Behind the scenes at a wedding...

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 00:31:00 +0000

Some behind the scenes video of my work at a wedding. I love seeing the still photos I capture and the live footage at the same time. A little sample of the fun, relaxed and stress free style of shooting we have. I think some of that comes through in the still photographs.

Say I Do with Bumper Pool!
Free Wedding Photography Contest!

It's a combination made in heaven.
Bumper pool and free wedding photography.
I love photography and I love bumper pool. Believe it or not - there are similarities. Both require a steady hand, some semblance of hand-eye coordination and good light! Back in the day I used to be able to sink all 5 balls in a row. I haven't done it since the 80's. I want to see it done again.

Hence the contest. If you are a bride or groom looking for a wedding photographer this is your calling. Come to the studio, chalk up the cue and shoot away. If you can sink all 5 balls into the opposite pocket in 5 shots we will photograph your wedding FOR FREE. This is our basic package which includes up to 6 hours of coverage and an online gallery of all enhanced/color corrected images. If you have already hired us you're still eligible! Come in and sink 5 in a row and we will credit you up to $3500! Good towards wedding coverage only.
Spread the word!! The contest ends Sunday, March 21, 2010.

Heather & Karsten - A Rosecliff Wedding - Newport, RI

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 00:48:00 +0000

There's a reason this place was featured in the Great Gatsby, True Lies and Amistad. Heather & Karsten couldn't have selected a more beautiful venue for a wedding.

Katie & Tom - An Indian Pond Country Club Wedding

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 16:16:00 +0000

I had posted 11 images from the wedding on facebook late one night right after the wedding. I come into the studio the next morning and listen to my messages. Tom and Katie had called us at 1am (the same night we posted the images and the night before they left for their honeymoon) to tell us how much they loved the photos and what an amazing job we did. Who does that?? It was one of the nicest, most sincere surprises we have recieved. I could listen to that message all day. So here's a little addition to the 11 photos we posted on facebook. Katie & Tom - you guys are the best! I hope your honeymoon is unforgettable! Look how beautiful an Indian Pond wedding is!

Easily one of our new favorite venues! This place is beautiful. We can't wait to take our daughter Kira here just to walk around. Bradley Estate where have you been all my life?? Liz and Allen are the perfect couple and they had the perfect wedding. I told Allen this is exactly what I want Kira's wedding to be. In 45 years. Brett Heeney had everyone cutting rug all night once again. Enjoy the slide show!

Erin & Craig - A State Room Wedding

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:42:00 +0000

The rain went away and the views of the Boston skyline were jaw dropping. Everything worked out for this wedding. As a couple, Erin & Craig had more fun on this day than most people have at Disney world. A huge help when it comes to fun on the dance floor - which was non-stop all night - is DJ Brett Heeney of Crackerjack Entertainment. The State Room is one of Boston's most stunning venues for a wedding. The view, the service, the food - all amazing. Kelly joined me again as a fantastic second shooter. Here are some images I captured throughout the day for your viewing pleasure:

Laura & Alex - An Atlantica Wedding - Cohasset, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Wed, 27 May 2009 18:43:00 +0000

They met in Turkmenistan. Yes. Turkmenistan! And now here they are getting married in Cohasset, MA. Turkmenistan was probably sorry to see them leave. They are two of the nicest people we have worked with yet. Their engagement session was so fun so we knew the wedding was going to be a good one. We love Atlantica weddings. Such a perfect location in Cohasset Harbor and walking distance from the Lightkeepers house. Enjoy!

An Oceancliff Wedding Anniversary Party

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Sat, 16 May 2009 03:56:00 +0000

I had the incredible opportunity to photograph a rare and beautiful event last weekend at Oceancliff. Kate and her family are longtime clients of ours and I wanted to do my best when she asked if I would photograph her parents 50th Wedding Anniversary! ...50th!! She has an amazing family and it showed. It was an honor to be a part of such a great celebration. I love seeing families this happy. Here are just a select few from that day. Enjoy!

The best way to watch is to press play and then pause it until the entire movie loads. Then press play again.

Shannon & Bill - A New Seabury Wedding

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 23:23:00 +0000

Our first wedding of the season and man was it a good one! Shannon was one of the happiest brides. EVER. Her and Bill are definitely meant for each other. The weather at the beautiful New Seabury Country Club held out and we captured some amazing photos outside. Inside, DJ Danny Walsh helped us out again with great music and non-stop dancing. Enjoy the slide show!

GOAL Boston Ball 2009 - Event Photography

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 01:23:00 +0000

I donated my time & services to photograph this year's fundraising GOAL Boston Ball. It was a great event at the Westin Copley. It is an amazing cause that needs more help and awareness. This is from their website: "GOAL ensures that the poorest of the poor and the most vulnerable in our world and those affected by humanitarian crises have access to the fundamental needs and rights of life: food, water, shelter, medical attention and literacy."

The Brick Park band was amazing! Enjoy the slideshow. Donate here.

Nicole & Jonathan - A Blackrock Country Club Wedding

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 23:37:00 +0000

The Blizzard of December 20th! What could be better for a winter, Christmas themed wedding than a snowstorm! Nicole wanted a winter wonderland and she got one! Kelly Hike helped me capture all the beautiful winter details. I think Melissa and I made the right choice when we purchased our Honda Ridgeline! The limo couldn't get up Nicole's street! Here's a collage of photos I captured during the day. Visit my Facebook gallery to see more images here:

Stacia & Charlie - A Granite Links Wedding - Quincy, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 21:54:00 +0000

The award for biggest smile goes to.... I think you'll see.
Stacia and Charlie gathered all their family & friends for a crazy good celebration at Granite Links! Yes it was cold out but this is New England! The colors outside were too good to miss. Plus any chance to get my Gossamer driver cover and barely used golf clubs in a photo has to be taken. Stacia has a better swing than me and she's in a wedding gown!! Enjoy the slideshow!

Kerri & Dan - A Red Lion Inn Wedding - Cohasset, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 05:17:00 +0000

Kerri & Dan had a brisk yet beautiful fall day for their wedding. Sandy Beach was a little chilly and the groomsmen, being gentlemen, graciously loaned their jackets to the ladies. Boom - perfect photo. Then we trollied back to the Red Lion for some warmer photos out back. Beautiful autumn colors! DJ Brett Heeney warmed everyone up even more with some great music all night. He was so good that he actually got a girl up and dancing and her leg was broke! Kelly Hike was second shooting with me again - what a team we make! Enjoy some of my favorites I captured in the slideshow below:

Rena & Will - A State Room Wedding - Boston, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 05:13:00 +0000

This one had it all. The State Room is jaw dropping. The view is amazing even at night. Jenny from Trends & Traditions was again making sure the celebration was smooth and stress free. Fairytale Productions captured artistic footage all night. Rena & Will planned a spectacular wedding and I was so happy to be a part of it. I tried to kick it up a notch... a sax player, man-hole steam, traffic, dark alleys and then some! It was so much fun. Thank you Rena & Will!

Heather & Karsten - Charles River engagement photos

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 04:42:00 +0000

A perfect fall day along the Charles! I love the runners getting involved! And you can't go wrong with sailboats. Plus these two certainly know how to smile...

Tammy & John - A Hotel Marlowe Wedding

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 01:26:00 +0000

Tammy & John picked such a cool & funky location for their wedding! The Hotel Marlowe has such character and amazing locations. They planned it right with plenty of time for photographs outside along the Charles and inside throughout all the unique settings. John recently finished the Fire Academy and his dad read the Firemen's Prayer at the reception (the photo where John is raising a glass in the background). I had never heard it before. It was a tear-jerker. Here it is:
___________________________________________
When I am called to duty, God
Wherever flames may rage
Give me strength to save a life
Whatever be its age.

Let me embrace a little child
Before it is too late
Or save an older person from
The horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
and quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling
To give the best in me,
To guard my friend and neighbor
And protect their property.

And, if, according to your will,
I have to lose my life,
Please bless, with your protecting hand,
My family and my wife.
___________________________________________

And on that note... enjoy the slide show! (Could Tammy have a brighter smile??)

Jenn & Shawn - A Red Lion Inn Wedding - Cohasset, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 04:57:00 +0000

I know... Enough already with the Red Lion Inn weddings! How can I not blog Jenn & Shawn's wedding? I can't. So here it is. I can try and describe how good this one was but the photos are way better than my words. Jenn and Shawn scheduled plenty of time for photography and the weather and light was perfect. The bridal party was so cooperative and fun - a great tribute to the kind of people Jenn and Shawn are! Jenny & Michelle from Trends & Traditions did another amazing job making sure everything ran smoothly. Michelle from Fresh Focus Productions was there capturing her classic, unobtrusive video footage. Kelly Hike joined me again as second shooter and we raised the bar once again. Enjoy some of my favorites in the slide show:

Alison & Erl - A Red Lion Inn Wedding - Cohasset, MA

kjeld@kjeldm.com (kjeldm) — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 04:07:00 +0000

I knew going in how important the photographs were to Ali & Erl. I love when our clients tell us that photography is the most important thing to have after the wedding. My mission was to give the photos a "Scottish feel" seeing as the theme of the wedding was Scottish and the groom and his groomsmen were all wearing kilts. I knew the stone church right up the street from the Red Lion had a European castle look to it so that was the plan. Soooo simple. Except that it was Cohasset Day! The streets were closed and there were people everywhere! No worries - it wasn't going to stop me, Ali or Erl and it actually worked out better than I planned. Ali and Erl got into a row boat in the duck pond! Let's hear it for Cohasset Day! Nothing like a beautiful bride with her new husband in a kilt in front of a historic stone church!
