Rhiannon + Chris – Aquaturf Plantsville, CT Wedding

August 3rd, 2009

Erik and I have the best job. Ever. Rhiannon and Chris reminded us of that – that we get to be around amazing couples, in love, on one of the most special days of their lives. We had so much fun with these two at their engagement session that we knew it would be another memorable day. Erik and I were in awe of the power that two people truly in love with each other can have on those around them!
