Kate + Erick – Carriage Stone Farm, Northford, CT Engagement Session Photos
May 1st, 2009A little while back a friend of mine, the super talented Robin DIni, told me that she was pregnant! Along with this exciting news came the concern that she may not be able to photograph Kate + Erick’s wedding in the fall. Robin asked me to step in for her (and the couple agreed), and I gladly obliged. I know Robin was bummed that her due date fell so close to their big day, and after meeting the couple I know why! These two are incredibly sweet, laid back, and SO in love. I am really excited for their wedding and honored I get to be a part of it – along with the amazing Julia of Salty Grapes Photography. We are going to have a blast!
This past weekend Robin, Julia and I met up with Kate and Erick at Carriage Stone Farm in Northford, CT. What a cool find by Robin!
Robin’s father drove this tractor over for our use ; )
Aren’t they too cute?
I love spring (even though it was more like summer with the 90 degree weather!)
Kate is so beautiful!
The sky was so blue.
I love this silhouette.
We had been told that one of the horses is a biter, although we weren’t sure which one. Therefore, Kate and Erick were slightly nervous about standing near this horse, but they did it anyway, and look pretty relaxed I think!
; )
We think this may be the horse that bites!
These stone blocks were calling to us.
This one makes me happy.
Relaxing in the warm sun.
I was really loving the texture and pattern of these blocks. And Kate and Erick are not so bad themselves ; )
Love it!
My favorite of the day – I love the reflection of the clouds in the window.
They are one awesome couple!
Thank you Robin for asking me to be a part of this and thank you Kate and Erick!! I had so much fun with you guys, and I am really excited to photograph your wedding along with Julia!!

Vicki, I really love the colors in these, they are so vibrant. It was also a really cool location to do a shoot, really nice job. I love the green grass, the horses and the textures of the big concrete blocks.
