My assistant Kim Tyler and I were honored to spend August 16 with Courtney and Greg Driesch as they recited their vows. It was a beautiful day that was cloudy when it needed to be and sunny when we needed light in the gorgeous church in West Hartford. The couple left the ceremony in a classic Mini-Cooper that Greg and his dad restored. Greg, as you can see, is very tall and it was great to see him climb in and out. The reception was held in the mansion at Harkness State Park in Waterford. A full moon rose over Long Island sound just after sunset making it a perfect evening. Congrats to you both!
Even though I was a guest at the wedding of my dear friends Holly and Ross, I couldn't resist taking some photos. They got married June 27, 2008 at Easton's Beach in Newport, RI.
We set up a photo booth for all the guests. This is such a fun thing to have at a wedding. I had it at my wedding after my brilliant father-in-law constructed an awesome foot pedal devise that hooks up to a spare camera. Guests can take their own wacky or sweet photos which insures that the bride and groom gets a great shot of everyone who is part of their day. Here is a shot of the set up, and the photo that resulted from it. Plus some hi-lights I love!
Sorry for the long hiatus! This has been a whirlwind summer. I'm finally on the verge of catching up, so I thought I would get some blog updates done before heading off again next weekend for Courtney and Greg's wedding in Connecticut. Here are a few shots from their engagement session that we did when I was in Connecticut at the beginning of July. We had so much fun that afternoon at Rocky Neck State Park. It was such a great venue for our shoot.
