to do some shots and then to boston's long wharf for some ocean view images.  Then it was off to the cocktail hour where a little three piece band was playing modern songs with classical instruments.

The reception was detailed to the T with nautical themes.  The seating cards were little wooden boats on a blue table with a giant poster of boston as a backdrop.  Every seat had a origami swan.  You had to see it.

As the sun set and the speeches and toast started, the reception was in full swing.  Emily and Greg enjoyed the evening just like a movie wedding.  There was so much magic and love in the air.  I did pull them away for a few moments to get some city @ night shots and then it was back to the reception.  

I love it.

On a side note, I shot more film at this wedding then I have at any wedding in many years.  16 rolls on my xpan, horizon perfekt and my assistant pentax 645.

結婚している水戸および刻み目!

Mito and Nick.  Two students at Tufts that met about five years ago here in boston and are now married.  There wedding took place at the Devens Common center at Fort Devens, Mass.  

Nick's family and friends were from Boston and New York while Mito's family came in from Japan.  Thats a long flight!  

I met up with them as the were getting ready at the commons center.  They wanted to do their photos before the ceremony, but I still wanted them to have a intimate first meeting so I had Mito wait on the stairway by herself and had Nick come to her from behind.  It was great, they were so full of joy to see each other. 

From there we headed to Sholan farms to take some photos in the fields and orchards there.  Then it was back to the church and back to the reception.  Mito and Nick did have a great band play, but I can't remember their name right now, I will have to update this post later or someone can list the band's name in the comment section below. 

For you camera nerds out there (like me).  The panoramics here were shot on my xpan on 160 and 400 VC kodak film.  The 645 shots were shot on a pentax 645 on fuji 400nph pushed to 800.  I am not super happy with the color of that film so I think I am just gonna get some 120 rolls of more portra film for next week.  I will say that shooting Mito with the Pentax 645 was so fun. 

Enjoy a sneak peak there!

Friday was a great day in Andover last week, for thats the day Brian and Demitra were married at the Andover Country Club.  It was a beautiful wedding with tons of details made by Demitra's mom Debbie, especially the flower tossers for after the ceremony.  

When I walked into the room to photograph Brian getting ready I was set back.  I was like, Hey I know you!  I actually went to middle school with Brian and I do believe we wrestled during gym class once or twice, but that was so long ago!

Anyway, the ceremony was held as the sun began is setting on the lawn at the country club.  The light rays spilling over through the trees created a awesome ambiance for the marriage.

From there we headed downtown to do some photos on main street before heading back to the reception where the band Rare Form was ready to kick it up.
