I can’t believe Im typing this but I have been photographing weddings at Farmington Gardens for over 10 years! Its kind of my second home wedding venue 🙂 The Chabot family has been fantastic to work with all these years as well as Courtney, Ashley and all the staff. I always look forward to great meals, sunsets in the field with my couples and a packed dance floor!  Combine that with my studio being only 10 minutes down the road and you have one happy photographer. If you are a Farmington Gardens couple please reach out! I know every inch of the venue, what works/ doesn’t under certain conditions and offer a preferred vendor discount 🙂

Cheers!

Luke
