When Wendy + Michael asked me to come to Connecticut for their engagement session at Hartford City Hall I was an immediate yes! Hartford City Hall is a grand building full of classic architecture and is truly a space that makes you immediately say "wow" when you first enter. From it's 3 story tall ceilings with grand balconies in every level, to the detailed filled decor, it is the perfect spot for engagement photos that will leave your photos feeling elevated.



We met for drinks beforehand to go over their wedding day and dream up their vision. Soon after, we got to adventure around the grand staircases, and towering balconies of the city hall. The two could not have been more fun and romantic and made every photo look effortless. It was a beautiful evening that ended with a few frames outside in front with beautiful architecture and truly made for an amazing night!
