Tewksbury Country Club Wedding – The Dexter’s

I have known Lauren for a VERY long time. We grew up in the same small town, and when we were older she used to take amazing care of my oldest daughter in preschool. Lauren reached out last February and asked if I could photograph her wedding in September, and at first my heart sank, because I had just found out I was expecting my second baby and that it would be too close to the due date. I had to spill the beans that I was pregnant (before we had announced it yet) so I wouldn’t be available. Then she told me it was September 2017, and I was A – so excited that I would available to capture their special day and B – so impressed with how ahead of the game Lauren was with planning 🙂

Lauren and Bryan are just the sweetest couple, it was such a pleasure working with them in the planning stages and on the actual wedding day. Even with the rain, nothing was stopping them from making the most of this big day. Their celebration filled with so much love and laughter, and their guests were up rocking it out on the dance floor all night! I have to admit I was actually disappointed when the night was over!

I had a hard time narrowing down my favorites for this one, so please keep scrolling!

A Coastal Wedding in Rockport, MA

I had the privilege of second shooting this summer wedding with my dear friend, Alisha Maria Photography. The cliff-side ceremony was held at the Captain’s House, an absolutely beautiful bed and breakfast in Rockport, MA. I then went to capture the cocktail hour and reception at the Community House of Rockport.

Kristen Senior Session

Kristen’s Senior Session

Last summer I had the pleasure of photographing this Class of 2015 senior, Kristen! Before we headed out for her session, my friend and professional hair and makeup artist Beckie Davis met up with us at Kristen’s house to get her primped and ready for her portraits! (Learn more about Monique Tervo Design & Photography’s Senior Glam Experience) After about an hour of getting her hair and makeup perfect, we were ready to go!

As we were leaving Kristen’s, I noticed the skies were turning grey. Then, sprinkles were dropping on the windshield. I started pleading with mother nature, especially after just having her hair and makeup done, to please just hold out for a bit longer!

And she listened! The sprinkles stopped within minutes of arriving at River Bend Farm, and we proceeded with business as usual – and Kristen ROCKED it!
