Janelle And Julian's Newport Oceanfront Belle Mer Wedding | Newport Wedding Photographer

I first met Janelle and Julian at the end of last summer for their Narragansett engagement session. They gave me a tour of the URI campus where they met, we ran around the beach until sunset, and capped off the night with some of the best fried seafood I've ever had. It's been such a busy year for all of us that time seemed to pass in the blink of an eye, and suddenly it was the morning of their Newport wedding at Belle Mer!!! 

These two are some of the hardest workers I know, and their soul-commitment to each other and their families is clear to anyone who meets them. They are also FUN. AS. HELL. and brought Beyoncé, laughter, and some killer dance moves to their wedding day. They honored Janelle's mother's Caribbean roots, as well as Julian's Jewish heritage, while making sure every single guest had the time of their lives. 

Janelle and Julian, thank you from the bottom of my heart for inviting me to document such a momentous occasion in your lives. Newport was so beautiful to explore with y'all and your bridal party, but even more, Anna and I were blown away at your hospitality. You, your families, and your amazing bridal party made sure that every second we not only had what we needed, but that we were also having FUN. I hope you smile just as big and laugh just as much looking back over these photos-- I know I did. All my love to you two.
