Siobhan & Paul - June 12th

Siobhan & Paul were married on Saturday June 12th at St. Joan of Arc church in Orleans and had their reception at the always beautiful Captain Linnell House.

The day started off with lite drizzle but ended up with some peaks of sun just as we headed down to Skaket Beach for beach photos. :-) Here are a few samples including a b&w of Siobhan & Paul kissing on the tidal flats of Skaket Beach.... the tidal ripples in the sand always make for some wonderful artistic shots... so cool!!

Aryn & Jared - The Pink Bicycle

Aryn & Jared were married on the beach in Dennisport on Saturday June 6th. It was a beautiful ceremony with family and friends while the waters of Nantucket Sound lapped at their feet.

One of the many cool things about this wedding was the pink bicycle Jared gave Aryn as a present before the wedding... (he had a more man type color for his bike).... :-). Planning ahead, Aryn added 'thank you' signs on the back of the bikes. She's planning to use one of these shots as her thank you card.

Congratulations again! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your day!

"Dear Chris,

Stephanie & Steve

I met Stephanie & Steve last June when they booked me for their wedding this past May 24th. They were so much fun to work with! :-) Here are a few samples from their engagement shoot at Sea St. beach in Dennis as well as their wedding at the Red Jacket Resort in Yarmouth.

Thanks guys!

PPOCC Safari - Race Point Beach

Hi all,

Last night, several photographer friends and members of the PPOCC (Professional Photographers of Cape Cod) went out to Race Point Beach in Provincetown for an evening of night landscape photography.... along with sitting by a great bonfire, eating s'mores and sharing photo stories... :-)

The sky wasn't clear enough to see the stars but the high clouds passing overhead provided a nice effect in the moonlight. The top photo below shows our bonfire on the beach, the Moon in the sky and the letters PPOCC spelled out with a red flashlight during the time exposure. This technique is called painting with light. I used a Canon 5D and 17-40L lens at f/11. The exposure was 43 seconds at ISO400.

It was a really fun evening at one of the most beautiful spots on the Cape! Enjoy the view!

Chris

P.S. Ed, Christine and Marcia make great bonfire models....... ;-')
