Eloyd and Latitia's Society Room of Hartford Wedding
Ryan Williams
Eloyd and Latitia were married on November 28th with a ceremony and reception at the Society Room of Hartford in Hartford, CT
Eloyd and Latitia met during high school but did not start dating until after they graduated. They have been together for 10 years as of this upcoming June, and it was clear when I was first approached by Eloyd over a year before the wedding that this was a day that the two of them had been looking forward to for some time.
Eloyd is a photographer and videographer, so there is always a little pressure when I’m working for someone who is a artistic professional. We both love creative lighting, and it was important to me not only to give him the look he was asking for but to exceed his expectations.
At first, Latitia wasn’t too sure about doing a first look, but I’m glad that they decided to go ahead and do it. Even though the Society Room is gorgeous, we met up for that tender moment at Hartford City Hall, and ultimately, they both felt that the day was smoother and fuller because of it. Then we went over to the venue for the rest of the images followed by the ceremony and reception.
I especially enjoyed being able to shoot at the Society Room for this wedding. An amazing venue like that helps me to get the best shots possible, and I was glad for the chance to work there. I loved all the little nooks and crannies, especially the old bank vault. We had some fun with that for the portraits.
Thank you, Latitia & Eloyd, for trusting me with your beautiful day. I loved getting to capture every moment.
