Real Wedding: Chey+Ann

>> Monday, May 17, 2010

Today we have a GORGEOUS elegant wedding from the super-talented Lane Hickenbottom with Lane Weddings. He was kind enough to give us a little synopsis of each photo. Enjoy! Thee images are fabulous!
Chey and Ann planned a beautiful two-day wedding. The first day, a Friday evening in July, the two were married in the back yard of Chey's mother in front of a small group of friends and family. The wedding was simple, intimate and elegant. Each had their only sibling--Ann's sister and Chey's brother--stand for them.
The back yard was a beautiful setting. Here Chey and Ann walk "down the aisle", along the swimming pool after the ceremony.

Right after the ceremony, Ann changed dresses so she could wear her wedding gown the next day at her reception. We spent a few minutes shooting my signature, big-sky sunset portraits. Generally this is about as beautiful as a sky as you can hope for. Little did we know that about an hour later it would be even better.

Ann had planned for luminaries to be lit up and down the long driveway leading to the back yard. At dusk they were stunningly beautiful. I love this quiet moment between Ann and Chey--one of my favorite photos from the 2009 wedding season.
A little later in the evening a thunderstorm rolled in. As it approached they sky was electric and gave us an amazing opportunity to shoot some portraits with the storm in the background. We probably shot this for about fifteen minutes and there were 3 or 4 frames with good lightning, but this was easily the most dramatic.
This shot of Ann's bouquet was made the following day at the Lincoln Country Club. The bouquet was made by Burton Tyrrell's in Lincoln.

Their cakes were done by Linda Hudson of Butterfly Bakery, whom Ann called "outstanding". In addition to this cake the couple had a Fenway Park groom's cake. Chey and Ann, both from Lincoln, were living in Boston at the time of their wedding.
Chey and Ann practice their first dance together on a fairway at the Lincoln Country Club.
Practice makes perfect as all eyes are on the couple during their first dance.

I love the outdoor sky photo shoots. How lucky to capture the lightening. What a great shot.
