Welcome to Daria + Andy's blog!

Daria Bishop Photographers is us, Daria and Andy Bishop, a wife and husband team…and we specialize in exceptional wedding photography!  We realize that each wedding is as unique as you are, so we approach each wedding with new eyes and a fresh perspective.

A wedding can take a year or more to plan but ends in a day.  We capture the love, romance, people, emotion and details, which you’ve worked so hard to bring together and that tell the story of your amazing day.  Our distinctive and award-winning style combines real moments with the magic from your wedding so you can remember and cherish your celebration for the joyous years to come.

We're totally in love with each other, our two beautiful children Summer and Baxter, our dog, Yeti and cat, Lucky.  We are passionate about photography, love, and life, and truly enjoy the fabulous couples we get to meet along the way!

We would be honored and thrilled to photograph your wedding!

Andrea + Brad have the distinction of being our first wedding of the 2010 season. Believe it or not, I always get butterflies when I haven’t photographed a wedding for a while, but upon meeting Andrea + Brad that nervous feeling fluttered away. They were such fun and friendly people and we had a blast all day! It really was the nicest way to start our busy season!!
I am so excited to share their wedding day highlights with you. Keep an eye out for a couple unexpected moments as you scroll down. 
I posted their wedding slideshow at the bottom, so you can see even more wedding goodness!
Enjoy…

Let’s start with the pretty gown and shoes…

A warning to grooms: If you wear a lily of the valley boutonniere, you can expect some sniffing.  They smell AMAZING!! :)

Rev. Gleeson gave such a heartfelt ceremony for Andrea + Brad.  The perfect blend of humor and reality.

A warning to brides: Be sure your veil is very secure on windy days or this might happen to you!! Thankfully, Andrea was very good humored about it.  This is just one reason she would win an award for the coolest bride ever!!

The guys looked mighty stylish.

We found this cute little shop to take photos in front of.

Just outside the shop there lived this super cute chair, that we just had to use as a prop.  This is the perfect segueway into one of my most memorable wedding day moments ever.  Andrea decided that I liked the chair so much that she bought it (and it’s mate) as gifts to Andy and me…right then and there! There was no talking her out of it!  It was truly surprising and touching!!

Andrea + Brad’s cake was THE CUTEST!! She made these cake toppers from polymer clay and they were truly adorable.

Time to party!!

The chairs I mentioned earlier were delivered to the Middlebury Inn, which completely cracked us up!!  Thanks for all the fun Andrea + Brad!  We LOVE our chairs and think of you every day when we see them in our sitting room. xo
