Maggie and Jacob’s wedding day was everything a fall celebration should be, and it was such a joy to capture it all for them! Starting with a first look and portraits at the stunning Harrington Farm in Princeton, MA, Maggie and Jacob were lucky enough to have the perfect autumn weather—crisp and clear with just enough of a gusty breeze to give Maggie’s long veil a personality of its own! The couple’s style was impeccable, with Maggie in a gorgeous gown featuring a boned bodice that looked absolutely perfect, while Jacob looked sharp in a black tux and bowtie. Surrounded by a wedding party dressed in sleek black suits and burnt orange dresses, they all looked amazing against the backdrop of fall foliage.


The ceremony was held at the First Church of Templeton, a place of great family significance, as both Jacob’s parents and grandparents had been married there. This heartfelt tradition added a touch of legacy to the celebration. Their friend officiated, making the ceremony not only beautiful but deeply personal, and it was touching to see Maggie and Jacob exchange vows that they wrote for each other  in a setting that meant so much to them and their family.


Thanks to Maggie’s meticulous planning, we made it back to Harrington Farm just as the sun began to set, which couldn’t have been more perfect for photos. The reception was filled with joy from start to finish. Heartfelt toasts from family and friends brought laughter and happy tears, and soon after, everyone hit the dance floor. Maggie and her guests joined in with some Irish step dance and even her grandmother joined in, which had the whole room cheering and clapping along.


We couldn’t be happier for Maggie and Jacob, who brought so much warmth and love to their wedding day. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of their celebration and capture these memories. Congratulations, Maggie and Jacob!
