Summer Fling /  by Zack Wussow

Back in June, I went out to Waterbury for another great Mattatuck Museum event, this time at the beautiful campus of a local school. (The museum is currently undergoing a renovation project that is going to be amazing!)

Called the “Summer Fling”, it was English garden party-themed, with charity games, a silent auction, and an amazing dinner.

It was a beautiful night, with perfect weather, lots of good times, and a lot of money was raised for a great cause.

I can’t wait to see the museum when it reopens!

The Night Before in Mystic /  by Zack Wussow

I joined Colleen and Mandeep on a balmy but beautiful night at Mystic Seaport for their rehearsal dinner. 

I never realized that Mystic hosted private events, but between this and my recent wedding at Old Sturbridge Village, I'm starting to think that exploring living-history museums at night is one of the best perks of my job. (Getting married in Colonial Williamsburg? E-mail me!)

The only downside is, I was so busy taking photos I forgot to grab one of the tasty-looking lobsters for dinner...

Even so, it was a beautiful night, and Colleen and Mandeep's family and friends were so gracious and friendly. Even though I was leaving that night to go on a vacation to Cape Cod, I really wished that I could stick around to see the happy couple on their wedding day.

Congratulations Colleen and Mandeep! 

Hey, Those Look Familiar! /  by Zack Wussow

March is ending in it's typical yearly lull. No complaints, it gave my fiance and I a chance to get out of town for a few days.

We visited some friends, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and we spent a day at the Museum of Natural History.

April is shaping up to be busy, though! Mostly events for UConn plus a Bar Mitzvah and possibly a last-minute trip.

It was while preparing for one of the UConn events that I had a strange feeling of deja vu. The photos on the event page seemed familiar... because they're mine from last year's event! Always a pleasure to see my work getting used.
