Hitched Studios bio picture
  • Welcome to our Blog!

    Hi. Thanks so much for visiting our new blog.  Tara Morris and Ben Wight are Hitched Studios:  the best friend wedding photography duo.  We're located in Boston, but we love to shoot anywhere on our planet.

    This blog is where you'll find a nice/large sampling of our latest weddings and engagment shoots, as well as anything else we feel like announcing.   We'll be sure to post enough photographs from each shoot so you can get a good feeling of the energy of the day. 

    We feel really lucky to be able to photograph people in love on such a beautiful day in their lives.  We love being Hitched Studios, and we thank you so much for visiting our blog. 

Krysta and Laura: engaged.

Well, hooty hoo!  Equal marriage rights meets  Hitched Studios, and it’s about time!!   What’s the deal, gay peeps!?  Why don’t you love us?  I have a tattoo AND wear clogs AND live in JP AAAAND have a cat.  Isn’t that enough to let me at least photograph you people!? So, I didn’t play softball.  So what?   And don’t get me started on how much Ben loves gay dudes.  Ben hates sports and says things like ‘I like what’s happening over here in this little moment’ when he talks about interior design.  Isn’t that enough?

So, ya, Laura and Krysta are super awesome and smart and gorgeous and fun and in love and we loved shooting them! Girls can marry girls in our state so besides Martha’s Vineyard and cranberry bogs, that’s my favorite part about Massachusetts.

Enjoy. Peace.  Marry Who Ya Love.

Melissa and Cecil: Married in Manchester By The Sea.

How’s this for a coastal New England wedding to knock your socks off!  Melissa and Cecil were married on a perfect Saturday in August on the steps of the Manchester By The Sea Town Hall.  Afterward, they all took boats across the harbor to Manchester Yacht Club and had a killer cocktail and dance party.  Their party was super casual, fun, and classy and it totally reflected Melissa and Cecil perfectly.  Everyone was relaxed and tan and happy and gorgeous and tipsy… it was such a perfect night.  Melissa was so stunning it kindof hurt to look at her.  And her family surprised her with this gorgeous antique car to get her to her ceremony.  Their wedding was full of this kind of love all day.

A couple of shout outs from their day:

Melissa and her crew had their make up done by one of the coolest chicks I’ve met in a while.  I’m sortof mad that she’s funnier than I am AND really talented and gorgeous.  Hire her and follow her blog here: www.jeannievincent.com You’ll love her, she’ll make you look gorgeous and make you laugh, too.   And Melissa and her friends got ready at Vine and Ivy Bed and Breakfast in Beverly Farms. Amazing place.  Check it.

Here are some of our favorites from their day. Enjoy. Thank you.  Love.

Jayme and Kamil: mallied.

Jamie and Kamil got married on yet another amazingly gorgeous and perfect Saturday in July.  Jayme, Kamil and their friends and family are so insanely awesome, we had such a blast.  They’re the kind of crew that laughs and dances and parties…all the time.  Just good people having a ton of fun.  We loved every second of this day.

Their reception was at The Taj, Boston so it wasn’t difficult to find plenty of gorgeousness to photograph.  Not to mention, Jayme really liked stroking Kamil’s chin on command so that was nice.;)

Love you, cats.  Thank you for everything.

Enjoy. Love.

Erin. Dale. Bermuda. Hitched’s first destination wedding!

Hitched Studios goes abroad!!  HOOTY HOO!!!!!!  Best time EVER!!!! EVER EVER EVER EVER EVERRRR!!!!  Highlight of our season!? psssssshhhh, highlight of our careers!!

Erin is a really good friend of mine from college out in Seattle.  I almost jumped through the phone when she asked us to photograph her and Dale’s wedding in Bermuda.   We had the whole weekend off (super rare) and the gig was booked.

Little did we know that we were going to fall in love with Dale, Erin’s entire family, Dale’s entire family, and all of their friends.   We stayed with Erin’s good friend, Zoe, who was…letmesee…the most gracious, hospitable host on planet Earth.  Ben and I tagged along on their whole wedding weekend.  Here are LOTS of photographs of the weekend.   It starts with a sight seeing tour on a bus, then into a sunset cruise, and then into their wedding day.  Their wedding was held at Heron’s Nest, a pink, antique, private mansion on 11 acres on a Bermudian bay.  It was  a true family affair with their entire families chipping in to make the day perfect.

Erin, you have been and will always be a total inspiration to me.  You are gorgeous, brilliant, kind, light, fun, hilarious, fair, loyal,driven, talented, successful,  and loving.  I love you more every time I see you.  To be there for someone so special on her wedding day was not only a highlight of my career, but a personal highlight of my life.  I will be your friend until the very end and beyond.  My life is so rich because you’re here in it and I’ll never be able to let you know what an honor it was to watch you glow on that day.  There are no words for your beauty and grace and Dale is the luckiest man alive.  I love you.

Enjoy!  Love! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Molly and Jim are engaged. That’s cool, huh?

Molly and Jim are so funny and fun and rad and in love and good looking.  Needless to say it was a blast to photograph them in Salem on a gorgeous Friday night.  We started downtown and then headed to a park that overlooked the absolutely gorgeous coastline of Salem.  All in all it was just a great day full of lots of a goofy love fest.

Here are some of our favorites.

Enjoy!
