The Growing Kennedy Family!

It's always a pleasure to catch up with the Kennedy family, and they have grown this year!  Introducing little Miles to the clan- only 3 weeks old!  And Sam and Evie just keep getting more and more adorable- I love their smiles and enthusiasm!  We had a great time in Old Town and so glad the grandparents could join us this year too!!2015-09-28_0001 2015-09-28_0002 2015-09-28_0003 2015-09-28_0004 2015-09-28_0005 2015-09-28_0006 2015-09-28_0007 2015-09-28_0008 2015-09-28_0010 2015-09-28_0011 2015-09-28_0012 2015-09-28_0013 2015-09-28_0014 2015-09-28_0015 2015-09-28_0016 2015-09-28_0017 2015-09-28_0018

Wedding Day Tip: How to be a Hero

weddingtipbout It never fails to happen on wedding day- we’re rolling along with photos and it’s time to capture the groomsmen.  They are getting on their jackets, putting on their ties...(why do guys have it so much easier!!) but then the moment of realization- the boutonnieres!

We need them on for pictures!

All the guys stand in a circle like deer in headlights looking at the small flower and pins in fear and trepidation.

How on earth do you put that thing on?

So all eyes go to me–the photographer, who is trying to rally everyone to stay on schedule!   On the inside I'm thinking yikes! I didn't train for this part! But I figure it out and pin some boutonnieres!

So this post is more for me and my pin-stricken fingers (!) but if you find yourself playing any kind of role at a wedding, this is a way to be the hero and help put on some boutonnieres!

Here are two helpful YouTube tutorials I found:
