Well it's official. Two of the nicest people in the world now have a baby...making them the sweetest family of 3 ever...If you know these two, you can attest that I'm not exaggerating! I was so thrilled when Sarah announced she was pregnant, and we've been able to write back and forth for probably over a year now about pregnancy, newborns, my toddler woes, and every day life.
Prior to Lindsay and Kyle's wedding, I figured out that Sarah and Jon weren't too far from the wedding, so I unabashedly asked if I could crash at their house. What a fun get-away for me! We had a delightful mix of having plenty of time to catch up, watch the Olympics, hold Baby Graham, and laugh (a lot!). I had such a nice time. Thank you Hotel Stearns for such a nice stay! Now come to Amherst. I swear our guestroom isn't that small. :)

The lighting was perfect...




Gosh. I just want to see him every day!
I felt pretty gosh darn special to be a part of Lindsay and Kyle's big day. I have known Lindsay since my first year at UNH. She was one of my RAs! Now she's marrying the sweet guy who would make the trek up to see her most weekends. I really got to know his fun personality during their engagement session, and I could totally see how he makes Lindsay smile and laugh. She's a very nice, happy person to begin with, but Kyle really, truly makes her happy.
As you can probably see in the pictures, these two had a ball. It was a hot one at the beautiful Lake Winnepasaukee, but they took it all in stride and seemed to just love every minute of their big day. It was beautiful. Loving families, happy guests, fun bridal party!
What a fantastic reception too!

Just type in Lindsay's maiden name.
Enjoy!
I had the best time this past weekend with Allie and Charlie. They were married right in the heart of Casco Bay at the Portland Ocean's Gateway. I felt right at home because I was back in Maine (in one of my favorite cities), but it was really their loving family that made it just perfect and so inviting. We spent the earlier part of the afternoon getting ready at her parents' house, which was filled top to bottom with her dad's impressive artwork (he's an art teacher). He carved the wedding (pie!) topper pieces. Just amazing.
You may recognize another couple in some of the photos from my last wedding. I must say it was pretty special for me to be able to work with Allie and Erica throughout the fall semester to see how their details and plans were shaping up. Allie and Charlie made all of the centerpieces by hand. They cut every single wine bottle to make the votive holders.
Allie and Charlie: I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek. I am loving going through all of your photos. Thank you for inviting me to document this special day with you both and your amazing families. (I had to include the belt excursion in there!). It's not every day you get to go with a groom to JC Penney and chauffeur the groomsmen around Portland.
After you hit "play", go ahead and click to view full screen (bottom right hand corner) to fully experience the slideshow. The entire wedding will be up on my client portal within the next week or so: http://www.bethwallacephotography.com/clients.html, and just type in this lovely bride's maiden name as the password.
As probably everyone knows...I have a best friend named Beth. It's confusing for some but not for us...However, we've decided it might be confusing pretty soon for Owen and Holden. They each have a "Momma" and an "Auntie Beth."
They all came to visit us in our new home! Holden can now say "Brian" (or Bri-Bri), "Beth" (very exciting for me although he also does the sign for bath while he says it...), and he can say "Owieeee."
I love these pictures of Owen and his parents. I think I took all these shots in about 15-20 minutes in total...Not bad!
Well, it's true. Our little boy is officially 18 months old, and in my book that means...he's officially a toddler. He walks, he talks, he asserts...
I'm playing around with a new slideshow feature offered on my site, which I plan on showcasing for at least a few of my upcoming brides. Thank you to my friend Nicole at http://www.nmdphotography.com for guidance and support!
