Hi! I'm Laura!

I’m a wedding and brand photographer for creative and adventurous hearts and and your resident work-life balance aficionado. I’m so glad you’re here!
My favorite thing in life is sitting out by my fire-pit with a glass of Riesling and a s’more in hand with friends and family surrounding me. I'm rarely ever found without a warm blanket wrapped around me, and If my wallet didn't frown upon it, I’d probably buy everything in Anthropologie Home and Free People.

When you get an inquiry for a Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding, your heart tends to beat a little faster.  The second I received Jaclyn and Colin’s email to photograph their wedding, I knew I’d be in for an incredible day.

 

I visited Blue Hill for a quick tour a few weeks ago and to say my jaw dropped when I arrived to it’s beautiful courtyard and pastures would be an understatement.  It felt magical, and made me even more excited to be a part of Jaclyn and Colin’s wedding day!

 

I arrived at the Tarrytown House and Estate where the girls and guys were all getting ready and got to meet both of their families and friends right away. The girls were decked head to toe in Lulu Lemon and the guys were upstairs hanging on the porch (lucky them for not needing hair and makeup!!)

 

When everyone got dressed and hair and make up was done we all went over to Blue Hill at Stone Barns where the ceremony and reception were taking place.  After Jaclyn got into her gown, we strolled to the back of the barn overlooking the property for her and Colin’s first look.  His face when he turned around was pure joy and I can see why- Jaclyn looked STUNNING.

 

We took portraits near the barn and then made our way up into the fields for some pictures overlooking the property. I think it was the most breathtaking venue view I’ve ever taken a picture of and putting Jaclyn and Colin right into that mix was just making me so giddy with excitement!!!

 

When the wedding party came out to join us, the light was perfectly golden and was shining right over the silo. I couldn’t come up with a better scenario if I dreamt it to be honest!!  After the wedding party pictures were done, the family met us by the old wooden barn doors for formals, and then everyone gathered inside before the ceremony.  We had soooo much time, so as guests entered the courtyard, we were able to take a ton of group shots of everyone and get the reception details done early!  This allowed us to attend cocktail hour and continue taking candids and I’m so glad we were able to because we also got to experience some of the most unique and beautiful cocktail hour food I’ve ever seen!!

 

The ceremony was absolutely breathtaking, under the big tree in the courtyard, Jaclyn and Colin promised forever to each other with their own vows.  The joined guests in the vegetable garden for their cocktail hour afterwards which was seriously incredible and so so beautiful!

 

After guests were led to the reception, everyone was seated for Jaclyn and Colin’s entrance and they then shared their first dance, and their parent dances.  The Dylan Matthews Project was their incredibly talented band and they immediately got the floor jam packed for an incredible night of dancing! They were so unbelievably talented!!

 

Overall, this Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding is topping the charts for one of the most unbelievably beautiful wedding I’ve ever been a part of. Jaclyn and Colin- thank you for giving me the honor of documenting your special day- I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!
