Lauren + Mat – Fairfield, CT Engagement Session Photos

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

When Vicki and I set up engagement sessions with our couples, we sometimes get to pick some of our favorite locations to work with. The area surrounding and including Burr Homestead & Pennfield Beach in Fairfield is definitely one of our favorite spots – there are so many great things to work with. Whether you have the mansion itself, or the beautiful gardens in the back, or the beach with its gorgeous views of the lighthouse, fun swing sets or really cool life guard stands, there really is something for everyone :) . Luckily for us, Lauren + Mat were down for a little bit of everything! They brought with them a willingness to be totally adorable in front of the camera and also a couple of things that are special to them, something we always encourage our couples to do. So what did they bring? For starters, a bocce set (something they like to do for fun, they are on a bocce team), and their adorable German Shepherd, Luna! Vicki and I left the session higher than a kite from all of the fun we had, and all of the incredible moments we had the privilege of capturing. It was an awesome day all around, and the perfect way to spend an afternoon with two really cool people :) .

Jennifer + Neal – Wadsworth Mansion, Middletown, CT Wedding Photos

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

Jen + Neal’s wedding at the Wadsworth Mansion was classically elegant, and when we look at the blog post of just some of our favorite images of the day, we have a sense that their wedding could have happened in any time period, and will certainly be just as incredible looking 100 years from now when their images get passed down from generation to generation. Jen is an accomplished photographer herself, and together, she and Neal had an amazing vision for how the day would be. It certainly got our creative juices flowing to be around other creative people, and there certainly wasn’t anything less than a ton of wonderful and amazing things to photograph…and we love Jen & Neal and their extremely sweet and loving families as well :) . It was just an all around magical day, and we were truly blessed to be on hand to document it all!

Ceremony + Reception: Wadsworth Mansion, Middletown, CT
Catering: Emily’s Catering
Flowers: Innovative Flowers
Cake: Creative Cakes by Donna

Jen & Neal, you two know how to throw an amazing party and host an off the hook wedding! The food was exquisite, the ceremony (which was officially the shortest and sweetest ceremony ever) was touching and emotional, and the interaction between you and your family made for some truly memorable moments. And you both looked absolutely incredible! Thank you for everything, and we can’t wait to grab lunch and talk about making pictures :D .

Holly + Matt – Dobbs Ferry, NY Engagement Session Photos

Sunday, October 24th, 2010

Vicki and I met Holly + Matt down at Dobbs Ferry in NY, and we couldn’t wait to start photographing these two! But, before we could snap any pictures, they presented us with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. How thoughtful and sweet is that? Vicki and I proceeded to have a fantastic time hanging out with Holly and Matt, getting to know them better, and being in awe of just how rad they looked in front of our lenses. All we can think about is how much fun we are going to have hanging out with them, and taking pictures at their wedding. We. Can’t. Wait!
