Taylor + Andrew’s Lareau Farm Bohemian Dream Wedding

Taylor and Andrew’s wedding at Lareau Farm Inn was a spectacular bohemian dream bursting with such sultry chic style. Every detail inspired me from their exotic umbrella cabana lawn lounge complete with floor pillows to their handwoven summer of love sign, their giant feather plumes with flowers decorating their wedding arch, their handmade wooden cutting board centerpieces made by the groom himself to their boho flags flying high on rafters interwoven with twinkle lights. From white birdcage decor to southwestern cow skull to bowls of colorful paper folding fans, I found color and handmade details everywhere. I loved taking photos of Taylor twirling in the golden light. She was such a free-spirited bride and the entire day was such a dream for this free-spirited photojournalist. We played around with the hay bails and Andrew even launched himself off of one. It was so sweet watching the father-daughter first look between Taylor and her dad. What an awesome, dream-escape it was! I was so captivated and inspired by all that you created and the incredible love surrounding you both. Taylor and Andrew, thank you so much for choosing me to capture it for you!

Amanda + Brian’s Lareau Farm Inn Wedding, Vermont

Amanda and Brian’s outdoor wedding at Lareau Farm Inn in Waitsfield, Vermont, was the perfect setting on Sept. 29th. The day was full of blue skies and puffy, white clouds. The foliage was turning and it was a dream day for a fall wedding. I had the pleasure of working alongside Shawn Cimonetti, who was an amazing second photographer for the day. Shawn captured Brian and the groomsmen getting ready upstairs as I stayed with the ladies downstairs. I loved how the bridesmaids each wore a different dress within the same color palette. Amanda and Brian had their first look out on the porch and we walked around the property taking photos with the wedding party before the ceremony. The outdoor ceremony location at Lareau Farm can’t be beat and is both rustic chic and secluded with surrounding nature. During the reception, their friends surprised this adventure couple with a two bicycles mounted with handmade “Just Married” signs on the front and beer cans tied to the back. They had an epic party and dancing like no other wedding and finished the night with a ShotSki nightcap. What an amazing couple and celebration! Thank you so much, Amanda and Brian, for having us capture your day!

Andrea & Jason’s Basin Harbor Club Wedding Photography

When I arrived at Basin Harbor Club, Andrea and her three bridesmaids were preparing a mimosa toast in their cottage overlooking Lake Champlain. It was a gorgeous, sunny day at the end of September and Vermont was just starting to feel like fall. After the ladies held a toast, they put on their dresses and headed out onto the cottage deck for photos. The wind was coming in unpredictably gusts sending Andrea’s veil flying as the ladies looked out at Lake Champlain. Meanwhile, Jason and his three groomsmen were completely dressed in the nearby Homestead Building after I left Andrea. We wandered around the docks and ledges overlooking Lake Champlain to take portraits.  The water was sparkling and it felt like we had Basin Harbor Club all to ourselves. Before heading to the ceremony, I bounced back to Andrea and we took some gorgeous portraits under the wedding arch, making sure to keep her well hidden from Jason. Andrea hopped in the backseat of her ride with her maid of honor and we headed to Vergennes Congregational Church for the ceremony. When Andrea walked down the aisle with her father, tears welled up in everyone’s eyes. Reverend Gary Lewis held up a magic 8 ball half-way through the ceremony surprising everyone.  Afterwards, we all headed back to Basin Harbor for the reception. Basin Harbor has such incredible photo options for portraits. We started on the Lodge Lawn and worked our way down to the docks with just Andrea and Jason. Their reception took place in the Town Hall. Their first dance had everyone smiling and their wasn’t a dry eye in the room for the father-daughter dance. The day couldn’t have been more gorgeous and was a true honor to be a part of. Congratulations, Andrea and Jason, and thank you so much for having me capture it!
