Kelley and Ross had such a wonderful day for their wedding at the Mountain Top Inn in Chittenden, VT. I had gotten to know them during their engagement session in Keene, and I knew I was going to enjoy photographing their wedding.They chose to see each other before the ceremony, and we were able to take advantage of the many great locations for photos. Their ceremony was at the Mountain Top's White Birches house, and there were some really nice places for portraits of the two of them right around the house.They had a wonderful dinner down at the Inn, and then headed up to the Jewel House for the cake cutting and dancing & music.Kelley and Ross are so happy and in love, and it was such a great honor to be able to capture all of the beauty that was a part of their wedding day.
There were some beautiful locations for portraitsof the bride and groom before the ceremony.
