Riverhouse at Goodspeed Station Wedding Photos

I am finally posting photos from Mike and Keira’s beautiful wedding at The Riverhouse at Goodspeed Station in Haddam, CT.  Mike and Keira were enjoying a much needed honeymoon in France so I waited until I knew they were back home.  I tried to convince them to take me to Champagne with them but for some reason they didn’t want a photographer at their honeymoon.

Mike and Keira’s wedding was a unique fusion of military and Jewish traditions and was simply an elegant wedding.  These photos are my favorites that tell their story.  Watch for the slideshow which I’ll be posting soon for more.

The Riverhouse at Goodspeed Station was a gorgeous location.  The bridal suite was elegantly decorated and made for a lovely background while Keira prepared for her wedding.

Mike and Keira choose to do a first look before the ceremony so we could get the family portraits done and they could join the cocktail hour.  The stairs at The Riverhouse made a wonderful location.

A stunning ketubah.

And I especially loved that the ketubah and chupah matched.  The outdoor ceremony patio at The Riverhouse was beautiful and the rain stayed away.

Signing the ketubah.  Most of my photos are photojournalist meaning I don’t influence the image I simply photograph what I see as it happens – I like being a fly on the wall.  As I was photographing the signing Mike and Keira were being so cute and in love then I noticed the mirror and got a little artsy with the image.  One of those unique moments I am always looking for at your wedding.

Another one of those moments I love between the flower girl and bride.  I wonder what she was whispering?
