Kellie is a swing dancer so when we were thinking of ideas for their engagement session I said we should really do a swing dance! She wasn’t sure because Rob is newer to swing dancing but never the less Rob pulled through like a champ. He’s even added some jazz hands into his dancing routine! We went around downtown New Haven for the swing dance and then over to Edgerton Park for some more dancing just as the sun was setting. We can’t wait for their wedding that is less then a month away!

Kellie and Rob wanted to go to New York for their engagement session because in the short time that they have dated this is where they have spent a lot of time together. They met after being set up by friends in January and have been inseparable since! We had a blast during their engagement session. We took the train in from New Haven to Grand Central and from there went to central park. The weather that day was amazing for July! After a quick bite to eat at Josephina’s Restaurant we headed over to Village to Magnolia Bakery for some of the best cup cakes in the world! Kellie had told me that they agreed on no cake smashing at the wedding so I told her she had to do it now! As you can see in the photos she got Rob really good! She is now waiting for Robs sweet revenge.

Katie and Andy are avid rock climbers and love being out doors so we really wanted their personalities to come out in their engagement session. They really love the rustic look so we took advantage of down town New Haven and hung out for the day to capture these fun images. Their wedding is coming up this Friday at Wickham Park in Manchester, CT and we couldn’t be more excited for the big day!

Kim and Mike are married! Their intimate wedding took place on Wednesday July, 7 at St Clements Castle in Portland, CT. You might remember from their engagement session post that they were both in the army and deployed all over the world. Now that they are back in the states they decided to tie the knot in Kim’s home state of Connecticut. The day started off Crown Plaza in Cromwell, CT where the girls from Naomi’s Salon in West Hartford came to do the ladies hair and make-up. From there both the reception and ceremony took place at St Clements Castle. While it was a very hot day in July the nice breeze off the Connecticut river cooled everything down to make the ceremony perfect. We had the photo booth going during the reception and this family was a blast as you can tell by the pictures! The night ended with a sparkler farewell.

Kim and Mike- it was so awesome getting to know you and your story! We had a blast at the wedding and wish you all the best in your new home in North Carolina!

Meet Susan, Jo Ann and their daughter Izzy! Susan and Jo Ann are both scientists and actually met on the job. They have been together now for over 10 years so they decided to finally tie the knot this coming September at the Mystic Seaport. We are so excited for their up coming wedding! We did their engagement session with their beautiful daughter Izzy around the town of Stonington, CT.
