It is hard not to love Joanne and Joe – they are both just really good people, and it was evident that many others feel the same by the amount of friends and family (and bridal party, 9 on each side!) on hand to witness these two be joined in marriage on a beautiful spring afternoon. Even Father Bob got choked up delivering the ceremony. What an incredible day it was, from the poker game with the guys, to the stirring ceremony, pictures at the vineyard and the amazingly choreographed first dance, ending with sparklers for everyone in the courtyard. It was a true celebration of love, life, and the memories of those important people that were not able to be there in body, but who most definitely were there in spirit. Looking at these pictures give us such a great feeling of gratitude that we could be there to document such a special day

What an afternoon we had with Karem and Tamir – Weir Farm is such a gorgeous location, reminding us of a farm in France, and these two showed up and immediately gave us the “Stuff” (and by the “Stuff”, we mean they were bringing the magic). Karem and Tamir couldn’t be any cuter together, and were even up for climbing at tree, which blew us away (Karem in high heels no less!). Seriously, these two rocked it An awesome (we told you we love that word right?) engagement session spent at a beautiful location with two adorable people that make you fall in love all over again. What’s better than that?

Karem and Tamir, we hope you had as much fun as we think you probably had in France on your honeymoon, and we are really excited to post your fabulous wedding photos (just two more after this!). We can’t wait to be there for the next milestone in your lives, but no pressure

xoxo,

When we arrived at Pomperaug High School in Southbury, one of the things that struck Erik was how much it reminded him of the high school he went to in California, and the memories of running cross country. Stephanie and John have many fond memories of high school as well, since it was where they met for the first time (they say they didn’t feel a strong connection at the time, but we find that hard to believe as they are so playful and joyful together!), and and eventually fell in love We all had a great time together, laughing and relating, and most importantly we had the distinct pleasure of photographing these two being so adorable together. Seriously, how fun is it having the two of them stealing a kiss under the bleachers?

Steph and John, thank you for inviting us to capture the two of you at such a special place, and for reminding us that life is better when you are having fun with it By the way, we are totally split on the Lost season finale, and are so sad that it is all over!

xoxo,
Vicki + Erik
