What a beautiful day for Bruce & Heather’s summer engagement session at Elizabeth Park in West Hartford! I’ve known Heather for quite some time so when she asked me to photograph her wedding and engagement I was beyond thrilled. It was great to finally meet Bruce and get to know him as we walked around…
Andre & Michele had such a beautiful summer wedding at Lake of Isles overlooking the water! We started off the day at the Fox Tower of Foxwoods where Michele and Andre both got ready. The rooms there have a good amount of space even when there are a few people getting ready. This is great…
Bobby & Emily had such a beautiful Saint Clements Castle wedding! These two are some awesome people and so are their friends. They are both musicians from New York and many of their friends are as well, which is why it was no surprise that there were some great musical performances at their wedding. Bobby…
What a beautiful day we had for Mike & Emily’s Saybrook Point Inn wedding! I started out the day just in time to catch Emily finishing up getting ready and putting on her dress. This was great since we got to have a first look with her dad as well as have her parents read…

Such a beautiful afternoon for Matt & Katie’s Southport engagement session! We were originally going to have there session a week earlier but the storms rolled in and took down a tree at their house.
