Felicity and Matt have a special place in my heart. For starters, their engagement session had to be rescheduled multiple times due to crappy weather and other issues that were out of our hands. With a wedding at the start of the wedding season, they were also one of my first couples to be impacted by the pandemic. This is definitely a bummer but it’s one of those things where I know once Felicity and Matt’s wedding day arrives it’s going tot take on this added sense of celebration. People are gonna be ready to party.
Felicity and Matt picked Colt State Park in Bristol, RI for their engagement session. I had not shot at this place before but I was super curious- Felicity and Matt picked it because it delivered both foliage-filled areas as well as great coastal scenery. It totally delivered and I have suggested it a few times since then.
Our session was a great chance to get a feel for what it was like working with each other. This is why I ALWAYS suggest engagement sessions happen. Felicity and Matt had some photos that they liked which gave me guidance but they were totally cool with walking into the bushes or climbing on the rocks for me. They also had really cool Game of Thrones inspired shirts.
A few months ago the thought that wedding season might get so universally screwed up by something like this never crossed my mind. I’m sorry it has but all we can do is grab something and look forward to it. I am looking forward to Felicity and Matt’s wedding and will be investing in extra memory cards in case I go overboard in my photo count.
