Tammy and Tay's Connecticut micro wedding was an intimate weekday celebration with their closest family and friends. It rained, then poured, and they shined through it anyway. This couple had also been photographed earlier for their Cold Spring engagement session.
For this post I got to work once again with Tammy and Tay, this time for their Connecticut micro wedding. You might remember these two from their Cold Spring engagement session in early May, where I made them get in the water and get a little wet, and they totally rocked it.
For their wedding, we did something a little similar, except it was not predicted, not wanted, and definitely not planned: it rained. As much as you can plan an outdoor wedding, you can never plan for the weather. Will it sprinkle? Will it pour? No one will ever know. What I do know is that rain never stops me, and I will always go above and beyond in any creative way to make your wedding photos be you.
I have to say, we truly need to normalize more weekday micro weddings. They are absolutely intimate and a true delight. For Tammy and Tay, having most of their closest family and friends to celebrate their union was just perfect. It rained. It poured. They shined. All smiles.

Good to know
Whether your Connecticut day is sunny or pouring rain, we go above and beyond to capture how you looked and, most importantly, how you felt. Let's make images that remember you.
View our photographyConnecticut sits in southern New England, bordered by New York to the west, Massachusetts to the north, Rhode Island to the east, and Long Island Sound to the south. Its mix of Sound-side towns, river valleys, and wooded inland settings makes it a popular choice for intimate, outdoor weddings within easy reach of the New York City metro area, which is one reason a weekday micro wedding here can feel both private and accessible for traveling guests.
A weekday micro wedding keeps the guest list to your closest family and friends, which makes the day more intimate and often easier to coordinate. For outdoor Connecticut weddings, the one variable no amount of planning controls is the weather. You can prepare for almost everything else, but whether it sprinkles, pours, or stays dry is never knowable in advance, so it helps to choose a photographer who is ready to keep shooting through rain or thunder rather than waiting for clear skies.
