Kate & Joe - A Lyman Estate wedding

Not a dull moment to be had here! Kate & Joe sang at their ceremony - a rare and special moment that I've never seen before. The DJ's had both the Irish & Italian families dancing and singing together all night. I had a toad join me for some ring shots and the Lyman Estate was beautiful! Kelly Hike joined me again and did another fantastic job. Mark Willand and his wife were the videographers and were amazingly discreet. The photos will be available soon and can be viewed and purchased here: www.pictage.com/535330

Here are a few, or 63, of my favorites I captured throughout the day. Enjoy the slide show!

Nichole & Rob - The Red Lion Inn - Cohasset, MA

Another beautiful day for a wedding in Cohasset! Nichole was a stunning bride. As a couple, Nichole & Rob gave so much attention to details making all their guests feel welcome. There were plenty of kids in the wedding which just shows how much they love family & friends. Nichole and her father danced to the Godfather theme! One of their guests actually came out at the end of the song and kneeled before the "Godfather" and kissed his hand. It was pretty funny! So I just had to make this poster. The photos will be available soon and can be viewed and purchased here: www.pictage.com/532454
In the meantime take the cannolis and enjoy the slideshow.

Sarah & Jake - A Grazing Fields Farm wedding in Buzzards Bay

A classic New England horse farm! Grazing Fields Farm - how much more beautiful can you get? Although there was not a horse in sight it was one amazing location for a wedding reception. I had the pleasure of second shooting for Kelly Hike - I owed her big time! She is doing an amazing job second shooting for me while Melissa is taking care of our newborn Kira. Here are a bunch of my favorites from the day. You can see more great images from Kelly on her blog here. Enjoy!

meeting kira

Our good friends from college - Tom, Mina, Julia and Timmy came up to visit us and meet our new daughter, Kira for the first time. You think Timmy knew I was taking his picture when he was holding her?? After holding her we went outside to play and get some photos. I asked Timmy to try and hit the camera with the Nerf ball - close but no cigar! He nailed me in the head on one of them. And I think Julia likes having her photo taken... Bonus Kira photo included!

Melissa & Rob - A Newton Wedding

A Rolls Royce, an awesomely long veil, a beautiful church, arm wrestling and the 3 Amigos. We had fun with Melissa and Rob during their engagement shoot and we had more fun with them at the wedding! Our assistant Stephanie was with me on this one and she grabbed some great shots also!

Casey & John - A Red Lion Inn Wedding

Formal photos BEFORE the ceremony - YES!! I wish more couples would break tradition and do this! It's way better than taking them after the ceremony - trust us! It's less stressful, you get fantastic photos of seeing each other for the first time and you can relax after the ceremony and enjoy your cocktail hour! Not one groom has said that this takes anything away from seeing his bride come down the aisle. They all still get choked up. Casey & John had a great wedding at the Red Lion Inn. Here's a sneak peek - look how beautiful that dress is going down the stairs. Enjoy.

Now an easier (but longer??) way to get to kjeldm.com!
kjeldm.com will stay as is but southshoreweddingphotographer.com will also get you to kjeldm.com! I know for some, Kjeld doesn't really roll off the tongue that easy. The business name "kjeldm" is my first name "kjeld" (pronounced "kel") and my last initial "m". Like Jay-Z, but without the dash and the shades and the bling and Beyonce. Anyway - if you know anyone looking for a wedding photographer just send them to southshoreweddingphotographer.com! It's that easy!
