Yadi and Jordan married at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center in Stamford, Connecticut, in a pandemic-era micro wedding held on a Tuesday, with only their closest people present. Acromatico, a family-run South Florida and New York photography studio, photographed the day for two friends it had known since first arriving in NY.
This was a micro wedding in the middle of a pandemic, the kind of day where you can only have the closest of people right by your side. Yadi was the first person we "met" before moving to NY, back when we all got to volunteer together, and Jordan fell in love with the girl of his dreams from day one. Their love story was far from easy: distance, a whole pandemic, many FaceTime sessions and a whole football season later, here they were, getting married on a Tuesday.
The weather couldn't have been more perfect on this late-winter, sneak-peeky spring wedding. Bridal hair and makeup were by @hairbymorghan with additional hair and makeup by @heytayheyy, the dress came from Kleinfeld Bridal, and flowers were by Wild Fig Floral. Decor was styled by @the_kelsanator and @blondiebritgirl, with cake by @lets.get.taystee and @cakeaffairs and donuts from @donutcrazy. It was an honor to witness and capture it.

Good to know
The Stamford Museum & Nature Center sits on High Ridge Road in Stamford, Connecticut, in the northern part of the city in Fairfield County, roughly an hour northeast of New York City along the Metro-North New Haven Line. The 118-acre property combines a working New England farm, woodland trails, a pond and museum buildings, which makes it a natural fit for an intimate, outdoor-leaning micro wedding rather than a large ballroom event.
Because the grounds blend open farmland, water and tree cover, light and backdrops change quickly across the property. For couples planning a small ceremony here, a late-winter or early-spring date, like this Tuesday wedding, can deliver crisp, soft light and far more privacy than peak-season weekends. A weekday micro wedding is also one of the simplest ways to keep a guest list small while still using a venue this scenic.
