This summer has been a whirlwind of beautiful weddings and I’ve had such a great time being there to capture it all.  I’ve met so many wonderful families and been there to witness truly intimate and special moments.  I can’t wait to share some of them with you.  I first met Lauren and Brian in Boston for their fall engagement session.  We had a great time strolling around the city and did a TON of walking.  Only at the end of the evening did Brian mention that he’d run a marathon...

Just a few days after the birth of my 2nd son, Cole, I packed up my gear and headed out in the morning, so excited for Taylor and Darren’s wedding at the Lord Thompson Manor in Thompson, CT.  As is often the case in mid-September, the weather was perfect and I was very eager to explore the property and capture this beautiful day.  Taylor was glowing from the outset and her friends and family were so sweet and supportive.  I started out with the girls at the Inn and Salon...

Romance never goes out of style. As people’s tastes change, and fad’s come and go, at the end of the day we remember the feelings we had during the milestone events in our lives, as well as the little things we do for one another so that they know just how important they are to us. From the moment we first met with Jessica’s mom who filled us in on the whole back-story of her daughter and Nils, we knew that they are hopeless romantics. This was confirmed by their beautiful...

When they were both undergrads together at Duke University, Melissa had thought she knew Russell. He was a frat guy, she thought, not serious. Then, two months before she graduated, Russell offered to walk her home from the bar where they had both happened to be. On that walk home, they talked. They talked about a number of things but when Russell told Melissa about his favorite violin concerto, he spoke about it so eloquently that Melissa felt as though she was finally seeing Russell for the very first time....

The classic, ideal Western wedding is sort of a palindrome: you start the day slowly building to the heights of finery, hoping to look better than you ever have in your life, culminating in the stunning formality of a wedding ceremony … and then you let it all go in wild revelry, a mash of joy and sweat and hairpins. It’s how we squeeze every last bit of happiness and camaraderie out of a single day, and Jackie and Corey’s wedding was an incredible expression of the form. Beauty? Well,...

5.28.2011 – Ashley and Scott These two are adorable and we had just seen them the month before for their engagement session in NYC so shooting with them was still fresh and we all had a blast!  As a wordie, can I call myself that, like a foodie but with words, one of my favorite parts of their marriage is that Ashely only had to change one letter in her name to have his last name!  So fun! They are also super easy to photograph, totally in love, adorable together…that makes our...

You might remember Katie and Ben from the wintery engagement session we posted–we were beyond excited for their July wedding because it was happening with one of our favorite families at one of our favorite places!  I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lord Thompson Manor in Thompson, CT.  It is the perfect country estate for a whole weekend event where friends and family can stay and be together for more than just the wedding reception.  The gorgeous Cottage House, right up the street from the Manor is perfect for getting...

This is one of my absolute favorite places to photograph–if you want glamor and elegance and an all in one place affair with an all hands on deck staff who make the event perfect than a Lord Thompson Manor Wedding is the place for you.  The getting ready space is all white on white on white…which, I’ll be honest, is a photographer’s dream, and sometimes I find myself daydreaming of decorating my own house with all white floors, furniture, walls, linens, decorations, etc…anything you put in the space after that...
