B&W and Classic

August 27, 2009

Here are the last few photos from the classic B&W wedding at Sandy Burr Country Club last weekend. We have 4 events this weekend. I’m shooting 2 weddings, Kelly our associate photographer is shooting one and we have a post-wedding photo shoot on Sunday which should be really fun. Check back next week for tons of new photos.


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

Beauty Abound

August 21, 2009

This is the first of a 2 part maternity/baby photo session. The main image of the couple on the bed is meant to be a diptych. The second photo will be taken once the baby is here. The photo will be set up identically to this one, only the baby will be in the middle. We had such a beautiful photo session with this couple. The are so in love and it couldn’t have been more apparent. They must have really been focusing their hearts and minds on each other and the baby during the photo session because I feel a deeper vibration in the images. The couple was easy to work with seeing as they are both actors and artists. Their openness to my ideas allowed this shot to happen. Originally, I was concerned that a photo in a bed would be a bit too risque for a pregnancy session. Often times, ideas for photos sound really strange beforehand. But they went for it and I feel it was a very successful photo! It just goes to show… trust your photographer even if the idea sounds a little crazy : )

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.

Family Day Photos: Part 4

August 11, 2009


This was my favorite session of the day. It was the last session and with the sun going down, I was able to get more creative. I’ve photographed this family through out the years. Our history goes way back. I photographed their engagement session, the wedding, the pregnancy/maternity, the newborn baby, all the way up until now with the baby at 18 months. Photography is such a wonderful job. I’ve gotten to document, witness and be a part of this family for so many important events. These are a few of my fav’s. Hope you like them ; )

Family Day Photos: Part 1

August 11, 2009

Our recent family day at Borderland State Park went well. We took some baby photos, pregnancy photography, family portraits and had lots of fun. The weather was beautiful and the kids were able to enjoy the park. I’d say it was a success. If you are interested in family photos amidst the fall foliage, email us at Edson@DiasPhoto.com subject: family photos. They make great holiday cards!
