When Stefanie & Chris asked me to photograph their wedding, it felt like eons away. Both of them were studying to be doctors and they decided on a long engagement, focusing on their careers and putting in long hours at the hospital. So, I've been looking forward to capturing their wedding day for quite some time now and was over the moon about their gorgeous venue, the Lord Thompson Manor in Connecticut. I was so inspired by Stef's vision of deep hues, fruit on the table, and really cool objects like...

Bridget and Mike had the most flawless summer wedding at Lord Thompson Manor in Thompson, CT. The bridal prep was bright and white with touches of sparkles. The groom and groomsmen dressed in classic black and white tuxes. I absolutely love the combination of a stunning mansion but with a short walk beyond the ceremony space you’re walking in the woods (and a walk you could do in heels!) We got most of the portraits out of the way before the ceremony so everyone could enjoy the cocktail reception with Bridget...

Kristine Vichiola (28 and a teacher) and PJ Cochrane (24 and works in account management) tied the knot in an elegant wedding in Connecticut. The couple originally met through the bride’s younger brother and other mutual friends. For the proposal, PJ surprised Kristine with a getaway weekend to Rhode Island where he popped the question on a cliff overlooking the ocean. “It was a dream come true!” says the bride. As soon as they visited Lord Thompson Manor and heard the venue’s concept of a “wedding weekend,” which includes a...

After touring nearly 20 venues across Connecticut, Tara Azizi (23 and a nurse) and Jesse Cooper (29 and works in finance) immediately fell in love with the simplicity and grandeur of Lord Thompson Manor in Thompson, Connecticut. "During our tour, we looked at each other and knew it was our place," Tara says. An elegant color scheme of lavender and gold played up the manor's all-white interior and lush grounds, where Tara and Jesse exchanged vows in a ceremony that incorporated Baha'i and Jewish traditions. "We were fortunate enough to...

Rachel Weisblatt (27 and a lawyer) and Jacob Fetherol’s (26 and a US Marines veteran and a music student) wedding at Lord Thompson Manor was the picture of romantic sophistication. “As soon as I saw Lord Thompson Manor, I knew we had to be married there and Jacob felt the same way,” Rachel says. Set in the countryside of Connecticut on a 40-acre estate, Lord Thompson Manor offered the couple a picturesque setting to host their nuptials. The day started with an intimate ceremony in the estate’s gardens, with Rachel...
