Congratulations Morgan & Dustin!!!

I LOVE AUTUMN on the Vineyard!!! It is by far the best time of year for our beautiful Island. The weather is warm and crisp, the nights are cool and cozy, the sun is a blanket of orange glow and the people are content. Morgan and Dustin picked the perfect time of year to wed, as they know being Islanders themselves, they also picked some amazing spots as well! You might recognize these two love birds from their picturesque Engagement Portrait at the East Chop Lighthouse and Lagoon docks. Here they are as Husband and Wife Wed in Ocean Park and ferried across the Oak Bluffs Harbor to their amazing reception at the East Chop Beach Club. Congratulations Morgan & Dustin, it was a pleasure to photograph your wedding!!!

I couldn't post all of my favorite shots from this shoot b/c we are keeping some secret for the big day! Stay Tuned...

The Hong Family...

You might remember these two love birds and their awesome family from their wedding last year on the Vineyard. They are back again and this time for an early morning portrait shoot on Lambert's Cove Beach! LBC just happens to be my most favorite morning spot on the entire Island to take photos. I LOVE IT! We had fun finding different spots in and out of the surf to shoot while basking in the early morning cool light. Check it out...

Congatulations Lindsay & Ted!!!

I am sooo glad I was able to photograph this wedding!!! Lindsay and Ted are some of the cutest love birds I've met, and their wedding was AMAZING!!!! Lindsay had great taste choosing some of my favorite vendors to work with including the artful design of Lynda Dandeneau Flowers and the mouth watering Cakes by Liz all set in the Edgartown's Harborview setting, and take a look at her dress! Not to mention these love birds are quite photogenic and completely in love! It was a very easy day for me to do what I do! I felt like a little girl in a candy shop! I could gush and gush all day but I will let the photos speak for themselves, congratz Lindsay and Ted, and thank you for bringing me in on your marvelous wedding!

The Mountz Family...

Family Portraits are fun, but Family portraits with a family of four kids are my favorite! I am biased of course; growing up with three brothers myself in a family with four kids I just can't imagine life any other way! To watch the mountz family interact and play with eachother was like a trip down memory lane! Thanks you guys for being so awesome, I hope to see you all again next year!

The Viola and Muzi Families...

Moshup Beach and photographing an awesome family made for a great way to spend a summer morning here on MV! The Muzi's and the Viola's and I had fun chasing around the youngest member of their happy family. The last time I saw the Muzi's was for their maternity portrait and the last time I saw the Viola's was for the Muzi Wedding! I love that, I am so lucky and literally have the best job! I get to hang out with people on some of their best days, when they are celebrating amazing things; families coming together, couples becoming husband and wife and the promises of new a generation of family. Thank you guys for letting me be a part of all of those wonderful moments!!!

I can't wait to see you all again next year!!!  xoxox ♥ Kristen
