Today is Valentines’ Day, and we wanted to wish all of our clients and friends a day filled with love and kisses! We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the day than with a set of winter wonderland inspired engagement photos to share with you all.
I was lucky enough to meet these two back in 2011 (thanks to our friend, Penney!) and was so thrilled when they chose us to photograph their wedding day. I instantly knew we’d have a great time working together, but seriously they made my job easy this day because they are so darn cute together! Rachel is a natural beauty and she has this incredible smile (as you can see)! Dan is such a gentleman and has such a fun and easy-going personality. It was pretty clear how smitten he was that day playing in the snow at the beautiful Ogden House in Fairfield, CT. I love their rockin’ 70′s blanket too! ;-)
We headed over to Southport (a section of Fairfield, but the local historic district near the water) and used the old train station as our backdrop for some of the photos. Soon after, we needed to warm these two up so we headed on over to the Delamar Southport hotel, where one of our favorite restaurants is located. If you haven’t heard of it yet, it has gotten rave reviews since it opened and it is known for it’s seasonally inspired, farm to table menu. Bring your friends and family, because it is something special! Many thanks to Artisan Restaurant for allowing us to cozy on up at the bar, sample some delicious food and cocktails, before we finished up our photo shoot around the hotel and restaurant.
Stay cozy and warm this Valentine’s Day, and remember… “All you need is love. Love is all you need.” – The Beatles
