Ursula & Danny had a fabulous German themed wedding. It incorporated all things Newport with seaside photos and a venue on the beach. There was lively German dancing to the authentic band and lots of carousel riding! A fun, fun day for sure!

Here is what Ursula wrote me upon receiving her pictures:

“Thanks so much! You’ve got some really fantastic ones in here. We think we have the best wedding pictures ever! We are so happy to have had you shoot our wedding. You made everyone look fabulous!”

Danny waiting for Ursula at the end of the aisle.

I really liked the mood of this image. It’s Ursula’s parents sharing the hymnal during the ceremony.

This little guy was getting antsy…but very quiet at the same time!! So cute!

A nice moment with Danny & one of the groomsmen.

I love flower girl balls!

Ursula is German, and the reception was all about her German heritage! It was so cool! This little lady and her band of gentlemen tore it up!

The flower girls broken leg didn’t stop her from any wedding day fun. She was such a trooper!

I couldn’t get enough of these two! So adorable.

I believe this was “Lean Back”

Ursula & Danny’s initials on the wall…I added their rings for a Faith Dugan ring shot!

I love the spring tulips on the tables and the candy station! Candy stations are HOT and everyone LOVES them. I like to pull some colorful candy and do some cute ring shots.

Thank you for inviting me to document your wedding, Lisa & Tomas! I saw your Hawaii honeymoon on Facebook! Looks like you guys had so much fun relaxing and touring the islands. I love all your unique tree pictures, too Lisa!

EDITED TO ADD: Here is Lisa’s reaction to her gallery–

“Thanks so much, Faith! I keep gushing but I am so impressed by all your gorgeous pics. You don’t really have time to stop and enjoy yourself on the actual day of the wedding so your pictures truly brought the whole day to life for me! What a treasury of moments! Again, thanks so much!”

Kara and Niall entertained my wild requests, like, “Oh look at those curves in the sand from the polluted water! Those look cool…go stand near them!” (You’ll see the photo in a second and it will make sense) Thanks for being fun and up for anything!

For favors, guests received a custom printed beer koozies and starfish or heart shaped wine corks. The corks also doubled as place cards. Very cute idea you know is going to get used! And lastly, we played with sparklers on the beach before heading home. What a great wedding!!

At the reception, they had this wicked cool band from Boston, called The Chicken Slacks. You can listen to their music on the website I listed below. I liked Chicken Slacks because we actually conversed during dinner!! Typically, the vendors sit together during dinner and you wouldn’t believe how many bands don’t say a word to the photo/video people. But me and the guys from the Slacks had a lovely conversation. Diamond D is one cool guy and knows how to keep your guests up and dancing. And you know what was the best part? They didn’t play “Brickhouse”, “Don’t Stop Believin”, “Livin on a Prayer” or the “ChaCha Slide”. It was a nice change. Check them out if you’re looking for something different.

I’m obsessed with shoe pictures.




St. Lucy’s is so cool…the architecture allows for some really cool angles.



The getway Vette! Way faster then a limo! I was behind Niall when pulled out of the church parking lot…wow, that engine just sings.


I love this picture!!!! It’s so simple, but I love love love it.



This is the shot I was talking about earlier…
