Kristin and Frank invited me to be their wedding photographer when I met them earlier this year, and I was excited to be asked knowing they were great fans of the photographic arts. We started the day at Kristin’s Mom’s house where she got ready and then made our way to St. Patrick’s Church in Farmington where we caught up with Frank and the boys. Here are some photos from their day…
Kristin’s looked slowly over at her Mom coming into the kitchen so as not to mess up the hairdresser.
The bridesmaid’s got themselves together upstairs as Kristin got done up on the first floor.
I thought this reflection in the microwave was kinda cool.
Mom came back into the kitchen to get things ready for that evening’s afterparty, and sneaked a peek at Kristin’s developing hairdo.
I stood in the tub to capture this shot of Kristin preparing to put on her makeup.
While the bridemaids left early to bring the flowers to the church, Kristin’s mom helped with putting on her dress…
…as well as her earrings.

The church was beautiful inside, and filled with Kristin and Frank’s friends and family.
Kristin gently wiped a tear from Frank’s cheek before they exchanged rings.
Frank’s Mom was clearly overjoyed by the ceremony.
The first kiss.
We shot this Quick Portrait when we next visited the beautiful Elizabeth Park in Hartford for some additional formals.

Kristin’s bridesmaids let loose a bit as the DJ got the crowd moving.
Many from the wedding party made their way into the entryway where the dessert buffet was eventually put out.
This shot of Kristin was made through the ice sculpture on the dessert buffet.
Ready, aim…
Kristin and Frank’s friends, UConn grads all, gathered in a circle to sing the UConn fight song.

And then it was the last dance of the day.
