I’m pretty sure we just posted how much we love the Eolia Mansion, and the park that surrounds it, for so many reasons. Vicki and I had the opportunity to head back up there for another really cool session, the vow renewal of Christine & Ray! Not only was it absolutely glorious in terms of the light there, but the garden where they exchanged vows for their 5 year wedding anniversary was still in full bloom, and it created the perfect backdrop for the ceremony. The rest of the time we spent with them was just as amazing, as we had the opportunity for a little “urban decay”, as well as time around the mansion itself. We think they look pretty amazing themselves, and we had a great time getting to know them better, and photograph a sacred ceremony that we truly feel special to have documented . Without further adieu, on to the pictures!

Christine & Ray, thank you for having us photograph so many great moments, and we hope the next milestone you celebrate brings as much joy and happiness as this one did .

xoxo,
Vicki + Erik

Vicki and I are primarily wedding photographers, but we love branching out to take pictures of other really cool events in peoples lives. Jenn contacted us to take some pictures of her extended family at her parent’s house in Trumbull, and we were super excited to see the three generations all together. We had too much fun taking their pictures, and absolutely fell in love with all of the little ones. We also found out that Jenn got married at the same location as Jenny + PJ’s rocking wedding (coming soon!) in Sharon, MA, just last year. Really, what’s not to love when you have such a good looking family excited about getting their pictures taken?

Jenn, thank you for inviting us to take pictures of your really cool family! We had such a great time and hope to see you again!

Another day, another fabulous wedding! Vicki and I were in and around Hartford for Andrea & Liam’s wedding, and it was yet another perfect fall day for some seriously sweet photographs. Not only were we enamored with Andrea and Liam, we absolutely fell in love with her wedding gown (totally elegant, with a little bit of sass, not unlike Andrea herself), the pocket watch she gave to her handsome groom Liam (pocket watches may be one of our absolute favorite things about this year), and the locations throughout the day. We simply loved the church where the ceremony was held (Farmington is one of our favorite towns in CT), the location of their formals with all of it’s old brick and slate roofs, and of course the Town & Country Club, which had so many cool nooks and crannies all of which were done up splendidly with candles and flowers by De Vars Phillips. There wasn’t anything not to love about the day, and Andrea & Liam totally glowed through all of it .

Ceremony: St. Patrick’s Church, Farmington, CT
Reception: Town & Country Club, Hartford, CT
Flowers: De Vars Phillips
Cake: Classic Cakes, W. hartford, CT
Band: Cadence

Andrea & Liam, congratulations to you both! We loved all of the thought and care you put into your day. It certainly was a tremendous opportunity to showcase the two of you through our photographs . Be sure to tell us all about your honeymoon / road trip (I think Vicki and I are overdue for one, and yours sounds awesome!), and we know this is just the start to an amazing journey together!
