Gouveia Vineyards Engagement Photography in Wallingford, CT | Eric & Shari

It goes without saying that after a few months of shooting once a week vs. shooting almost once a day (as we do during wedding season), we are probably going to need a few extra minutes to get in our shooting comfort zone. We met Eric and Shari at the sprawling, stunning landscape at Gouveia Vineyards in Wallingford, CT. Eric, Brenden and I arrived at the vineyard and were very enthusiastic about shooting our first 2012 engagement shoot together as a team – then meeting Eric and Shari just made it better. Fortunately for us all, it was insanely warm for February and the opportunity to shoot inside Gouveia, near the tasting bar and in the wine cellar as well as outside on their amazing property and vineyard – huge bonus. Big thanks to Eric and Shari who were extremely patient and easy going while we worked out the kinks.

It is evident from the images and goes without saying, these two are incredibly cute together, the nicest couple ever. They did a really great job with their styling and wardrobe for the shoot (of course, we LOVE, LOVE bright colors).
