Brandy and Michael's Westport, Connecticut Wedding!

I can't believe Brandy and Michael's wedding is actually over!  I feel like it was just yesterday that I was sitting down with the two of them to discuss what they wanted out of their wedding photos (over gluten-free snacks, of course, because Brandy and I share the same sensitivity!).  It was in the fall that I took their engagement photos at Sunset Hills Vineyard, and now their summer DIY wedding in Connecticut is all over!  But the good news is...there are photos!  ;) When I met with Brandy she stressed to me that she absolutely loved the little details involved with weddings.  So when I arrived at their wedding site I knew I would see her amazing DIY details everywhere!  She made signs for almost everything, from the directional signs of where their wedding was, to the table assignments, to the little place cards on the tables.  The colors were so tasteful and natural, with lots of punchy greens accompanied by lovely muted creams and browns.  Brandy isn't a fan of colorful floral arrangements, so she went with potted herbs on the dining tables, with little sprigs of rosemary tucked in to everyones menus!  She even bypassed flowers to hold during the wedding and opted for gorgeous clutches for she and her bridesmaids.  Not to mention she purchased an amazing boutonniere for Michael made of burlap, feathers and twine!  Swoon!

Brandy and Michael are the epitome of amazing clients.  They were an absolute joy to work with and photograph, and I hope this isn't the last time I see them!  :)  Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day, and enjoy the photos!

P.S.  Have to give a huge shout out to Alison and her team at AMG Catering and Events who were an incredible to work with!  Thanks for making my job a lot easier!  :D

Thanks for looking!

Love,

Megan and Mike's Sunset Hills Vineyard Wedding - Part One!

I recently got to photograph Megan and Mike's wedding at the Sunset Hills Vineyard in Purcellville, VA! I was excited to shoot at a vineyard as the photographic opportunities are endless! It just screams rustic, which I absolutely love, and Megan and Mike's wedding fit perfectly into the mix! We were concerned about rain that was in the forecast that day, and even though it rumbled of thunder at one point during the ceremony, the storm broke up over the Shenandoah Mountains and just provided some nice cloud-cover instead! One thing I loved about shooting this wedding is Megan had some of the most animated faces. She just cannot contain her excitement about anything, which you will see below! Many, many thanks to Megan and Mike, and their family and friends who made this day such a fun one for me. Enjoy the photos below! And stay tuned for Part II of the wedding, highlighting the reception details and festivities!
