Julia + Kevin: Married at Glen Arbor Golf Club
That instant summer weather that arrived on Memorial Day Weekend? That was the sunny backdrop for Julia and Kevin’s gorgeous day, which was years in the making. The two met in high school in the summer of 2008, and after years of long distance, they were together in Boston. Today they enjoy life there with their cat Callie (after the New York Rangers former captain). Their wedding was extra special for me, since I got to see one of my favorite families again—more than a few years ago I was a babysitter for Julia and her siblings, and I got to photograph her sister’s wedding, and now hers.
I think Julia’s gown is the best looking gown I’ve ever seen photographed on a hanger. So pretty and feminine.

Keeping cool with a frosty glass before getting ready!
Meanwhile, Kevin unwrapped a watch from his Julia, a gift for their wedding day.
Julia, looking divine.
After the ceremony, we boarded golf carts and toured the rolling hills of Glen Arbor Golf Club, a beautiful green oasis in Bedford Hills, NY.
I love nothing more than when the couple, their families and their guests enjoy the party all night long, and they did!
Happy almost wedding day, J + M–you’re next!
Julia’s grandpa shared advice for a long and happy marriage, and ended with a song for his bride of more than sixty years.
Happy love, Julia and Kevin!
It was my great pleasure to be there to document your day. Wishing you a lifetime of love and adventure!
