Christine and Tim booked me some time ago for their wedding last month, so it was great to finally be able to photograph them once the big day came around. The day began early in the morning at the Batik Salon in South Windsor, CT for hair and makeup for Christine and her bridesmaids, after which we went to her parent’s house where she finished getting ready. The ceremony was in the beautiful St. Bridget Church in Manchester, and we finished the day at the Farmington Club with a super-fun reception. Here are some photos from the day…
