Stephanie + Rick

Earlier in the day there were children running along the beach, chasing waves, laughing wildly. When their guests arrived it was the clinking of glasses and the hum of pleasantries. Once the band began to play, the horns and drums and guitar took over, throwing their music to the sky. But out here, tucked away and hidden, it was only this. Sometimes the silence makes the most beautiful sound of all.

Lauren + Jack // Next Day Preview

Normally I post one frame for the next day preview, but yeahhhhh, there's no way I could choose between all of this beauty... Lauren made the most timeless and stunning bride in her Sarah Seven dress from Everthine, and this private estate wedding in Woodstock, Connecticut was beyond a dream to capture.

 

BRIDES Magazine Feature

Being a wedding photographer is such a huge honor. Leaving behind images of love everlasting as part of my creative legacy is a dream come true. And when those beautiful love stories get shouted from the rooftops, for thousands of people to see, well, then, I pretty much almost pass out with gratitude.

There is so much not-so-beautiful news out there, and to have my images of real-life-love shared in the midst of all of that, well, it kind of makes me feel like I'm doing my part in my own little way.

Not only was this wedding featured full-color in the Summer print issue (I need to get my hands on one to photograph it! They don't sell BRIDES in the middle of the woods!), but it also has a 25-image spread on the landing page of BRIDES Magazine today.
