Grey and Shane have an upcoming celebration in January and we decided we'd hang out a little bit in Charlestown [right in the middle of the day, mind you, so we had no fancy sunrise or sunset to fall back on] before the big day rolls around. They are wonderful people both with an incredible curiosity about them. Oh, where their fantastic adventures will take them...

It is such a joy, spending time with Anna and Matt. They were married out on Peaks Island - right off the coast of Portland, ME. Though the rain came down something fierce during the ferry ride, their spirits weren't dampened in the least. Island life is so fascinating to me.
One of my favorite things about these two is how humble and honest they are - such an inspiration! I picked up on it when we had our first consultation here at the loft and I knew, no matter what, their imagery had to be just as beautifully truthful as they are. It had to reflect that in every way... and I think it maintains a very crisp and clean honesty to it... just like them :] A little while after their wedding, I flew down to DC to spend some time with them out there for their Together Session and I got the personal tour of the route that they traveled the day that Matt proposed. It was quite a wonderful lil trek - ending right by the White House. So for now, I humbly present to you...
the most beautiful story of Anna and Matt

Oh Eric, Friday 11/6/09 9:22 PM -- I was checking by email before I turned off the computer and lo and behold what a surprise. What a special way to end the day looking at the photos of my son and my beautiful new daughter-in-law. Here I am crying all over again. My joy comes from my family, Bill and my 3 children. Yes we have another son who couldn't make the wedding; I wish he had been there but perhaps another time. They are my pride and joy and I love them all so much that sometimes it makes my heart ache. Yes, I am a proud soft touch mom, a very lucky lucky lady.
Take care of yourself, you are always welcome at our home and would love for you to come down sometime perhaps in summer. Bill will steam you some good Maryland blue crabs. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with the ones you love and who bring you joy. LOL
Great photos and story, Eric. You captured the spirit of the day and this (incredibly wonderful) couple. Thank you for your talent and sensitivity!

Bravo! It reminds me of The Five Obstructions: Take away the crutches and beautiful, unexpected things happen (although I've never had the courage to shoot in anything other than sideways light). I love the first one and the third-to-last. Can't do that at twilight.
