Kayla & Tim’s Connecticut Micro-Wedding

Wedding

Kayla and Tim decided they wanted to have an intimate micro-wedding the week before their bigger wedding, at their Southbury home. So, on September 15, I met them at their gorgeous house tucked away in the woods on the edge of town – where I spent an hour with this stunning couple documenting their backyard wedding with their immediate families and closest friends. They had flowers from the bride’s grandmother, got ready in their own room, and legally exchanged vows in their yard, right next to their garden…

Connecticut Pride Session at Platt Park | MJ + Angela

Portraits

It’s June … and for those of us celebrating – Happy Pride! I knew coming into this year that I wanted a session that was incredibly romantic, soft neutral tones, and gorgeous landscape. I put out a model call in a local LGBTQIA+ social media group asking for a couple who might want to participate in my session – and I met MJ and Angela through that group…

NYC Elopement: Editorial Inspiration

Elopement

As soon as we decided to relocated to the east coast, and I knew we would be living near New York City, I decided two things. 1) I would need to visit because NYC has so many incredible places I’d been hearing about my whole life (museums, art galleries, restaurants…) and 2) I would need to photograph weddings and elopements there. Obviously breaking into a well-saturated NYC market when you haven’t ever photographed in the city before isn’t the easiest thing ever – so I took matters into my own hands, and went to the city armed with these beautiful humans, Nicole from Good Vibes Beauty Co, wedding clothes from Julie Allen Bridals, and some stunning florals from The Dirt Empress, as well as a huge nod to one of my favorite stationary companies: Oblation Papers out of Oregon….

Newburg Oregon Vineyard Wedding | Elly + Jeremiah

Wedding

Elly and Jeremiah got married on an overcast day in early fall in Oregon. It’s always “iffy” with Oregon weather, but this day the rain held off and instead gave us stunning clouds over the vineyard….

An Elopement Week in Iceland

Elopement

I’ve always struggled with how to write about this particular elopement. These were more than just clients for me… the groom, James, was one of my dearest friends through some of the hardest years of my life. I met him in his early 20’s, watched him go through a struggle with becoming sober, he helped me through my divorce and then supported me as I got on my feet as a single mom…
