One of the best things about being a photographer is being a part of a group in your local area.  The Boston Speakeasy group is one of the best fits for me.  We are able to post if we have questions or need any help finding second shooters.  This year alone I will have second shot eleven weddings with nine different wedding photographers.  It’s a fun group which leads me too….

A fellow group member posted that she wanted a shoot for her third wedding anniversary and would like to exchange photography services.  How fun!  Stephanie had reached out in the group to see who was available.  I was available AND the best part is we live in the same area so we were close by.  I met Stephanie and Nate at a secret location in Dover, MA.  It was a BEAUTIFUL location; a nice, wide open field with wild flowers blooming.

Stephanie and Nate your love is contagious and I had so much fun photographing you two.  It was so easy to pose you and let you guys be you.  Laughing, joking and just being together are the best part about these anniversary shoots.  I would encourage anyone reading this post to schedule one with a professional photographer.  It’s a great reminder to how you fell in love with each other.  I always hope to laugh and smile at three years of marriage like you guys.  Enjoy some of my favorite images from your third anniversary shoot.
