Harkness Memorial State Park is just magical.  Whatever time of year that you visit it has a different yet welcoming feel.  I love shooting there and frankly can’t wait to go back.  There are areas that I have yet to explore.   Arlene and Sam are so easy going yet organized at the same time.    Arlene did a lot of her wedding details herself which I love being the crafty one that I am.   They came about their color theme when Sam suggested that he liked orange and then Arlene mentioned that she liked purple.  Viola, one of my favorite palettes, secondary colors.  This was a beautiful affair and you can tell from my long blog post that I enjoyed shooting it.

I loved Arlene’s birdcage veil.

And her Marissa dress

The flowers were by Thames River Greenery

Arlene is simply stunning in this gown

This is probably one of my favorite shots of the two of them.  It’s such a great hug.

I love the Steamship that’s passing behind them

Congratulations Arlene & Sam!  Thank you for making me a part of your beautiful day!
