Category Archives: Maine WeddingsHappy New Year! Here’s a quick video of some of my favorite pictures and moments of Blush’s 2011 wedding season that I shot. It was a great season and 2012 is booking with THE most wonderful new families too! I love it! Enjoy guys and thank you for making these images with me! (Keep frame small or images get funky!) Music by: One Republic, Good Life. What a treat to end my 2011 wedding season with such a lovely couple. The wedding of Arielle and James was a day to remember. It was held at the Woodlands Country Club in Falmouth, Maine. With snow on the ground, the two Jewish families became one and it was just perfect. The families blended their Jewish traditions in a beautiful service outdoors followed by roof-raising celebration that warmed up the soul. Arielle and James, despite the snow and chill, never stopped smiling once they were together. Adorable, happy couple to photograph! We had a wonderful time Arielle and James. It was a pleasure to share the day with you!
