Spring Garden Micro Wedding & White Mountain Adventure Session

Who says you can’t have the best of both worlds? Cameron & Hope certainly didn’t stop themselves with their beautiful and intentional intimate wedding. They made sure their wedding was a reflection of their personalities and their love of travel/adventure.

It rained and rain, then it stopped raining for just the evening of their wedding. Their all outside garden wedding in the beautiful forest of southern NH was held at the Gardens of Ucanoonuc and to this very moment I am so grateful the rain stopped and the sun showed through about an hour before leaving home for their venue. Hope arrived to get ready in the garden house and their whole intimate wedding of 25 guests followed shortly behind. As she prepared with her bridesmaids, the guests wandered the gardens. An emotional and intentional ceremony followed with a tree planting unity ceremony. Hope and Cameron made sure every moment of the day reflected their exact vision as a couple.

Fast forward three weeks, the couple is freshly back from their Italian honeymoon and meeting me at a trailhead in the mountains. We hiked first to a dramatic waterfall, which thanks to a very rainy spring in New Hampshire, was flowing like I have never before seen. It was June, and the weather still had a little chill in the air. After we drove a few minutes down the road in Crawford Notch to one of my personal favorite accessible views in the mountains. They relieved and talked about the favorite parts of their wedding day, then tried their first dance again in their hiking boots while we attempted to not get covered in mud!

Cameron and Hope made sure that their wedding experience was everything they ever imagined they could have with their closest family and friends, adventure, and of course lots of time outside.
