We were so excited to head to my hometown of Westport CT to photograph Sam and Jon's intimate nuptials along the river that runs through town at the Saugatuck Rowing Club. It was sweet, peaceful, beautiful and full of all.the.happiness. Sam was literally beaming and Jon was over the moon! Sam's non traditional BHLDN wedding dress for their New England nuptials was even more incredible in person and I was ob-sessed!

I have to say that my face hurt from smiling so much just being with them and documenting this precious day in their love story! Chris and I were so so honored to be a part of their local wedding here in CT and know that they can't wait to celebrate with family and friends at their big bash next August in Chicago!

Literally a million favorites from their day, but here are some of them!

Lou and Krisiti both had something engraved in their wedding bands, but neither knew what the other had written in the other's band. After the ceremony they had a quiet moment to look at the inside of their rings. Wouldn't you know these two soul mates had engraved something very similar! It was a sweet moment indeed!

What an honor it was to document one of the kindest couples you will meet wed, and I know these two can't wait to continue to celebrate with family and friends in the Dominican Republic next year! Congrats again you guys - we are so happy for you!

About all the things they are looking forward to. But as they talked, it was the undeniable happiness on their faces that was so so sweet to see. These two are getting married next summer along the Sound here in Connecticut and I can only imagine how incredible and beautiful it will be. We can't wait to document it! :)

Here are some of my favorites from their Fairfield beach engagement session!

Their anniversary Rock the Dress session on the coast was surely one I won't forget anytime soon! SO much fun spending time with these two and hearing them reminisce about their wedding day. Here are a few of my favorites from their session!

Courtney wore this 100+ year old veil that has been in her family forever that she wore on her wedding day. It was one of the most beautiful veils I have ever seen - so delicate with stunning detailing!

Their loved ones flew in from around the world to the gorgeous Saltwater Farm vineyard to be witness to them becoming husband and wife and raise their champagne glasses to the newlyweds. There was dancing under twinkling lights, toasts of heartfelt words and memories made. Oh, and s'mores enjoyed at the end of the night! What's better then that?!

Alexis & Ian - Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to share in the joy of your wedding! We had so much fun and felt so lucky to be a small part of it! Congrats again you two!

Here are some of my favorites from their gorgeous vineyard wedding!

The bride wore jewelry that were family heirlooms and hold special meaning to her and her family. Love this so much!

This moment was a gem. When Alexis went to put on her "something blue" shoes, she was surprised to find a love note Ian had written on the bottom of them.

B-E-A-U-T-Y.

One of my favorites! You are gorgeous Alexis!

Love this one!

Gah! Another favorite!

The story of Ashley and Patrick's wedding day was written with moments that bring tears to your eyes (literally) and leave a mark on your heart. The pages of their celebration were full of memories equally if not more breathtaking then the next. Two of my favorite moments have to be when Ashley saw her father for the first time and when Ashley & Patrick had their First Look before becoming husband and wife!

Everything about this wedding celebration was so beautiful, from the carefully picked out and planned details, to the words spoken and the love felt. It was one we will never forget!

The views and sunset at Le Chateau in New York did not disappoint and provided the perfect backdrop for them tying the knot. There were sweet vows spoken, champagne poured and glasses clinked and a first dance that was right up there with the one from the movie Dirty Dancing. From beginning to end, their wedding celebration was spectacular to be a small part of and photograph!

We have seen them and kept in touch over the years and you can only imagine my excitement when they wanted to do an anniversary session in NYC during their trip there recently. That love, excitement and sweet happiness that was there when they were newlyweds in Paris was beautiful to see and photograph all these years later in a different city in the world!

Their anniversary session left our hearts so full and grateful for how our photography business has brought the most incredible people into our lives like these two. Happy Anniversary Sabrina & Ben and we can't wait to see you again soon! SO hard to pick my favorites from their session, but here are some of them!
