Eolia Mansion at Harkness State Park Wedding Photos, Waterford CT
When I look back at these photos I remember that beautiful calm feeling of love and joy in the air. Katharine and John got married on a gorgeous June day on Connecticut coast at one of my favorite places - Eolia Mansion at Harkness State Park. Once you arrive, you instantly feel relaxed and open to the magic of this place with its views of Long Island sound and the lushness of the gardens. Of course, the true stars of the day were Katharine and John who so graciously welcomed their guests and pulled off the most laid back celebration. I am grateful to have been a witness to the love these two share but also the love they share with their families and friends.
“John never makes me guess if he loves me or not. He is the most loving man, whether through words or touch, he’s always reminding me” - Katharine
“She laughs easy and seeks joy in life wherever we are. It is such a gift to have that in my life. She is loyal and has my back in whatever situation I’m in, and I know that we will tackle whatever life throws at us together.” - John
Darien Community Association Wedding, Darien CT - Emily & Jared
Forget everything you know about weddings and look at Emily’s dress haha! Emily and Jared did it right and they had so many beautiful custom touches:) When I first arrived at The Darien Community Association I knew Emily and Jared made the perfect choice for their super laid back intimate celebration. This place has so many hidden rooms and secret gardens for friends and family to hang out at! Most importantly we did all of their pre-ceremony photos around the property so these two didn’t have to travel far. I think what I loved most about Emily and Jared’s wedding celebration is how personal everything felt!

Brenna and Henri's love story is one of these meant to be kind of stories. Brenna and Henri met each other in the neighborhood park back when there were kids on a Lower East Side....
