Weddings in Vermont are always beautiful, but there’s something about photographing Vermonters in their own state that makes me especially happy. Courtney + Matt call the Burlington area home, but chose to celebrate their wedding at one of our favorite places: Hildene, the Lincoln Family Home. By pure luck they wound up with one of the most spectacular fall days I’ve ever seen: foliage bursting with color, blue skies peppered with little clouds, and weather…
Maggie and Kevin, our fellow feline fanatics, tied the knot on a sparkling clear fall day at Hildene earlier this month. Manchester has become a special place for Maggie; Kevin has loved it since he was young, as his family has long had a home practically next door to Hildene’s treelined drive. Family and friends gathered in the historic garden, surrounded by hills hinting at stunning fall foliage; the ceremony was poignantly touching, with emotional…
I joined Katie + Rob for their joyful summer wedding celebration at the Inn at Manchester, a sweet country inn nestled in the town of Manchester, Vermont. The day started off with a torrential downpour just as I arrived into town, but the storm quickly moved off and left behind beautiful blue skies and warm sunshine! Family and friends witnessed their heartfelt ceremony (complete with a retelling of how they met while at college together)…
Brooke + Corey chose the lovely Inn at Manchester (tucked just off the main road through the center of Manchester, Vermont) for their destination wedding celebration, bringing family and loved ones with them from along the east coast. A bit of a drizzly day kept the ceremony under the barn’s spacious covered patio, but it didn’t stop the party! The skies cleared enough for us to wander the property for some portraits before enjoying dinner…
It’s amazing to see a meticulous plan come together! Megan + Erik’s Vermont wedding unfolded seamlessly on a picture-perfect fall day. While many of our clients escape the confines of New York City in favor of the Green Mountain State for their celebration weekend, these two have their own retreat nestled in the nearby hills. This allowed Megan to get ready at their home with friends and family, setting the tone for a day that…
We first met up with Nina + AJ at the base of Mount Mansfield just before their engagement session. The adventurous spirit that brought us to the top of a 4000′ Vermont peak on that sunny June afternoon was present throughout their entire wedding day. (Of course having Hildene as the background for their Vermont wedding doesn’t hurt!) Nina began her day at the nearby Hill Farm Inn while AJ got ready with family and…
Hayley + Nick’s beautiful wedding may have had a slightly drizzly start, but the warmth and affection from the people they surrounded themselves with kept smiles on everyone’s faces. We met Haley over a year ago around the corner from their wedding venue… while photographing a different wedding! Manchester, Vermont is a frequent destination for couples coming up from the New York City area, but Hayley and Nick are effectively locals, having a family home…
Who had fun at Claire + Jamis’ wedding? We’ll take a wild guess and say EVERYONE. We certainly did! From the gorgeous setting in scenic Manchester, Vermont to the giant bonfire to close the evening, this wedding was borderline epic from start to finish. While the spring greenery and rolling hills certainly make for lovely images, our very favorite thing was these two and their striking love for each other. Their genuine joy and excitement…
Lauren and Will’s wedding at the Inn at Manchester, a delightful family-owned venue in beautiful Manchester, Vermont, was the perfect way to begin our wedding season up north. Rainy? Sure, but we all saw that coming. Rain is always a possibility for spring weddings, but the love and excitement of their day couldn’t be dampened. Working with these two hardly felt like work; their easygoing attitudes and the clear support and joy from their friends…
How do we begin to say how much we love working at Hildene? It’s a place that seems untouched by the passage of time, and lets you have a truly old-world feel at a facility with modern conveniences. Working with Nicole (the stellar wedding coordinator on-site) is an added bonus; she cares deeply for all of her wedding clients, and you can really see how much she puts into these events! Many couples choose to…
Update: we’ve added the back blog posts! They’re back-dated so they appear in order. We’ll leave this post up because we kinda love seeing all of these images together. :-) We know. We’ve been neglecting our blog for months. We had an incredible season working in Vermont (yes, we’re local there in the summer and fall now!) and we can’t wait to share some of our favorite images. Here are a few favorites to tide…
