Jenny and Matt’s wedding took place on November 26, 2011. We knew Jenny and Matt from the University of Hartford and had shot Jenny’s brother Phil’s wedding a few months prior. It was nice to see all of the same familiar faces along with a few friends we hadn’t seen since school.

Jenny and Matt’s wedding went perfectly and took place on an uncharacteristically warm late November day. The two put so much effort into each and every element. From cross sections of trees with old family photographs on them, to the mason jars full of homemade jam that adorned every table, and to the bundles of wheat along side every pew; their personalities really showed through in the details. There was barely a dry eye during the ceremony as Matt’s sister read a poem she had written specifically for the occasion. Their wedding offered one of those rare moments where you can actually see and feel how in love the two people are; and goes down as one of the most touching ceremonies we’ve ever been privileged to shoot.

Jenny and Matt are artists themselves, so we were definitely excited to shoot their wedding. They both had lots of awesome creative input and were excited for all of our ideas.
