When Lori and Phil decided to tie the knot, they knew they wanted their wedding to be as unique and vibrant as their love story. And what better place to celebrate than at Jimmy’s Jazz Club in Portsmouth, NH—a venue brimming with history, character, and a whole lot of soul!

We photographed Jess and Jimmy’s engagement session in 2019 before COVID was even a thing, so coming back together on their actual scheduled wedding date felt like nothing short of a miracle. It was a warm late fall day in Sandown, NH. Rain hung in the air, threatening to change the couple’s plans to have an outdoor ceremony (which it eventually did). That being said, we love a good grey New England day during the fall - just look at how the colors pop everywhere…

Antonio’s pizza, champagne, wildflowers, sunsets, OH MY. Every element showed up for this show-stopper of an engagement session…
