Summer Garden Wedding Editorial | New England Wedding Photographer
As a photographer at this summer garden wedding editorial, I had the privilege of capturing the essence of romance and the latest wedding trends for the upcoming wedding season.
The vision for this editorial was to create a breathtaking scenes that embodied the beauty and elegance of a summer garden wedding. The color palette for this shoot was a stunning blend of vibrant yellows. I was honored to be a part of this collaborative effort to bring this summer garden wedding editorial to life. This editorial will inspire and delight couples planning their summer garden weddings!
The first scene of our summer garden wedding editorial displayed bridal suite elegance. We began by showcasing a soft and beautifully designed flat lay, expertly curated by Of Light and Letters. The flat lay featured delicate details of an exquisite wedding invitation suite with sprinkles of flower petals.
In the same suite, I was able to capture the stunning bride, Aline. Bathed in the warm, natural light streaming in through the window, Aline posed gracefully, allowing us to immortalize her radiant beauty and the serene atmosphere of the bridal suite.

The third scene of our summer garden wedding editorial took a decidedly more fashion-forward turn, showcasing a stunning modern couture wedding gown in a vogue-inspired bridal shoot.

The next scene of our summer garden wedding editorial took a delightful turn as we transitioned into the cocktail hour portion of the day. The highlight of this segment was a charming lemonade stand that showcased a selection of signature cocktails, adding a playful and refreshing element to the festivities.
One of my favorite moments was capturing our model, Kendal, dressed in an iconic yellow dress that perfectly complemented the vibrant garden setting. Kendal exuded a sense of effortless elegance and joy.
In addition to Kendal’s solo shots, we also had the pleasure of bringing in the lovely couple Corrie and Matt for some sweet and romantic portraits. Corrie and Matt’s genuine affection for one another shone through in every frame.
