Claire + Matt Wedding 2.0

May 14, 2025

An extended celebration on the shores of Lake Champlain

What’s better than photographing a beautiful couple once? Getting to do it twice 😉

Claire and Matt were one of my “Covid Couples” meaning, they still went ahead with their planned celebration (just on a smaller scale) and held off on their larger celebration until a later date. I certainly didn’t mind because like I said, Claire and Matt were and absolute dream to work with. They are truly two of the kindest souls and knowing they have found their soulmate in each other makes me so happy. My already grand opinions of these two were just set in stone when we got to the toasts and they gave me a special shoutout. WHAT?! Waterworks, instantly. I couldn’t believe it and it’s a moment that will live rent free in my memory forever and ever.

Claire and Matt, thank you so much for inviting me into your lives and trusting me not once but twice to capture incredibly important moments for you. I loved every second and I hope you enjoy reliving your perfect day (again) through this blog post!
