Gervasi Vineyard Wedding with Shannon and Tim

Gervasi Vineyard wedding in Canton Ohio

Shannon and Tim were my first of many micro weddings that I have photographed at Gervasi Vineyard since the pandemic started in 2020.  I had photographed other small weddings there and they really have a wonderful setup for them!  I think this made it easier for them to transition into covid friendly intimate weddings when the pandemic started.  Since this wedding I have photographed quite a few of these micro weddings at Gervasi and I have loved EVERY single one of them!  It also doesn’t hurt that I’m literally right down the road from them so it’s an easy commute for me!

Shannon and Tim’s wedding was so beautiful and lovely.  They had a small gathering with close family and friends and got married in the conservatory.  After the ceremony they shared a toast with their loved ones before they did a few photos with me before meeting their guests for a small luncheon to celebrate.

Thank you both so much for allowing me to document your wonderful day!  Congratulations to you both!

New England Trip October 2021 – Part One

Sleepy Hollow Farm in Woodstock VT

Since it’s National “Plan For Vacation” Day I decided it was the perfect time to blog my solo trip this past fall to New England in October!

I went back and forth on going – it was my first trip since Disney in 2019 (almost exactly two years!) and I was a bit nervous to pull the trigger.  I had so many other plans that I canceled due to the pandemic but I felt that the risk was low and decided to go for it.  I was hitting major burnout with weddings.  2021 was SO busy and I know from past years that these fall solo trips really help reset my brain for the remaining rush of the year.

I ended up spending a week in New England (still wasn’t enough time).  I stayed in Woodstock VT, Gorham NH, Wells ME and Provincetown MA.  It was a LOT of driving but SO beautiful.  I highly, highly, highly recommend everyone take this trip at least once in their lives.  The leaves were unreal and I was lucky enough to see the White Mountains at/close to peak.  Normally by this time of the year they are on the tail end but the warm late summer temperatures kept them hanging on a bit longer!

I hope you enjoy this virtual vacation as much as I did!  It’s a LONG blog post, so sorry!  It got so long I decided to split this into two parts!  This is covering the first few days of the trip (Boston to Woodstock, VT and Woodstock to Gorham, NH).

Akron Wedding with Sabrina and Alex

July wedding photos at Firestone Metro Park in Akron Ohio

In July 2020 Sabrina and Alex were my first indoor wedding ceremony (at The Immaculate Heart of Mary) after the pandemic began and the first wedding I photographed with a mask mandate.  It was such a weird time to look back on now but back then everything seemed so scary.  I’m glad that we had a beautiful (albeit hot!) wedding day so we could take full advantage of the beautiful spots at Firestone Metro Park.
