Back last year, I got a message from a good friend of mine, Norm Yelle, an amazing DJ, and all around fun, but a little crazy friend. He let me know he sent a couple over to me and that they were highly interested in booking me! Kristyn & Eric sat down with me and instantly, we had a good time. Eric is beyond funny. I couldn't stop laughing at everything he said during our consultation. Kristyn is so kind, I can't tell you how many times she apologized for her future husband's actions. I told her "There is absolutely no need to apologize. Eric is so funny! I can see why you want to marry him!" Their day was absolutely spectacular. It was filled with every emotion in the book. From Kristyn worrying that everything was perfect, to Eric tearing up when she walked down the aisle, to an amazing fun reception with Norm. 

Seriously, I had so much fun with these two. Here's just a sneak peek from their big day. I can't wait to show you the rest.

Maggie + Tyler are the sweetest couple ever. From the first time we spoke, all the way to their wedding day they were so kind and so loving. They both took time out of their busy lives to meet with me multiple times before their big day, and it soon started to feel like I was meeting up with friends rather than clients. 

Their wedding in Weekapaug couldn't have turned out better. At the start of the day, we thought mother nature wasn't going to be so nice to us since it was pouring out. That didn't change Maggie & Tyler's attitude. They kept positive and it all worked out in the end! Just around the time Jenn and I arrived, the rain stopped and the skies cleared up (I maybe prayed a couple of times driving down to have the rain go away haha!) From the beautiful backyard her uncle provided, to the delicious food by A Thyme to Cook, and to end the night with the amazing band East Coast Soul (seriously, if you're getting married, check these guys out), the day turned out perfect. 

We can't wait to share more photos from their big day but for now...Here are some highlights!

With love,
Ryan

I met Victoria way back when I was still attending Hallmark Institute of Photography. At that time, she was a hair stylist at a local salon and we had worked together on a few projects for her portfolio and for mine. Fast forward 4 years later, I received an email from her and I couldn't have been more excited because she not only was a client of mine in the past, but a friend. 

Steven & her are a bunch of fun. I couldn't tell you how many times I cracked up laughing doing their formals. There's two are goofballs and I love it.  Their wedding came out beautiful considering that Topstone hasn't done a wedding in over 10 years. You would have never noticed. All the floral arrangements and decor Victoria and her family came together and made. So yes, it's totally possible. The dress and vail was even handmade by her grandmother. These ladies have some skill let me tell you.

Congratulations you two. Love you both!

Thanks again to Topstone Golf Course in Ct for making this a beautiful day for Steven & Victoria!

Last year I received an inquiry from Minneapolis. It's not very often I get inquiries from that area so I was eager to open it. From that day forward, a new friendship that formed over 1,300 miles away. 

Colby & Erica met each other while going to school in Rhode Island. From dates at The Duck & Bunny (where they got their amazing cupcake tower from) to sushi dinners at Sakura, these two formed a bond that would eventually lead to marriage. When choosing a place to tie the knot, they had to come back to their roots. Bittersweet isn't in RI, but it's close by in beautiful Westport, MA. I photographed one of my all time favorite couples there: Alyce & Josh. Erica & Colby's photos, combined with their amazing families and friends, really made the day come together beautifully. 

Congratulations!

PS. Please ship me more granola bars boo boo!

With love,
Ryan

A lot of photographers say that the winter sucks for taking photos but honestly, I think it's an opportunity to be different. Not a lot of couples take photos in the winter, therefore it's unique and special, just like these two. 

Meet: Isabelle & Alessandro 

If you've been keeping up with the blog, I've met Isabelle about 8 years ago and Alessandro about 5 years ago. Their "across the world love" quickly grew into something more and now they're getting married this August and I am honestly honored to be their wedding photographer. A lot of times, I'd decline to be a photographer at a friends wedding, especially a friend who feels more like family. But for these two, I honestly can't wait for their big day. It's going to be magical. 

I love you guys! Enjoy :)

Location: Slater Park - Pawtucket, RI
