After falling in love with a photographer’s style and contacting them, it is first important to know if they are available for your wedding date.

This is also a great time to ask them if they will have an assistant with them on the day of your wedding.

They will also have plenty of batteries fully charged and SD cards.

Five Bridge Inn Rehoboth, MA Wedding | Jason & Nicole Say I Do

Fall Wedding Photography in Southern Massachusetts

Jason and Nicole’s October wedding day at Five Bridge Inn in Rehoboth, Massachusetts was the most beautiful New England Fall day to say “I do”. The air was cool and the leaves had changed color on the trees adding the perfect pop of Fall color to their intimate wedding day.

This Bride and Groom had their beloved dog, Leeloo join in on their big day.

We started the day off with a first look with Nicole and her bridesmaids. Such a lovely sentiment to have some of the most important women in your life in such a special moment on your wedding day.

Jason and Nicole’s First Look outside of the Inn that so emotional. Jason couldn’t even speak after he saw his Bride for the first time in her wedding dress. They both agreed that having a first look together allowed them to get some of the wedding day nerves out of the way before their ceremony.

The rest of their wedding day flowed beautifully with their emotional ceremony, followed by visiting with the Llamas on the property and a crazy fun reception with a special appearances from a t-Rex dinosaur.

Nicole had sewn in a patch from one of her Father’s work shirts into the underside of her wedding dress. It was such a lovely way to have her Father with her on her wedding day, as well as adding to the tradition of having something blue while you walk down the isle.

Connecticut wedding photographer travels to Southern MA and all of New England to capture your wedding day in a candid and natural photography style.

Middlesex County Connecticut Engagement Photographer

Sunset photo session in a field

I met Robin and Sarah at their engagement session in the Fall of 2019. Robin and Sarah were due to be married in the Fall of 2020 at The Barns at Wesleyan Hills in Middletown, Connecticut. Due to Covid-19 they have decided to move their wedding to 2021, so we decided to get together again in the Summer of 2020 for another photography session with their sweet little fur baby.
I knew the perfect location in Middlefield, CT with a big open field and man it did not disappoint.

Intimate Wedding Photography in Connecticut | CT Wedding Photographer

Small intimate weddings tug at my heart strings. A familiar landscape filled with those dearest to your heart.

Abby and Jim's backyard wedding in Clinton, CT totally blew me away! Somehow between all of the planning that comes with your big day, Abby found time to incorporate her passion into her wedding day. All of the wooden structures you see, from her stunning backdrop she said her vows in front of, to the table decorated with apples and cider...Abby MADE. Like, by hand!! Is awesome is that?! All of the Autumn details of pumpkins and apples were perfect accents to craftsmanship.

Abby and Jim met at work and have been together for 7 years. They are total adventure junkies. Their most memorable date together was their first camping trip in
below freezing temps.

Their Wedding Day started with a First Look near the edge of the water. Abby's wedding dress was the perfect mix of elegant and simplify that goes so well with an intimate wedding.
Family and friends gathered on the lawn awaiting the Bride escorted by her father. Abby's mother was the justice of the peace and it was the perfect touch to their family filled Wedding Day.

The evening was filled with dancing, jumo Janga (yes, Abby made that as well!) paper lanterns and lots of love.

I am wishing Abby and Jim many, many more years filled with amazing adventures!

Neutral Summer Wedding at The Litchfield Inn | Becky & John

Becky and John’s neutral summer wedding at the Litchfiled Inn, in Litchfield Connecticut.

Becky and John had the most wonderful weather for their wedding day at the Litchfield Inn. Bright and Sunny, warm but not humid. Their ceremony and reception took place at the beautiful Litchfield Inn in Connecitcut. Becky and John’s day began with Becky getting ready with close friends and family at the Inn's gorgeous Bridal Suite, can we talk about that red accent wall? Stunning! John and his groomsmen got ready in rustic Cabin Room.

We then headed to Topsmead State Park for Becky and John's first look, which was emotional to say the least. Followed by formals with parents and wedding party.

Just weeks before their wedding, Becky and John took in foster pups from a local rescue. We were able to get all of the pups into their wedding day and it added so much fun, and for a good cause, to help find these puppies their forever homes. I am thrilled to say all of the puppies have been adopted.

Becky and John's Wedding Day was perfection. From the smallest details to the great big emotion filled moments.

Below is just a small glimpse into their wonderful Wedding Day:
