Being a photographer in RI certainly has it perks and one of them is photographing a Hope Club Wedding! The Hope Club is a gorgeous old building at the corner of historic Benefit Street and Benevolent Street. There isn’t a prettier portion of Providence in my opinion. Kate and Chris said their I Do’s directly across the street from the Hope Club at the stunning First Unitarian Church which manages to be both understated and dramatic. The day was perfect for a post ceremony snap & stroll around the block.  Stopping at a particularly pretty home, we were approached by the kind owners who invited us into their secret courtyard, affording us a one of a kind backdrop for very special portraits. Kate and Chris are down to earth, adorable, and caring and it feels good just to be around them. We’re so lucky that we were able to reap the photo benefits of their good karma!
