Oh, Katherine + Tim. What can I even say about these two? I mean, besides, “I totally love them.” Dearest blog readers, you’ve not met these two before, because I’ve not ever posted their engagement photos (but I will!), so let me give some back story.
Katherine is in medical school with the goal of becoming a pediatrician — so can you say kind, patient and caring? But the greatest thing is that I’d use all three of those words to describe Tim, too. Being around them is like a breath of fresh air; their calmness suffuses each situation in which they find themselves. They spend almost every minute together laughing (love it). And given the insane year they’ve had (chock full of every type of mental, emotional and physical hurdle and bit of bad news you could imagine), their positivity is all the more impressive.
But I truly believe the universe takes notice of stuff like that and evens the score when the time time is right. And my suspicions were confirmed when Tim + Katherine’s ENTIRE wedding day went off perfectly. Not only was everything on time, but NOTHING went wrong — not one single thing. And I can’t tell you how much it filled my heart with joy for the two of them, because they deserved nothing less.
On with the show!
How gorgeous was Katherine’s veil (not to mention the bride herself!)? And their church was pretty danged fancy, too — I just love the photo of the organist. But the best part? The “Holy crumbs, we’re married!” photo down at the bottom. Ugh, love it.
Their reception was at Aqua Turf (chosen after their first venue went out of business and cancelled all pending weddings — yikes!). It’s a lovely place, but a little too manicured for my tastes, so I wandered the property until I found this hidden, overgrown corner (below) for bridal party photos. One of the attendants from the venue who was checking up on us said it was only the 2nd time she’d ever seen a photographer use that area — THAT’S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR! :D
The way Tim looks at Katherine? Let’s just say I wish I had a hundred extra thumbs so I could put them all up! Um, and hello to Katherine’s eye color? RIGHT!? Were I a poet, I might have to describe them as, “limpid pools.” It’s a good thing I’m not a poet. :)
My absolute favorite photo from the whole day is the last one on the left. It’s perfectly “them.”
Katherine + Tim: Thank you so much for inviting me into your lives. I could not have asked for a better way to end my run in Connecticut, and I miss you both already. Keep that good luck streak going, k? :)
