Backyard Wedding in Waterford, CT | Kelly + Andrew

June 10, 2023

{Waterford, CT 6.10.23}

There’s something so special about a backyard wedding, especially when it’s on a family farm. Kelly and Andrew’s Waterford wedding was everything you could dream of—intimate, full of love, and packed with personal touches that made the day uniquely theirs. I had the honor of capturing their beautiful day, and it was one for the books!

A warm summer wedding on the fam farm…

The day was warm and sunny, perfect for a summer celebration at Kelly’s family farm in Waterford, Connecticut. Surrounded by fields and nature, the setting was straight out of a dream. The rustic charm of the farm created the perfect backdrop for their elegant wedding, with delicate floral arrangements and vintage touches everywhere you looked.

From the moment Kelly and Andrew exchanged letters before the ceremony (and let me tell you, the tears were REAL), it was clear that these two were a perfect match. Their love for each other was palpable, and every moment felt like it could be a scene in a romantic movie. I just had to capture every candid, heartfelt moment.

Personal details that made their day special…

One of the highlights of the day was Kelly’s idea to recreate a scene from Friends. She had this brilliant vision of herself and her best friends in their wedding dresses, all snuggled on a couch together—just like that iconic moment from the show. It was one of those moments that made me smile so big. (Keep scrolling to see the adorable shot, trust me, it’s worth it!)

And then, of course, the newlywed portraits. Can we talk about how dreamy it was to capture Kelly and Andrew in front of the horses on the farm? The love they share, paired with the soft golden hour light, made for some truly magical photos. These moments were the perfect reminder of why I love wedding photography—it’s all about capturing raw emotion and those fleeting, beautiful moments.

A day to remember…

Every wedding has its special moments, but Kelly and Andrew’s wedding was truly unforgettable. From the laughter-filled ceremony to the emotional first dance and all the little details in between, it was a day filled with love, joy, and timeless memories.
