Bristol Train Station Wedding | Chris & Hillary

Happy Thursday Friends! We get to end the week in the most exciting way possible…by sharing the BEAUTIFUL images from Chris & Hillary’s Bristol Train Station wedding!

As we drove down State Street and looked upon the historic Train Station we were already so excited for Chris & Hillary’s big day. We knew from the second we arrived, this was going to be an incredible celebration! The morning was filled with laughter as the amazing hair and makeup artist got the bride ready, and as soon as it was time the bride beamed down the aisle next to the train tracks.

They had a beautiful ceremony and afterwards we explored the scenic station for couple portraits! As soon as we walked through the doors to cocktail hour we knew it was a true fiesta! Amazing drinks and appetizers were passed around, the guest were free to mix and mingle, take polaroid pictures for the custom guest book (how cool is that?!), and the guests were treated to an open bar! Then guests headed into the navy and champagne reception, where sequins and peonies sparkled throughout the evening!

After an amazing dinner and an adorable welcome sign, the DJ started to spin some tracks and they were incredible! We’ve worked with a lot of DJs, but we have never seen such a dedicated group with this much fun, energy, and such incredible stage presence! It was one of the most incredible celebrations we have ever experienced, and we are so excited to share a few of our favorites!

hi, i'm danielle—

In the past 10+ years as a Wedding & Portrait Photographer, I’ve found that, aside from arming myself with my cameras to catch swoon-worthy moments of my couples on their day, I’m also bringing a few other unexpected things. 

Like my tough love mom-voice that will keep your bridal party in check, my air of calm if you’re feeling overwhelmed, and the corniest jokes so no one has the jitters in front of the camera!

Because so much more goes into getting those gorgeous wedding photos than just hitting “click!”

and I'm not just bringing my camera to your big day.

Wanna know what you need for
