There is something undeniably cinematic about a proposal by the sea. When Stjepan reached out a few weeks before his and Sophie’s Mystic vacation, he had a clear vision: he wanted to ask the love of his life to marry him against a backdrop that was as breathtaking as the moment itself. Their Enders Island...

The absolute best kind of secret.
There is something so incredibly special about being invited into a moment like this. Stjepan reached out to us to help plan the perfect surprise for Sophie during their weekend getaway vacation in Mystic, and we couldn`t have been more honored to be there.
Planning every detail with Stjepan to ensure the moment was perfectly captured was a responsibility we don`t take lightly. Watching the pure joy on Sophie’s face when she realized what was happening? That’s exactly why we love what we do.
Cheers to the newly engaged couple! We are so happy for you both.
She said yes! ❤️💍
We have the best job in the world!!!!

Sweet Penelope 🤍
I do not get to photograph newborns often, but I truly love lifestyle newborn photography. There is something so special about slowing down and documenting these first tender days at home. Photographing Penelope’s session with her loving parents, Sarah and Tom, was such an honor.
This precious girl was an absolute angel. The only time she made a sound was when her mommy and daddy were not touching her. She clearly loves being safe in their arms, right where she belongs.
Sarah and Tom, thank you for trusting me to snuggle your beautiful baby and capture her very first photo session. Congratulations to your sweet family on the arrival of your perfect little darling.
Eloping doesn’t mean skipping the magic 💍✨
An engagement session captures this once-in-a-lifetime season of your love story, helps you feel confident in front of the camera, and gives you beautiful photos to treasure forever.
Thinking about eloping in Connecticut? Don’t miss this must-read!
