Lauren and Justin {West Hartford Reservoir Engagement}

Brian and I had such a great time photographing Lauren and Justin’s West Hartford Reservoir engagement session! This session had been postponed so many times! On this night, the weather forecast looked iffy (again!), but we decided to go for it. And it was INCREDIBLE! The weather was perfect. We were able to explore the woodsy areas, the water and the tall grass. Lauren and Justin are so in love! Brian and I found a new spot that we loved photographing in! We had the best conversation and we all had so much fun!

Brian met Justin a couple of years ago at work, and when Justin and Lauren first became engaged, Justin told Brian right away and we made plans to meet up! We had a great time at that first meeting talking about how they met, their proposal story and their plans for their wedding.

Lauren and Justin travel a lot! Their first date was in Manhattan and when we asked them about a special moment from their dating story, they mentioned a New Hampshire trip. They said they spent time in Portsmouth and the beach, and just really enjoyed being with one another.

Justin had been planning on proposing to Lauren. He said he had that intuitive feeling right away. In fact, even though he had plans for a proposal, one night, he just couldn’t wait any longer and just wanted to be engaged. So, he made a split-second decision to just ask her. Of course, she said yes. And the rest is history!

Congratulations, Lauren and Justin, on your engagement! We are so excited to be a part of your story and we can’t wait for your New Hampshire wedding later this year!

She said YES! Nicki and Drew’s holiday proposal was pure magic. The glow of the lights, the emotion, and the joy were everything. See the full story on the blog. Link in bio.
Merry Christmas, from our hearts to yours.

As a husband and wife team, it is an honor and a privilege to witness love in its most intimate form, two people choosing each other, choosing forever. This season, we are reminded that true luxury is not found in things, but in moments: the quiet exchange of vows, the warmth of a hand held tightly, the feeling of home found in another person.

May your holidays be wrapped in beauty, elegance, and the presence of those you call family. Whether your celebration is a private elopement beneath winter skies or a gathering held close by candlelight, may love be at the center of every memory you keep.

Thank you for being part of our journey and for trusting us with the moments that will become your family legacy. We are deeply grateful.

Wishing you a Christmas filled with magic, and a new year overflowing with devotion, connection, and timeless love.
Happy birthday to the most handsome, talented photographer in the world! Brian, I am so lucky to do life (and business!) with you!
