Meredith and Matt - Married!

Last Friday Meredith and Matt got married! They both had such sweet families and the energy was contagious. As many of you know, the day before the wedding Juliet and I were in a bad car accident, and had spent most of the night in a neck brace at the Hartford Hospital ER. I am so grateful to all of our photographer friends that had volunteered to help out with the wedding. We especially appreciate Jerome Braga for his help in getting the word out that we might need extra help. (To all you brides out there, when you are shopping around for a photographer, it is very important to ask them what they would do in an emergency, and if they would have backup. I am very happy to tell everyone that I had about 15 photographer ready and willing to take over for me within a couple of hours for a wedding that was less than 12 hours away! How awesome is that!?!? CT photographers ROCK!) We did end up having Nikki Nicole help out during the early part of the wedding, shooting Matt and his groomsmen getting ready. She did an awesome job! So with Josh by my side, (and a couple bottles of pain pills in my pocket :) ) we set out to capture Meredith and Matt's beautiful wedding. They had perfect weather, and a beautiful location. What more could we ask for? The ceremony was in North Haven, we went to Elizabeth Park for portraits, and the Reception was at the Bond Ballroom. Enjoy this preview:































Thanks to Val for her inspiration for this shot:





























We snuck outside for a few quick night time portraits:
