Elopement: City of Hamilton, Bermuda - K & O

K & O flew over to Bermuda from the UK to tie the knot with only their “parents in tow”. K had lived in Bermuda as a young girl and the island has always been a special location for her and her family. After getting ready together at the Newstead Belmont Hills Golf Resort and Spa - we made our way to the Registrar General’s Office for the ceremony. Smiling from ear to ear, the couple said “we do”. From there, we walked to Queen Elizabeth Par-la-Ville Park and Barr’s Bay Park for photos.

Engagement: B & H - Rosewood Bermuda

When Bridget & Hunter first reached out to me they said, “We’d love to have our engagement photos taken inside a bar that has a vintage style”. My reply, “You’ve come to the right photographer”. This engagement session was just the start of our “photo/client” relationship. I also had the honor of capturing their Welcome Dinner (here) and their Wedding (here) - all at lovely Rosewood Bermuda.

Wedding: A & P - St. Regis & Unfinished Church

I had the pleasure of photographing Angela and Patrick’s wedding day celebrations at the Unfinished Church and the St. Regis Resort; both are located in the historic town of St. George’s, Bermuda. One could not ask for better weather on their wedding day and this crew took full advantage of the sunshine. Many congrats to Angela & Patrick on their union!

After the ceremony concluded, they held their cocktail hour at the back of the church so their guests could enjoy the unique space.

We returned to the St. Regis for family photos, sunset bridal portraits, and the reception.

Portrait: F & Family - Cooper's Island

When Frank first reached out through my website he said, “We have a mutual friend in common”. To my surprise, his son was the college roommate of my good friend’s husband. Even more of a surprise connection: one of the ladies in the group - Frank’s daughter-in-law - used to teach with my Aunt in Tawneytown, Maryland. Small world! Needless to say, we talked and laughed the whole time!
