erin and chris || glen manor house || portsmouth, rhode island

So fun to be blogging another wedding!! I had two in June that I couldn’t blog, so I might have gone a bit overboard with pics on this one to make up for it.

When Erin came into the studio we couldn’t stop chatting! A little about weddings, but also about Hawaii, being a teacher (I used to be!), and running marathons (she has…I want to!). She was a good sport that it was about 98 degrees with 140% humidity on her wedding day. Ok, I might be exaggerating a * little * bit, but it was HOT!!!!!!!!!

Staying cool by whatever means necessary!

I really think Erin's hairdresser should have won some kind of gold medal for this hairstyle, it looked perfect all night long without looking slicked back.

I was so in love with this place! The furniture, the windows, the stairs.....and Erin looked lovely everywhere!!!

The guys were hanging out outside....staying out of view!

I was very lucky to have the super talented Kristin with me, a Rhode Island pro!! She was with the guys who loved getting their picture taken all day. Seriously – they would not stop hamming it up! This is probably the most serious picture of them.

Erin framed quotes from her students about love and marriage. Adorable.

Did they do the chicken dance? Oh yes they did! I know most people think it's cheesy, but I kind of think it's so cheesy it's cute. I loved it ever since I saw He Said, She Said with Kevin Bacon. I tried my best to find the scene on youtube, but I think that this movie was before youtube’s time! (And yes, I did it at my wedding. Go ahead….laugh it up…)

I also see lots of kissing from the clinking of glasses...but this was a good one! Chris walked across the room and kissed her in a giant dip.

I drove down to Jamestown, Rhode Island to meet the newest little redhead in town. I’m pleased to introduce baby Tupelo…

Her mom, Jennifer, and I have been friends since we were fifteen, and I am so happy for her! Jennifer and her husband David are the ridiculously talented couple behind Clancy Designs. They make amazing pieces for everyday use, as well as fine art pieces. Doesn’t everyone’s glass shelf in their kitchen look like this?

Anyway, I had big plans of doing a huge photo shoot, but then we just ended up chatting and I got to hold a sleeping baby for almost an hour, so we only got a few shots.

David requested a picture of Tupelo in his hands. If you had a dad whose hands made stuff like this,


wouldn’t you want the same??
