Farrell and Darius’s Wedding at the Dauntless Club in Essex CT!
A storm named Irene didn’t deter Farrell and Darius from getting married on August 27th in Essex CT with an outdoor tented reception alongside the docks of the Dauntless Club on the Connecticut River. Everything came together beautifully despite the hurricane, with the weather holding off until all were safely under the Sperry Tent (OK, so a few hours later things were a little different as these photos show).
Farrell was beaming all day, and looking at the her photos you can’t help but smile. She looked great in her mother’s classic lace top wedding dress from the 1970s, fitted by Dorothy Staley their good friend and dress designer from Madison CT. And Darius in his poplin suit (from Essex’s own J. Alden Clothiers) and Vineyard Vines tie looked great as well. Onto to the reception where Farrell’s father toasted the couple, remarking that parenting Farrell was such a pleasure he’d gladly do it all over again. And the Maid of Honor read from her “best friend certificate” with Farrell and the list of required boyfriend attributes that she and Farrell made as little girls…just to make sure Darius measured up!
The folks from Thyme to Cook catered New England style with chowder and a raw bar. The perfect pastel flowers came from the Madison Flower Shop. The Sultans of Swing, who we’ve worked with before on the CT shore, kept the dancing going strong. And we have to commend Sperry Tents…these guys are troupers…that night they had to take down 19 tents in the area due to Irene.
Farrell and Darius, great wedding! Thanks so much and congratulations….glad you got to your honeymoon after all!!

Noelle’s Family Photography at Elizabeth Park in West Hartford
“Just Cate” is a new book by West Hartfordites Noelle and Angela…a “dual memoir of two lifelong friends and the unexpected child who leads them to simply what matters most.” I photographed the “Just Cate” book cover and website this past spring (I’ll blog these images after the book launch) and got a chance to photograph Noelle’s family during our summer portrait sessions, with images below. It was lovely to meet the rest of Noelle’s family and see Cate again…Cate and her sisters are a riot with lots of life!
The “Just Cate” book and website launches this fall. You can follow them on Facebook here to keep posted on the launch!
