Jenn & Alex: Royals Farm Wedding

There’s a lot of pressure on a wedding day. When your bride is a photographer, multiply that by a hundred. Jenn and I used to shoot alongside each other in basketball gyms, capturing action shots of the top athletes in Connecticut. Jenn would always joke that I was going to be her wedding photographer when she met someone!

This was way before she ever even met Alex, so I assumed she was just making small talk! Years later, here we are! Every tiny detail of this entire day was handmade, handpicked and built from scratch…yes, even the barn! It started with her family building and renovating a sprawling property, where there was no detail left overlooked. Along the way, their family suffered a setback when her dad was injured building the barn. The entire community came together, lending a hand in building the foundation for Jenn and Alex’s wedding.

Her sisters wrote and performed their toast, a fireworks show brought excitement to the next level…there were even some ripped dresses from dancing too hard! They had a hell of a party and I am so grateful I got to be there. There were so many favorite #perfectlyunposed moments…

There was such an incredible team working this wedding, special thanks to everyone who made it a perfect day!

(Jenn and Alex, you made my dreams come true that day. I love you and I will see you soon!)
