Well, I am beyond excited to be presenting another wedding on this website! I still have several more photoshoots to show you all from the queue, but this rainy weekend I have no casework, I’m focusing JUST on photography and business school apps! Ada and Qizhi had already previously had a formal wedding in China, but they wanted to throw an awesome wedding for their friends in the U.S. as well. The wedding was held at the uber-modern Hilton in Woburn, MA. I love how all the colors worked their way through the wedding and the portraits.
Some details and getting read… I placed the rings against one of the colorful pillows in the lobby. Thanks to my friend Sam Lipoff for lending me a couple of his lenses and his D700 for this weekend (my second camera is coming in about a week). The rings were shot using a 60mm f/2.8 macro lens




Meanwhile, downstairs, the ceremony was getting set up.

One of the flower girls was a little shy before the ceremony!

The ringbearer was enjoying the bubbles

The gorgeous Ada walking down the grand staircase in the hotel towards the ceremony

Other shots I usually try to get during a ceremony is the groom watching his bride come down, and the father clasping their hands together


Cute flower girls!

Going in for the first kiss

We went to the hotel pool to take these formals. I’m LOOVING the color of the drapery!


Beautiful!


A typical Chinese wedding reception is not complete without…. games!


A very energetic first dance =)

Congratulations Ada and Qizhi! It was incredibly fun to be a part of your beautiful wedding, and I have to say, you guys are such great sports throughout all the crazy games! See additional photos here
