Destination Wedding - Alyson’s Orchard, NH

As a New England wedding photographer, I am extremely fortunate to witness amazing weddings in some of the most beautiful settings. Alyson’s Orchard is up there on my favorite New England destination weddings list for their stunning views of the orchards, the picturesque town of Walpole, the Connecticut River Valley, the serene spring-fed ponds, and my favorite - the rolling fields. There’s no shortage of backdrops to capture the love of a couple on their wedding day!When Kim and Barry approached me to photograph their wedding and engagement I was excited about their venue choice to say the least! I knew we’d be a great fit when they explained their proposal was on Mt. Monadnock and they wanted to do a climbing engagement session there!Here are some of my favorite images from their wedding. Enjoy!








The barn at the Inn at Valley Farms provided interesting textures for the bride's portraits.

A nice touch to include portraits of the couple's family members at the reception.

Divas Cake and Confections did an amazing job on main cake and the unique grooms cake.
