Hi, I am Meghan Parisi’s mom and she and Sam were married on October 30, 2004. She wrote a small recap of her wedding and mentioned at that time that her sister, Katelin, was married seven weeks prior to her own wedding. Fortunately, for my husband and myself, both sets of brides and grooms knew exactly what they wanted and did all of the planning themselves!
Meghan chose Nancy Gould after researching many photographers online and in person, and was particularly impressed by Nancy’s photojournalistic approach. We witnessed the magic of her skill throughout the entire time from morning till midnight.
Nancy began the day, as we did, by just being there to absorb all of the activities that lead up to the wedding and reception. She quietly and in-obtrusively meandered around our home as the girls applied their make up, sipped coffee, and shared in the excitement of the occasion. Meghan’s wedding gown was hanging, as if in mid air, with her wedding shoes beneath it. Nancy caught the moment.
We have a balcony the overlooks the living room in our home where Nancy positioned the bride and her bridesmaids as the father of the bride gazed upwards to take in the scene. Nancy caught the moment.
My special request of catching Meghan at the church just as she was stepping out of the limousine was an amazing portrait of exhilarated anticipation. However, the picture of the newlyweds at the reception as they were stepping out of the limousine full of love and contentment said it all.
Nancy somehow managed to photograph every guest in attendance and even zeroed in on my nine year old nephew, who had created a face on his slice of wedding cake, from the Halloween candies that were at each table as favors. She truly captured the ambience of this happy event and created a treasury of memories that beautifully told the story of the wedding of Meghan and Sam.
But of course she would….she is a photojournalist!ReplyCancel

Meghan and Sam’s wedding day was a very special day to be a part of. Meghan was very beautiful and it was so nice to see them happy together staring their new life. Every picture shows the love and fun not only they showed but all of their guests experienced. One picture that stands out for me is Meghan coming out of the limo with the dark storm clouds at the reception and the umbrella, it was perfect because it showed a gleaming bride who didn’t let a little rain dampen her spririts that day. The color in that photo was amazing. I also enjoyed all their black and white photos and remember their thank you card vividly as a picture from that special day.ReplyCancel

Meg and Sam’s wedding was beautiful! I loved the pictures that captured the natural beauty of their day- the leaves were gorgeous! As Sam’s brother’s wife, I love the way that Nancy captured the guys’ personalities perfectly in her photographs. The pictures that she snapped of our nephew, Sammy, were absolutely gorgeous, too!ReplyCancel

Meghan and Sam’s wedding was a very special day for such a delightful couple and all those who have known and loved them over the years. Their happiness and joy was very contagious…and the photographers captured it all. Although we now have wonderful memories of their magical day, Meghan and Sam have a thoughtful and artistic collection of photos to enjoy for a lifetime. They are sure to become a family treasure.ReplyCancel
