So, here we go....after being sick at home with bronchial phenomena for a good part of the winter, and then gone for the last month to Las Vegas for the WPPI convention (for those of you who don't know, this the one of the largest trade show/seminar conventions for professional photographers in the world!) and then finally for some rest & relaxation at the "We Click" Married Photographers Retreat (or in our case, almost married : ) I'm finally able to sit down and catch up on some posts that we haven't had the chance to do yet. The main focus of these posts will be to show the imagery we've been creating, so we won't be writing a lot for these posts.

First up is the lovely wedding of beautiful Jennifer and her handsome groom Pedro! Jennifer + Pedro's wedding reception was held at the magnificent Society Room in Hartford. Enjoy the images, and feel free comment- we love your feedback!












Pedro sent his sweetheart a lovely bouquet of flowers that morning with a note.....enough said.












Flowers by the uber-talented Tony & Cat of Datura: A Modern Garden. Tony & Cat are doing our flowers too....we can't wait to see what they come up with for us!


















The ring bearers being sneaking a look at Jennifer as she gets laced up. : )



These kids are so stinking cute I can't stand it!






Jennifer hand-crafted her own programs- how lovely!




































Pedro has a thing for kissing his sweetheart's hand....maybe its Portuguese thing : ) (Or maybe it's just because he is that sweet!)









This little dude thought it was the funniest thing to keep removing his clip-on tie!









Empty cans of soda pop from Peru & Portuguese (the heritages of the couple) decorated the get-away car.






Bushnell Park in Hartford provided a beautiful background for some group shots. It was also the perfect place for them to have some alone time.
























After the park, it was off for a scroll thru beautiful Hartford, to the Society Room.






When I saw the golden light of the setting sun reflecting off the mirrored buildings at the most perfect angle, I literally started squealing with joy at the photographic possiblities! Jennifer & Pedro loved my enthusiasm and were more than happy to sneak in a few more shots before reaching the Society Room.
























Isn't this such a grand place for a grand entrance?



And...there's a balcony perfect for getting some aerial shots!


















I LOVE this shot of Pedro.






Jennifer + Pedro's Love Book that we made for them of their Love Shoot, surrounded by a fantastic display of the couple's history. I loved the place card holders using wine corks.



The band "Triple Play Trio" rocked the house!



















































Pedro and his buddies have a groovy rock band named "Fungacide." They have had a special appearance at each of the band member's weddings! It was such a great personal touch to the wedding... we love when our couples make their wedding their own!





















Love the way Jennifer is gazing at her new husband here....









More of Tony & Cat's amazing work...









There is a old vault at the Society Room....so of course we had to use it.









"Godfather" Pedro with his niece & nephew.






























Hope you enjoyed this post......check back frequently, as the rest of March & April is we are officially declaring "blog mania month!"

Check out this quick little video we filmed with our Cannon 5D Mark II at the wedding of Fungacide jamming! They just happened to play a snippet of me and Paul's theme song from our website...."I Believe in a Thing Called Love" from the Darkness! Way to hit the high notes Pedro!

The garder Alex Rubel tells us that there have been held three Flower girl dresses in the

rainforest, there are still many new people booking their wedding here. Everyone want to have a speacil memory in the forest, they have expect the Wedding Jackets in a different area to have a special experience.
People like close to nature, Top Organza Wedding Dress which made

the rainforest becomes an excellent place to get married. The rainforest are not boring at all, you can close to various animals.

Actully, the level of closing to animals has left the Lace wedding dresses
of curious of the local “residents”. For they always go to inspect when there are cocktail parties. A fox go to attend the first wedding here which made the wedding

interesting, and everyone like it very much. So why not try to have your Halter

Wedding Dresses

in the tropical rainforest and leave a special memory in your life.
In regards to currently trend of wedding ceremony, in addition to Tropical Wedding, let’s take Switzerland as an example.
