Maria + Tom – Cranbury Park, Norwalk, CT Wedding Photos

May 22nd, 2010

“What’s the most dramatic thing that has ever happened at a wedding you have shot?” was the question that Tom asked Erik while they were driving together on the way from The Inn at Norwalk toward Cranbury Park for Maria & Tom’s wedding. “Nothing too crazy or noteworthy” Erik replied. Little did they both know that the day had more in store for everyone than just a beautiful celebration shared with very special friends and family. Maria and Tom make us laugh and cry when we are around them. I think we were in a constant flux from laughter to tears throughout the entire day of their wedding, and it was such a wonderful feeling :) You can’t help but be enamored by these two, and the energy that each of them bring wherever they go is exponential when they are together. Oh, and they also just happen to look incredible when you photograph them, and make us love photography even more while doing it. For those that don’t know, Tom and Maria had the top third of a giant cedar tree snap off in the high winds at Cranbury Park during their ceremony and fall on half of the guests there. Thankfully, no one was seriously injured. And even more amazing was that these two were able to still be so balanced between the joy of the celebration and the care that they showed for not only those hurt by the event, but for their friends and family there for them.

Ceremony & Reception: Cranbury Park, Norwalk, CT
Event Planner: Lindsey Maurath Fresh LiME Events
Catering / Tent: Fishtales Seafood Company
DJ: Justine Davis, NightStar DJ & Karaoke

Maria and Tom, we love you both very much, and will always remember your wedding day for all of the best reasons – just how awesome the two of you are, and what an absolute joy it is to be with you on one of the most magnificent days of your lives :)

p.s. Tom, I think I cried more than you :)

Marcia + Aaron – Harkness Park, Waterford, CT Engagement Session Photos

May 12th, 2010

Harkness Park is really one of our favorite locations to photograph, and we were excited to meet Marcia and Aaron there for their e-session. There are so many beautiful spots there, from the beach to Eolia Mansion. We had a lot of fun talking and discovering new, magical places to photograph them being so adorable :) Marcia and Aaron are such a perfect fit, and we loved hearing about how they met for the first time, as well as how they reconnected later and proceeded to fall madly in love. We seriously could have spent all day with these two, but they did have a long drive home, and we try not to hold our couples hostage for tooo long…

Marcia and Aaron, thanks again for choosing us to be your photographers, and for being so warm and full of all the great qualities that make getting to know you both so much fun. I knew we would have perfect weather and amazing light when we finally got together!! Thank you Aaron for all the great tips on posture and stretching, our backs haven’t felt this good in a long time!

xoxo,
Vicki and Erik

Karen + Jason – Hubbard Park, Meriden, CT Engagement Session Photos

May 10th, 2010

As many of you know, Erik and I love animals – and when Karen and Jason told us that they would be bringing their two Great Danes, we were thrilled not only to get the chance to hang out and photograph the two of them, but to meet their large companions ;) We had so much fun with these two – and their dogs Bailey and Bianca (or just “B’ as she is affectionately called), did such a great job posing for us as well. It was a perfect afternoon spent in Hubbard Park, and it left us with great memories and a strong desire to have a Great Dane (or two) of our own! A gorgeous couple and two magnificent animals, what more could we ask for?

Karen and Jason, thank you again for being so great to spend the afternoon with, and is there any chance you are going to have the “kids” at the wedding? We can’t wait to see you guys again, and look forward to the big day!
