Posted on October 12, 2011 | by Shanti

I had the pleasure of capturing such a genuine and lovely couple on an amazing fall day here on the coastside with another amazing photographer, Simone Anne….and it couldn’t have been any more perfect.

The location: The beach

The couple: beautiful

The weather: tropical and lovely

The venue: Sams Chowder House (fell in love all over again) Danielle Lawrence and her crew are amazing!

The food: Lobster and chowder

The party: glowing, so much love floating around for this couple it was infectious!

I don’t feel like writing anymore, as I think the pictures need to talk now. Enjoy!

I just wanted to thank you and Shannon so very much for making us feel like we had our friends their taking the pictures! You were very patient, especially when you first got there and none of us were ready and I was still sort of stressed from trying to finish the set up across the street! But after getting ready and starting to take pictures everything just fell into place. We had a number of people comment on Wow the photographer was everywhere. And you were.

We, Marty and I had almost as much fun as the kids did! The party/dancing didn’t end till I started blowing candles out at 1:30am!

Thank you very much for being professional and low key at the same time that worked for us perfectly!!

We had just the best experience with Shanti that we could have hoped for. Shanti’s photos are unbelievably beautiful and well-composed. She had an excellent balance between portraits of us and candid shots of our guests. Throughout the planning process, she was incredibly attentive to our silly questions and very quick to get us our engagement photos and wedding photos. She’s a pleasure to work with. While Shanti’s talents and professionalism are stellar, what really makes her stand out is her amazing personality. She was almost as excited as we were, which made us feel completely at ease when she was on the other side of the lens. We didn’t really think about how much this matters, and I’m glad that we ended up on the right side of surprised! I can’t recommend Shanti’s work enough. We were so pleased to have her as part of our special day.
