Wedding: K & B - Chanler at Cliff Walk - Newport, RI
Spring is the perfect time of year for daffodils, rabbits, and weddings in Rhode Island! Kayleigh and Brian tied the knot at The Chanler at Cliff Walk just as all the florals in Newport were bursting!
I first began working with K & B in May of 2019, while I was in Scotland photographing a wedding. Despite the time-zone difference, my initial phone call with Kayleigh was about two hours long; it felt as though I was speaking with an old friend who was planning her wedding. They came to Bermuda for a pre-planning trip and we scheduled an engagement session - that they nailed! Wedding plans were moving along “swimmingly” and then - Covid. Like so many other couples, Kayleigh and Brian held out hope that their April 2020 wedding in Bermuda would occur, although we know how that story went. So… K & B re-planned their wedding - not once, not twice, but three times; finally, moving the wedding from Bermuda to Rhode Island. So - off I went to join K & B in New England with my luggage, camera gear, my mom - aka my trusty travel companion to assist while Jim stayed home with our cats! K & B’s spring time New England wedding was magical - from the daffodils in bloom to the weather - the day could simply not be beat!
There are some couples you have the opportunity of working with who magically - become life-long friends. I can easily say this of Kayleigh & Brian. Many congrats to Kayleigh & Brian on this special time in their lives! Thank you both for allowing me to be a part of it!
