Jess & Justin Say I do!

Backyard wedding | New Hampton, NH

Happy Thursday! It’s with pure excitement that I share this beautiful wedding where Jess & Justin said I do, with you today!

I’ve known Jess and Justin for a few years now since they’re really good friends with my best friend, Lauren. Jess and Justin were both in Lauren and Chris’ wedding 4 years ago. So I was honored to have them ask me to be their photographer too and capture the big day when they say I do.

When we met up at Mack’s Apple Orchard in Londonderry, back in September, I knew that the wedding would be so much fun! Of course, with COVID the wedding plans were changed but Jess and Justin did not let a pandemic stop them from saying I do. The big party may be pushed off til next year but their backyard celebration last weekend was perfect.

Everything was perfect- the weather couldn’t have been better, the family and friends were fabulous and so much fun. Most importantly, the bride and groom looked amazing and you could just FEEL their love wherever they went. My favorite part was the speeches that were just full of emotion, stories of the bride and groom, and love.

Something I love about Jess is her calm nature. She wasn’t stressed about a thing last weekend and she is so easy going. Something I love about Justin is his contagious smile, that you’ll see in so many of these images. He always has a big smile that makes everyone around him smile.

Jess and Justin, your day was magical! Thank you for inviting me to be a part of the start of your forever… it was amazing to get to witness not only the love you have for one another, but also the love that your friends and family have for you! I cannot wait to celebrate with you all as you say I do (again) in May! Enjoy my favorite images from your sweet day as much as I do. I can’t wait for you to see the rest soon!!

Enjoy, you two!
