Borrowed & Blue - Sweet Celebration in Boston - By Tracy Rodriguez Photography

View fullsize

I cannot tell you how much I absolutely loved photographing Julie and Patrick's intimate wedding day in Boston last year. And I am so thrilled to now see it featured on Borrowed & Blue.

Julie and Patrick got married last summer in the Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park in Boston, MA. One of their closest friends married them surrounded by a handful of friends and family for a truly emotional and intimate ceremony. While I was only with them for a couple of hours, the love was palpable from the first minute. And that's what I absolutely love about intimate weddings like theirs.

Borrowed & Blue - Spring Barn Wedding in Groton by Tracy Rodriguez Photography

I am thrilled to see Samantha and Michael's wedding featured on Borrowed & Blue! I absolutely loved photographing their wedding day at the Barn at Gibbet Hill last May. It was such a beautiful day. The sunny, blue sky over the vast green landscape was absolutely breathtaking to photograph.

And, I may be biased because this vendor is one of my closest friends, but I have to say that the blue paper succulent name cards made by Lizzie Doherty Designs were absolutely stunning. You won't want to miss them! Definitely be in touch with her for your wedding florals.

Holyoke, MA Wedding at The Log Cabin {Elizabeth & Jason}

I first met Elizabeth and Jason for their engagement session at Larz Anderson Park in Brookline, MA, last fall. Elizabeth and Jason brought along not only their two adorable and friendly dogs but also Elizabeth's mom and good friend, making it the largest engagement session entourage I've ever had! And, one thing that has always stuck with me was that Elizabeth's Dad hand carved pumpkins with their wedding date for them to celebrate their engagement and have for the photo session. It was such a nice gesture and I loved capturing images of the pumpkins, the pups, and of course, the couple! {If you missed it, you can check out Elizabeth and Jason's engagement session blog post here.}

On their wedding day, Elizabeth's bridesmaids created little DIY wooden sun tokens so that they would have "sunshine in their pockets" all day and night. Given the rainy forecast, it was such a treat to see the girls pulling out their sunshine all night long. Another close friend of Elizabeth's is incredibly talented and did her hair in a gorgeous fishtail braid. I envy that kind of hair magic!

With friends and family like these, it was easy to see that Elizabeth and Jason are truly blessed. Their families were so incredibly welcoming and sweet to me with every interaction I had. I feel lucky to have met them. And I know that the rain must have meant continued good luck for the happy couple!

And now, please enjoy a handful of photographs from their wedding collection. This was my last wedding of the season so check back again in the spring for more weddings in 2017!

Here's a big thank you to the vendors who made this day possible!

Boston, MA City Hall Wedding {Julie + Patrick}

This wedding has been featured on Borrowed & Blue!

Julie and Patrick held an intimate wedding with their closest friends and family this past summer in Boston. Their good friend married them in a beautiful ceremony in the Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park right on the water. Originally, the couple was planning to get married at Boston City Hall and we were going to walk to the park for photographs but their friend pointed out that she could marry them anywhere and why not hold the ceremony under the beautiful green, sun-splashed canopy as well. A street performer played some jazzy Sinatra, there was a light summer breeze, and the mood was perfect.

I absolutely love photographing intimate weddings because they are just that, intimate. The sometimes-over-the-top details are left behind and the true love intention of the day, shared with those closest to you, remains. I couldn't help but tear up a bit when they said their vows. The way they looked at each other and down towards Julie's belly and their little one on the way had everyone a little teary-eyed and full of smiles.

The couple chose Lucca in the North End to enjoy some delicious Italian food so we grabbed some photographs along the way in a few of Boston's iconic brick alleyways. I cannot wait to share a handful from their collection with you.

Best of luck to you, Julie and Patrick, and so much love to your little bundle of joy, too!
