Meeting Hanna and Kathryn for our initial session on zoom was WAY more fun than meetings should be. We laughed so much and I felt an instant connection to them both.

Hana and Matt’s CT fall engagement session at Elizabeth Park in Hartford CT was a lot of fun! I expected nothing less based on our initial zoom meeting. In my notes I wrote ‘Pretty Silly People’ a direct quote from them, and they were right! One of my favorite parts of engagement sessions is really seeing how each persons personality comes through. Sometimes it can take a while, which is why I really advise clients to do an engagement session if they are not really comfortable in front of the camera. Sometimes it happens immediately, although it is rare. The important thing to note is that it ..read more

Karyn and Yury’s magnificent summer wedding at the Lord Thompson Manor was, well, MAGNIFICENT! Their wedding is also my first foray back into blogging my weddings after a brief hiatus from March of 2021 while I redid my entire website this Spring + Summer.

While I do agree that a picture is worth 1,000 words, I also think the stories you learn along the way shape how their photographic story is told. Karyn and Yury live in London and had family from all over the world fly in to celebrate ..read more
