This romantic Catskills getaway took place in January at Foxfire Mountain House. A quick trip from NYC this is the weekend getaway you have been looking for. Or perhaps the one your partner has been hoping you would plan.

Mary Dougherty photographed this intimate portrait session, styled by Lacy Geary, as a branding shoot. It was created for the property and like all branding work we do, focuses on a story. This story centers around escape and slowing down. Quiet mornings, hot tea, warm fires and of course being together are at the center of the shoot. Therefore, you will find everything a getaway, honeymoon, or proposal weekend should include.

One of my favorite things about any getaway is enjoying the interior design of a property. I love seeing how a space makes me feel. The impressive stone fireplace at Foxfire is similar to the one in my own home, and I love the mix of textures to give the room warmth.

Special thanks to the team that put this shoot together for the workshop hosted by Jake Anderson. Lacy Geary, Kelly Lenard and of course Foxfire Mountain House made the getaway so fun to be a part of.

A classic Cape Cod wedding never goes out of style, especially at the Kittansett Club.

A Chautauqua wedding is stunning no matter the size. Karen and Walker pivoted to host the most amazing micro wedding at this historic American retreat.
