There’s the real story of how Emily and Shawn met, and then there’s the TV version I’ve made up in my head. You see, Emily is a ADA in NY and Shawn is an NYPD detective. Go right ahead and imagine a courtroom scene where they meet and sparks fly. That is how I prefer to think they met. Either way I’m glad they met because otherwise I would not have had such a wonderful wedding to photograph!<\/p>\n

The wedding was held at Shawn’s cousin’s property in Appleton, Maine. It has been in the family for generations, and his cousin has transformed it into the gorgeous country home it is now. Emily and I spent a fair amount of time before the wedding discussing the wedding details and batting around ideas about certain ways to document the day. It was good fun coming up with (and borrowing some) ideas together, and I am thankful that Emily gave me the time and space to make it all happen.<\/p>\n

Did I mention that it was a hot and humid summer? It was one of those days where you just have to give into it and accept that you are going to be a sweaty, hot mess all day. It is safe to say that this was the second hottest wedding of the summer and perhaps the buggiest. But it hardly spoiled the day for anyone. All of Emily’s hard work in planning the wedding paid off and the guests enjoyed themselves well into the night. As I drove home down Route 17 (again), it was with a smile at having just spent a wonderful night.<\/p>\n

Best wishes to Emily and Shawn — and doggie Diesel (the real star of the wedding) — for a life filled with love and gratitude. It has been a real honor and joy to get to know them both.<\/p>\n

Some of the highlights from the day are below. To see more you can take a look at the slideshow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Kind words from Emily: \u201cAmy, we are thrilled beyond words with the photos. We\u2019re so very glad that you were the one who captured our day. I\u2019m so surprised at some of the photos you shot, given that you seemed to blend right into the crowd and I didn\u2019t know you were there for many of them. Our priest also commented that it\u2019s very common for photographers\/videographers to steal the show during the ceremony, but that you and Josh were perfect. Thank you!!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
