My amazing nieces!

On Sunday evening I had a quick little portrait session with my nieces Meghan & Lindsay. My sister has been wanting to do real close up portraits of the kids for her wall in the living room. We decided to do this while at my dad's house this weekend. I just wanted to share a few images from the shoot! Enjoy...

Carolyn & Dan - Engaged!

Introducing Linette LoConte! Linette shot this entire engagement session on Sunday by herself and I am so proud of her. The only image that I took is the first one with the reflection in the glasses. That is something I've been wanting to do for a long time! It was a hot and muggy day but we managed to fight through the weather and get some great images. We shot at this great property that the family owns in Newburyport, MA. It has a very rustic and wooded feel which made for awesome pictures. Linette is actually shooting their wedding this September at the same location! I'm really excited to see how awesome of a job she does. I hope she doesn't put me out of business! :) She has been wanting to get into kid photography and I am sure she will start filling up her schedule soon! It's great having the best wife in the world... :)

Meaghan & Jon

On Saturday I had the honor of shooting Meaghan & Jon's wedding in Halifax, MA. They both serve this country well as members of the U.S. Military and actually met overseas during active duty. They got married at the Monponsett Inn which is a beautiful venue right on the water and I highly recommend it for anyone still looking. The food was AMAZING! Meaghan & Jon live out of state so we never actually got to meet before the wedding but everything fell together perfectly. There are so many great photo locations at the Monponsett Inn and I think we took advantage of just about all of them! I'm really happy with the results and I cannot wait to finish them up. The LUCKY couple is honeymooning in Jamaica and I can't wait to show them these samples when they return home. Enjoy!

Jill & Shelly

On Friday Linette and I had the wedding of Jill & Shelly. The happy couple got married at the Nahant Country Club in Nahant, MA. I've been shooting there often lately which is nice since it's so close to home. I remember when I first met Jill & Shelly at Panera Bread (of course) They were extremely nice to me and just so awesome to be around. Their personalities reflected very well on their wedding and everything was just so great. It was definitely a great wedding to be a guest at and even to work at. The ceremony was supposed to take place outside but due to crappy weather we had to move it inside. I think the ceremony being inside in a smaller room really added to the day and it was great to be able to capture the emotions of everyone all at once. I really hope we get to see Jill & Shelly again. Linette and I enjoyed them so much!

Christine & Dennis

This weekend I had the wedding of Christine & Dennis. The ceremony and reception took place in Nahant, MA which was fantastic for me since I live 5 minutes down the road. I had such a great time at their wedding and the DJ kept the dance floor packed all night which made for some great pictures! I have worked at the Nahant Country Club before and it was great to see everybody again. I'm actually shooting another wedding there on Friday. Both of their families were so nice to me and the brides father really knew how to get down with his daughter on the dance floor. I'm really excited to work on these pictures and I hope everybody enjoys the samples posted above! Another busy weekend coming up with a wedding on Friday and Saturday along with an engagement shoot on Sunday. Stay tuned for more updates!

Diana & Rodney - Engaged!

Today I had a great engagement session with Diana & Rodney. As you can see from the pictures above they also brought their dog along for the shoot and boy was he adorable. He was very well behaved and a natural when it came to posing for pictures! We had a perfect day weather wise and shot at Beacon Hill and the Boston Common. The happy couple plans for a fall wedding this October and I can't wait to document their big day! Their dog is actually going to be included in their wedding as well so I'm sure that will make for some very cute pictures! Stay tuned this October for more of Diana & Rodney! I have another wedding tomorrow in Nahant, MA at the Nahant Country Club. Check back soon for those samples!

Chrissy & Justin - Engaged!

On Wednesday I shot the engagement pictures of Chrissy & Justin. They are actually already married but are having the actual wedding next June. Justin is in the military so planning the wedding has proven to be a little bit difficult due to his deployment overseas. The weather was gorgeous and we shot at two great locations: Fenway Park and Castle Island in South Boston. We spent the entire afternoon together and had a great time. I'm really happy with the results and I have already received great compliments from Chrissy's family! I cannot wait to work with them again on their wedding day. Also don't forget JohnLo Photography will have a booth at The Great Bridal Expo http://www.greatbridalexpo.com/ in Boston, MA on October 4th 2009. Be sure to come visit us!

Eileen & Andrew

Last weekend Linette and I had the pleasure of shooting Eileen & Andrew's wedding. The happy couple got married at the Atlantica restaurant in Cohasset, MA. The venue was gorgeous and overlooked a beautiful harbor. Andrew is a very talented musician and his band got up there to play a few songs during the reception which we both enjoyed very much! Eileen's mother and father both enjoy cruising so it was very cool to see all of their vacation photos scattered throughout their house. For those of you who don't know us well Linette and I have become somewhat addicted to cruising ever since our honeymoon. We had such a great time and are already planning a date night back to the Atlantica restaurant.
