Meet Christine and Patrick!
This wonderful couple was married in Cape Cod this Fall. You’ve seen sneak peaks of their photos on the blog, but I’m so excited for you to see Christine and Patrick’s Slideshow!
Here are a handful of my favorite wedding images!
Christine’s personality is electric! She lights up the whole room. And her laugh, her beautiful laugh is completely contagious! I love this shot of her laughing as the ladies all toasted her.
Christine headed out to make her way to the ceremony site. As the door opened below bright sunshine flooded in with such intensity that you couldn’t see the people waiting below.
The extreme expressions of sunlight throughout their wedding day are one of our favorite elements about this wedding!
Dad and daughter walking down the aisle. Their faces say it all.
As you heard, Brian and I flew in to Cape Cod a couple days early. We rented bikes and rode all over looking for the perfect spot for wedding photos.
Brian found this quiet spot off the beaten path.
Look at the sun flare in this image. I love how the soft, red circles add to the beautiful, embracing story of their relationship.
The light changed and a quietness settled.
Resting place.
I also love this shot of Christine adoring Patrick.
Aside from the beautiful couple and the amazing light, Christine and Patrick did an incredible job planning every detail to their wedding. This was an especially big thing to do because Christine and Patrick were planning their wedding from their home in NY. Their event planner, Tasha Bracken from The Simple Details, seemed to be the secret weapon that helped every last piece come together. Tasha, you are amazing!
The menus were wrapped in satin.
The bouquet was gorgeous!
Even the ground was magical!
Chatham Bars Inn, the wedding location, crushes seashells and covers the ground with them.
But my absolute favorite image of the day is this one. You can only attempt an image like this, and then hope that the sun gave you a gift in return. The design of the sun flare at the bottom is more than I could ask for!
But don’t stop here! Check out Christine and Patrick’s Wedding Slideshow! Just click on their name!
The song they sent me is called Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros. This is an Icelandic post rock band. (Brian and I just love the diversity of songs that our couples pick to express their wedding day.) I love the translation I found for Hoppipolla online. Here is a short piece of the lyrics in English;
smiling
spinning in circles
holding hands
the world is a blur
except when you’re standing
Many congrats to Christine and Patrick!
Brian and I had the most wonderful experience working with you both. Thank you for also introducing us to the stunning beauty of Cape Cod. We’re hooked for sure! 🙂
We love you both! Me Ra and Brian
p.s. Your slideshow is only a preview of all the hundreds of images to come!

Wow – beautiful pictures! I have so many favorites, but I LOVE the close-up of them dancing at the beach. That last shot of the light coming out of the reception was pretty crazy too!
Beautiful slideshow!!
great job, guys!
well done! The last one and the red circle ones are my two favorites! Congratulations Christine and Patrick!!!
GORGEOUS photos (as always)!
Just curious… in the near future, if you’d have time, would you consider doing a post with tips on photographing in the snow/winter? Ideas for staying creative when it’s cold and dreary out, tips for working with the wonky light (too much AND w/ snow reflection or not enough due to thick overcast clouds) we get in the winter? We got our first snow here in WI and I’m already feeling less creative…and there’s a long way before we hit summer again!
Lovely wedding – Cape Code is definitely magical and you captured it! Thank you for sharing – beautiful work!
Fantastic!! How did you do the shot of her walking down the stairs and everything is blown out but her?
Just amazing. Great job!
mmmmm…. Sunflare Love it!!
Simply amazing. I sit back after watching one of your slideshows and feel completely inspired. Thank you for your wonderful, beautiful work!
I am thankful for you and your family and your blog – happy thankgiving!
