2nd Shooting at Hopkins

Every once in a while I have the opportunity to be 2nd shooter for another company's wedding. Helping out Eric Langlois of Raw Photo Design for Jacqueline and Mark's wedding at Hopkins Vineyard was such an occasion.

I was a camper and then a counselor for 14 summers at Mountain Lake Bible Camp, which is a mile up the road from Hopkins, so this was a familiar site. As Eric mentions on his blog (Check it out!), we had the luxury of more than an hour for their photo walk-- many of these pictures were taken on that walk, between the ceremony and reception. (This first picture is a couple of Mark's family heirlooms.)

Congratulations, Jacqueline and Mark! Best of luck!

Autumn Eng Session at Boothe Park

The leaves are turning and Boothe Park in Stratford couldn't look much better. Green makes for a fine background, but some orange and yellow is nice for a change! We happened upon a very interesting throne made of stone. And just after that, Rebekah and Tom danced on a circular patch of grass despite worries that they would be beamed up. It was certainly an adventure!

Marriott/ Elizabeth Park Wedding

I had the pleasure to photograph Danielle and Antonio's wedding at Courtyard Marriott in Cromwell. The couple chose Elizabeth Park in West Hartford for their formals-- great choice! It's been a while since I've been to Elizabeth Park, and I didn't realize how nice it was there this time of the year. Antonio is a photo enthusiast himself, so I enjoyed talking photography with him a couple of brief down times during the day. Danielle and Antonio's love for each other was very evident. Congratulations, Danielle and Antonio! Best of luck!
