Here are a few more photos from last weekends wedding at Sandy Burr Country Club.

Classic in Black-and-White

August 24, 2009

This weeks wedding was photographed on Saturday, edited on Sunday and online ready for viewing on Monday. We do our best to have the pictures ready for viewing as soon as possible. I know that whenever I photograph an event, I can’t wait to see the photos and I’m sure others feel the same. I’ve decided to post more photos from each wedding so that you can get a better feel for what the wedding looked like, so check back tomorrow for more photos from this event. For her wedding, the bride chose a classic black-and-white color scheme. Here are the vendor details.

The ceremony was held at:
St. Thomas Church in Millis, MA.

Catering by Currier and Chives in Maynard, MA.

Reception at Sandy Burr Country Club in Wayland, MA.
(They did an excellent job. The staff was wonderful, the coordinator was friendly, knows what she’s doing and was a pleasure to work with.)

Flowers by Jodi Roffi.

Entertainment by Good Times Unlimited

Volunteering is Rewarding

August 21, 2009

You may remember a few months ago I volunteered my services for MARE (Mass. Adoption Resource Exchange). I’m so happy to share that the little boy I photographed for the Heart Gallery, sponsored by MARE, has been placed with a family! I hope that the photo was able to facilitate that process. The photo will continue to be on display in the Heart Gallery and feature a “Matched with a Family” sticker on it. The exhibit is currently on display at the Cape Cod Mall in Hyannis and will be moving to the Auburn Mall on Sept. 14. For a schedule as to where the Heart Gallery is traveling to, click here.

Modeling Portfolio

July 31, 2009

This week brought us to the 3rd installment of Martin Montana’s photo session. This young comedian is also working on his modeling/acting portfolio. In 2008, Martin was a finalist in the “Catch A New Rising Star” competition in addition to appearing on Comcast Cable’s “Comedy Open Mic” for the second time. He’s funny! If you’d like to check out his next event go to MartinMontana.com. To see our last photo shoot, click here.

Get ready! This wedding has a lot of photos. There are so many that I like, I’ve decided to just go with it. Hopefully you’ll enjoy seeing them all. This wedding took place at Granite Links Golf Club in Quincy, MA., and was catered by The Gourmet Caterers, yum. The ceremony took place at the Holy Family Church in Rockland, MA. The DJ, who was seriously among the best I’ve heard was John Wells from the Event Connection. The videographer was Video Visions Forever. I’ve also attached a sample photo taken from our photo booth alternative, a faux photo booth or what I lovingly call the fauxto-booth. It’s been really fun bringing it to weddings, people have really enjoyed it. For more info email me Edson DiasPhoto com. Enjoy!

Check us out in the current issue of New England Gala Weddings magazine, Summer/Fall 2009 on page 80. We unfortunately didn’t get a photo credit for this one, but it’s surely a DiasPhoto.

Butterfly Place

July 21, 2009

We recently took a trip with the baby to The Butterfly Place in Westford, MA. She totally loved it. They have a list available, that makes it easy to learn the names. For example, in the first photo is Blue Morpho (Morpho peleides) and in the second, Rice Paper (Idea leuconoe).

Here are the latest photographs from DiasPhoto. This couple, (like all of our clients) were great to work with. A loving couple who planned a sweet wedding full of smiles and welcoming hearts. The ceremony took place at St. Mary’s Church in Milford, followed by a reception at the DoubleTree Hotel in Milford. For info on their florist check out Wildside Florist, also in Milford, Konditor Meister made the cake, and DJ Dan Maloof kept the crowd moving. The story behind the dreamy book-in-the-tree photo is pretty cute. The bride would spend hours in this tree as a child, reading. I thought it to be a really heartwarming memory for the family. They were all so wonderful to work with, I’m happy to share this wedding with you.

Photo Booth Alternative

July 14, 2009

Congratulations to Kathleen and Michael! This past weekend’s wedding was a smash hit. Everyone had so much fun with the backdrop that we brought with us to the wedding. The photos shown here look like they were taken in a photo booth. But actually, they were simply taken by me, in front of this Damask backdrop that we inconspicuously placed in the corner of the reception area. Guests kept coming up and asking us to have their picture taken. This isn’t exactly like a photo booth because there isn’t anything to walk into and their aren’t any filmstrip photos to take home with you. But on the positive side, this doesn’t cost any extra. We’re happy to bring the backdrop with us to your wedding if you decide that you’d like that, at no extra charge. Wedding Photo Booths are great fun but can cost $1000-$2000. Photo booths can also be big and take up a lot of space. Having just a backdrop means that you have a real live human being taking your photo. That means photos with better expressions, and people always fit inside the frame with no one getting cut out of the picture. If you’re considering doing something fun at your wedding but are shying away from the costly photo booth, consider working with us. For more information, send us an email Edson@DiasPhoto.com.

Red Sox Baby

July 10, 2009

As some of you may know, we have a traveling photo studio. This works especially well for baby and pregnancy photos. We photographed this young ball player (and obvious Red Sox fan) a few days ago at the family’s home. Baby and family portraits always go so much smoother at people’s houses. This portrait session was no different. Gotta love the little buggers!
