Kara + Matt – Round Hill House, Washingtonville, NY Wedding Photos

September 17th, 2011

Sometimes, when Vicki and I are meeting with couples about photography for their wedding, the question arises – “have you shot at our venue before?”. Chances are very good that we have – however there are so many amazing locations in New England that it wouldn’t be possible to have photographed them all. We don’t ever think that going into a location fresh is a hindrance – all we need to do is poke around a little bit before we start the day with the bride and groom (and you wouldn’t believe how many times we have heard employees of a venue, appearing with hors d’oeuvre and cocktails for the bride and groom say “we’ve never seen anyone shoot back here!”), since it really needs to be about the couple and their day. With that being said, we have never photographed a wedding at the Round Hill House in Washingtonville, NY, but we sure would love to go back! It had pretty much everything we could ask for from a photographers perspective – a beautiful New England mansion with plenty of character, gardens bursting at the seams with summer flowers, and a huge (off the beaten path) sunlit field for portraits. But we are getting ahead of ourselves of course, because a wedding is nothing without people, and Kara & Matt are two of the sweetest, most beautiful and caring people we have had the pleasure of photographing. Not only are they animal lovers, we also adored their style (Kara’s Demetrios wedding gown was a knockout), that included the whimsical vintage coffee and food tins for their centerpieces, as well as their flowers by Lucille’s Floral Design (which looked like they were plucked from the gorgeous gardens surrounding the mansion), and the super cute cake toppers (kitties included!). It was an amazing day, spent with great people.

Kara & Matt, thank you both for everything! We couldn’t have asked for better, and the two of you looked simply stunning.
