Seth and Tobbi are one of those couples that you fall in love with too. I knew from the moment I first met them for coffee when she was in town checking out wedding vendors that it was a perfect match – them as a couple and me as their photographer. Tobbi is from the Chicago area and has three handsome sons. She and Seth met online and he proposed last winter at one of their favorite places on Marginal Way in Ogunquit, ME. They had only nine months from separate cities to plan this beautiful day and, as you can see from these photographs, did a remarkable job. I particularly loved the Sand Ceremony where, as they joined together as a new family, they poured different colors of sand into a glass jar symbolizing this unity. Beautiful. It was also a delight to meet Harriet, Seth’s 90 year old grandmother, who had flown in from Florida for the nuptials and did a special reading. Their day was so intimate and personal. It really was the perfect day for the perfect couple. And I am truly thankful to have been a part of it all. Congrats Seth + Tobbi!
