Lesley and Stephen

Weddings

Lesley and Stephen were married on August 23rd at OceanCliff in Newport, Rhode Island.

Lesley got ready at the Hyatt, which is … OH such a nice way to treat yourself before our big day!!!

Stephen LOVES architecture and that’s the reason they chose OceanCliff! He was drawn to the infamous arch and couldn’t resist its pull. The structure is fascinating.

After the formals on the grounds of OceanCliff, we headed off to another stunning location … Salve Regina, in Newport, RI. The building is truly lovely and makes a picturesque backdrop.

Cocktail hour took place outside, on yet another perfect day in Newport. There was a very special champagne toast and then Mystique took to the stand and the guests rocked the dance floor for the rest of the evening!

Mike Picard was served as the videographer for the evening – Mike’s great at what he does and is always wonderful to work alongside at weddings.

It was a great night and I’m glad I was able to be there to share in it!

They had a great custom Guest Book! Everyone loved it.
Mystique rockin’ the house!
UPDATE!
While I was shooting a wedding at OceanCliff on the same day, one year later, I just so happened to see Lesley and Stephen walking out of Oceancliff, and when I caught up with them, they told me that they were celebrating their one year anniversary! Hope your anniversary was wonderful Lesley and Stephen!

Nice to meet you! I’m a pint-sized (frequently caffeinated) fireball of energy, and building genuine connections is at the heart of everything I do. One of the most meaningful parts of what we do is watching our couples go from “I do” to starting families, then returning for newborn and family photography, and even branding sessions as their lives and businesses grow. Being part of every season of your story is truly the heart of what we do.
