Brieanne + Kevin // Married! | Independence Harbor Wedding

September 29, 2016

Brieanne and Kevin are married! These two sweet souls got married on a lovely September morning at Independence Harbor in southern MA. Their love story includes a matchmaker; they were introduced by a mutual friend who knew they’d be perfect for each other! And look where that moment brought them 🙂 It was a joy to capture the start of this new chapter of their love story. Here are some of my favorites! wedding-at-independence-harbor-stephanie-rita-photography-in-freetown_0000

Cue me saying: “Don’t worry, when you’re with your favorite person, the camera doesn’t really exist, just do your thing.” And they did 😉 wedding-at-independence-harbor-stephanie-rita-photography-in-freetown_0015

He was SO excited for them to open it! I know there’s a Game of Thrones reference in there, though I’m not sure what it is. But clearly they all get it 😉 wedding-at-independence-harbor-stephanie-rita-photography-in-freetown_0028
Brieanne and her dad danced to the same song my dad and I danced to at my wedding and let me tell you I CRIED, just being honest. ‘Butterfly Kisses’ will always do that to me.wedding-at-independence-harbor-stephanie-rita-photography-in-freetown_0029
