The hand-made "Reserved for wedding limo" parking sign out front gave away which house was Lydia’s. She wasn’t expecting George and I at the house, but Boston traffic had been kind to us, so we decided to swing in before heading over to St. Clement’s to meet up with Kenny before the ceremony. You may…

I grew up just outside of Davis Square in Somerville, MA. I lived in a mint green house on Chandler Street. We had a small fenced in back yard and my neighbor’s house was a good 20 feet away from ours. We lived there because my dad was the pastor of the West Somerville Church…

I’ll never forget the night of Caroline and Tim’s engagement session this past August. It was just one of those perfect nights to be at the beach. Likewise, I don’t think Caroline and Tim will ever forget their wedding day. It was perfect for them. George and I arrived at the Pinehills Golf Club a…

That’s what happened when I met Brian and Erin. Brian reminds me so much of my good friend Ted. The more I…

I met up with Lindsay and Jeff fortheir engagement session at one of my favorite local places for photography – War Memorial Park in West Bridgewater. I had been here just yesterday for a family portrait session, along with at least four other photographers working in the same area. It’s an incredibly popular place in…

I first met Kerri WAY back in the daywhen we worked together at Putnam Investments in one of their call centers. By the time I arrived, Kerri was a Senior Participant Services Representative. Titles always make me laugh. Oh, I guess I’m the President of Jeff Turner Photography. How dumb does that sound? But I…

George and I meet so many peoplewhen we shoot weddings. Our world gets smaller each time we shoot one. At a wedding this past January, I noticed a young couple ripping up the dance floor and just having a good ‘ol time. The guy was the bride’s brother Mike. He was dancing with his fiancé…
