Beth & Mike are Married!!

Yesterday my second shooter Vicki & I photographed Beth & Mike's Wedding. They got married at West Avon Congregational Church with their reception at The Bond Ballroom in Hartford. After the ceremony we made a quick stop at Elizabeth Park for some photographs of Beth and Mike in the gardens. It was such a beautiful day. Here are some of my photos from the day, be sure to also check out Vicki's Blog for some of her shots!!

I love taking photos of dresses before the bride puts it on. In this case we actually got to take some photos of the dress outside the church since the church is where Beth got ready.


Such a beautifully simple church.


I loved the light coming through the window of the church before the ceremony.




This shot is one of my favorites, it is of Beth's mother and maid of honor pulling the dress over her head. I like how it seems like an endless sea of white.




The first kiss!!


The wedding party right after the ceremony, I really liked the bridesmaids' dresses, they were so different.




I really love this bridal portrait of Beth back in the church. The simplicity of it all was something that really called out to me.


Elizabeth Park is really gorgeous, what more can I really say.


I LOVE sun flare!!






Beth & Mike's first dance in the beautiful Bond Ballroom.


This was something fun and artistic I did. During the first dance, I took a quick close-up / movement shot of Beth's dress. I like the texture and colors that came out.


The Bond Ballroom is in such a beautiful old building, we saw this hallway and mirror immediately and just had to take a quick bridal shot of Beth on the bench.


Here I am with the happy couple, thank you Vicki for capturing this!

Thank you Beth & Mike for such an amazing day, congratulations again!! I hope you have a great time on your honeymoon in Greece & Egypt. Can't wait to see some of the photos you capture there!!
