Julie and Mike; Wedding in Bethel, Connecticut

Yes, wedding season has finally started for me and last Sunday I had the pleasure of photographing Julie and Mike’s AMAZING wedding!   There were flower girls with wings,  classic cars and lots of great vibes!  The girl’s  hair and make up were done by Wendy, Liz, and Trixie of Trixie’s Salon in Bethel.  The flowers were done by A Country Touch, also in Bethel.  And the DJ was Cloud Nine Productions out of Massachusetts.

I honestly feel so honored to of  been able to be a part of Julie and Mike’s wedding.  It was one of those celebrations where you could tell it wasn’t just two people starting their lives together, but two families expanding.   Julie and Mike both come from families with deep roots and huge hearts, and I just want to thank you all for having me and extending that love my way!

So here are a few of my favorite shots from the day.  I hope you all enjoy themicon smile Julie and Mike; Wedding in Bethel, Connecticut

I hung the veil in the window at the salon to get this shot.

I thought Julie’s dress was so fitting to her personality, complete with the jewel she sewed onto it in the middle.

This is Julie sitting outside in the car waiting to enter the church.  I love that you can see the flower girls watching her in the reflection of the car.

Kissing was fair game once the priest announced they could kiss.  I think this was #3, but I loved the way Julie just kept spontaneously kissing Mike.
