Cristin and Keith - Riverside Farm | Pittsfield, Vermont Wedding Photographer

| | 1 comments
As anyone who is waiting for a return e-mail from me can attest, I have been disconnected for a few days. On Thursday, I wandered up to Vermont to shoot the Saturday wedding of Cristin and Keith. I have known Cristin since I can remember, as our parents are best friends from Bristol Mountain, in Rochester New York. It is on that mountain that all of us spent every winter Saturday and Sunday skiing and ice skating down an intense 1200 vertical feet. So it was a great honor to be asked by Cristin and her fiance, Keith, to shoot their mountainside wedding in Vermont.

Their ceremony and reception sites are among the most picturesque places I have photographed. As they said their vows, embraced family and friends, and celebrated the union of their lives, it felt as though they were being held in the palm of God, surrounded by the great natural beauty.

Their guests and they stayed at the Amee Lodge, in Pittsfield, VT:


With this stunning view of the mountains, where Cristin took on the role of timeless bride:

With parents Rick and Colleen, who haven't changed a drop in the 30 years that I have known them...
Traveling on to the church up the hilll, where the boys were waiting for the guests and bride to arrive....
And the pastor, who gave a beautiful service that had everyone alternately in tears or laughter, awaiting the hour.

Two thirty struck, and by some miracle, the ceremony started on time...







The pastor stopped the ceremony and had all of the family from both sides come up to the couple, to surround them with their love, and to place a hand on each, to signify the support that they will give them as they journey together...


And Mr. and Mrs. Webster recede from the altar...


After family photos and the receiving line, we headed back to the lodge to make use of the picturesque waterfalls and scenery for some formals of bride, groom and wedding party...

And then we were off to Riverside Farm for the reception that had everyone laughing, crying, and on their feet dancing, until the last drop.



Congratulations Cristin and Keith! It was such an honor to be a part of this amazing day...
