Topsmead State Forest is one of my favorite locations in Connecticut for engagement sessions. The mansion, stone walls, and open fields make for some very scenic spots to take portraits.

Susan and David’s early Spring engagement session in Elizabeth Park, West Hartford, CT & Bushnell Park, Hartford, CT. Both parks hold special meaning to Susan and David, and are relatively close so it was easy to travel between them. The Elizabeth Park greenhouse is one of my favorite spots for couples portraits. I love the […]

Ashley & Brian’s Fall engagement session at Devil’s Hopyard: Both Ashley and Brian are self-described ‘homebodies’ who love simple pleasures like Fall fairs like The Big E and Durham Fair, and love fair food! Also in the Fall, you can typically find them watching football on Sundays and attending the Haunted Graveyard at Lake Compounce. […]

For Chelsea & Jack’s engagement session, we utilized the historical architecture of Yale University’s campus in New Haven then concluded with some intimate & fun sunset photos at Lighthouse Point Park.
