Tracey & Mike The Cascade, Hamden, CT

Meet Tracey and Mike! This was one of those weddings where you wish you were a guest so you could just let it all hang out. Talk about a good time, to say the least it was a blast. I first met Tracey at a bridal show in 2008 and since then, she has been nothing less than a sweetheart. Of course the minute I saw her on the big day she got on my case about the maple syrup I made and forgot to bring her. No worries Tracey, I promise next year;) Mike was cool as the other side of the pillow, not to mention a Fireman from New Haven.

I wish you guys all the best and look forward to seeing you guys again soon! Congratulations!

Another special thank you to Missy Vandermause and Caitlyn Bouchard for shooting this one with me.






I was so excited when I saw this shot! Loved it!
The beautiful Tracey!



Mike's first look at his soon to be wife.



These two were too cute to pass up.



I showed Mike this image on the back of my camera and he said "it looks like a Hallmark card" I was hoping for Martha Stewart Weddings;)


Seriously?
This party was definitely rockin!

Carolyn & Drew Hartford, CT (The Bond)

Okay, so now I'm back on track from a whirlwind of weddings the last eight days that brought us to Hartford, New Haven twice then Stafford Springs only to end up in Southington. Thank God gas isn't $4 a gallon!

Enter Carolyn and Drew, the first of four. These two were awesome, Carolyn was beautiful and elegant and Drew, a true gentlemen. They chose City Hall for their pictures so having never been, I was super excited. I have always heard how beautiful it is and it didn't disappoint. It's almost sensory overload when you first step inside. Very over whelming to say the least.

Once we conquered City Hall, we headed over to one of my favorite reception sites, The Bond. The Bond fit Carolyn and Drew to a T and I think we did a great job of Capturing their beautiful day.

A special thanks to Missy Vandermause and Caitlyn Bouchard for shooting this one with me. You guys are awesome, seriously!


Some intense getting ready shots from the salon.

We made a quick stop by the hotel where the guys were hanging to grab a few shots. Here is one of Drew.
What an amazing dress, that's all I can say.
The Bride and her sister.
The bride and mom, now you know where the beauty comes from :)


St. Peter church in West Hartford was all about eye candy.
I love the intensity of this image.
You know I have to roll around the floor at least a couple times to get dirty. Anything for the shot.

On to City Hall!
Classic was the theme here. You couldn't help it.


This session turned out very romantic. I love this image.

On to the bond.

The best man had everyone cracking up, including me.
Get ready for some first dance love!





They ended the night with none other than "sweet Carolyn" Bah Bah Bah
Thank you again guys for letting us be a part of your beautiful wedding.
