Jaime + Scott: Wedding

Well, the wedding season has come to a close for Paul & I, and we are now have the time to catch up on some posts about this year's weddings. First up is our wonderful couple Jaime + Scott. Jaime is a branch manager of our bank, Webster Bank, and we met her years ago. She has always been a fan of ours (and we are fans of her as well!), and told us years ago when she gets married she wanted to have us fotograph her wedding. Well she did have us, and we were so honored to be part of her and Scott's day! Their wedding was a lot of fun, and we are so happy for them!

The day started at a pretty little salon and spa in Enfield, Connecticut called "Scruples." Jaime's awesome makeup was done by Melissa, who is also getting married next October (and we might be fotographing her wedding too!)

Jaime finished getting ready at Scott's parents home in Enfield. Their home is near some beautiful tobacco fields, which Enfield is well known for. The backyard of their property is lovely, and right next to one of the tobacco fields....and we had the most stunningly beautiful, perfect sunny day. Paul & I just had to bring Jaime's dress outside to fotograph!

We loved Jaime's mom...she made us feel like family the minute we walked into the salon, giving us a big hug!!! I love this moment between mom & daughter.

One of my absolute favorite parts of a wedding is when the newlyweds dance with their parents. I usually tear up, it's so emotional....

A friend gave Jaime + Scott a gift of sharing his amazing tap-dancing talent! I tap-danced for years when I was younger, and I was very impressed with this guy!

Jeannette + Daniel's Wedding Book!!

Last October Paul & I fotographed the wedding of Jeannette + Dan at St. Clements Castle in Portland, CT. It was a romantic, rainy day wedding, and I recently finished a gorgeous book design for them. I designed this book to be a spine-on-top book, which is a new, fun style of book offered by Kambara. When open, the book will be a 16x20 spread! I can see this book being printed on metallic paper, with a linen finish, to bring out the brilliance of the both the vibrant & subtle colors of the images. Enjoy!

Click here to view the entire stylin'design by Krystal (a.k.a. KryStyle!)!!!

Here are just a few of my favs:

Eileen + Russell's Book

In September we fotographed the beautiful wedding of Eileen and Russ, and I just finished the design for their wedding book. Eileen and Russ and their families are from our little ole' town of Stafford, and it's been really working with these wonderful families! I wanted to make sure that I had their design ready for Thanksgiving, so that they'd be able to share it with everyone.

Below is the first page spread of their album. Click here to see the full design!! Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!
