Katie + Peter: A Connecticut Seaside Wedding
On a spectacular day on the coast of Connecticut, Katie followed family tradition and married her handsome groom in the same spot her parents and grandparents before her were married, at the head of Stonington harbor, at the Wadawanuck Club. This September afternoon delivered a soft easterly breeze and skies ranging in all shades of…
Read MoreKyle + Kerry: Married at Saltwater Farm Vineyard
Kyle and Kerry are married! What a glorious day it was, under sunny, blue skies at Stonington’s Saltwater Farm Vineyard! These two met in 2010 at Boston College in their final semester of school–a friend encouraged Kerry to head out that evening, and they marveled that they had never met before in their relatively small…
Read MoreCarole + Dave: Married at Stonington’s Lighthouse Point
These two went pretty much all local for their outdoor Stonington Lighthouse Point wedding, even finding me on Instagram (you, too can enjoy my diligent oversharing of half-marathon training, Stonington scenes and Portuguese Water Dogs at www.instagram.com/annasawinphoto) to be their wedding photographer! And with good reason–Stonington Boro is a family tradition for Carole and Dave,…
Read MoreDaisy + Mike: Married at Saltwater Farm Vineyard
Our beautiful couple near the marsh at Saltwater Farm Vineyard. View their slide show here! You probably know the age-old English children’s song… “Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do, I’m half crazy all for the love of you. It won’t be a stylish marriage, I can’t afford a carriage. But you’ll look sweet, Upon…
Read MoreAmanda + Matt: Married at Saltwater Farm Vineyard
Amanda and Matt were married twice on a gorgeous October Sunday–once in nearby Watch Hill, RI to enjoy being married by a family friend credentialed in RI, and then once again with family and friends at Saltwater Farm Vineyard. Twice makes perfect, I think–it was a delightful low-key day, just the way these two imagined…
Read MorePeter and Katie: Engagement Session at Mystic Seaport
These two have a special Mystic Seaport family connection, so it was a perfect spot for their fall engagement session, and we had one of those perfect late October days. At Mystic Seaport we can walk and wander, and around every corner is a great photo moment, so we pretty much only stopped when the…
Read MoreLaura + Bill: A Chesapeake Bay Wedding
Remember this weekend? That glorious, best-in-show, warm, incredible summer weekend that showed up at the tail end of September? This was it! And I think we can all thank my couple for that farewell-to-summer weekend: this pair, both senior NOAA staff members, may have known just the right strings to pull for a peerless weekend…
Read MoreChristina + Billy: A Sept. Wedding at Mystic Seaport
Oh, I just loved this wedding! This couple has probably made me laugh more than any other this year–they are so funny, both separately and together, and I knew their wedding day would be a hoot, as they might say in their adopted southern state. Christina and Billy met in 2009 in Hartford, and had…
Read MoreDaisy + Mike: Seaside engagement session
Daisy and Mike joined my in my seaside village of Stonington for their fall engagement session, and it was the perfect combination of leaves beginning to fall mixed with soft, hazy light. We wandered from the village streets to the Stonington fishing docks, to our Avalonia Conservation Land rocky shore in Stonington and finished at…
Read MoreStacey + Nick: A Wedding at the Guilford Yacht Club
I can’t take any credit for sharing this gorgeous affair: the work you see here is entirely by my associate Nicki Pardo, and her associate photographer for this wedding, Hoan Trinh–didn’t they do a beautiful job? This couple, Stacey and Nick, knew from the beginning that they were meant for each other, from sports to…
