Samita and Al! I had such a fun time shooting their wedding! There were so many wonderful details and blending of traditions. Samita got ready at the Ritz Carlton Battery Park where her Mom, sister, family, and friends all got ready amidst smiles and laughter. Samita wore a gorgeous dress, rocked some serious Dior heels, and just looked flawless from head to toe.
The ceremony and reception took place at Battery Gardens Restaurant and the adorable cupcakes were from Amy Atlas.
I had the most incredible time photographing Sarah and Chris’ wedding. Needless to say, I fell in LOVE with Vermont. But really, who doesn’t?! I got to spend some fun time with the best man at OUR wedding because our good friend Adam, is the bride’s brother! Needless to say, Sarah is the best, and Chris was just as awesome. I had a great weekend soaking up the landscape, getting to know the families, and taking lots of pretty pictures! I have a lot of tales to tell from this lovely wedding, so here we go!
Here is our lovely bride.
And her handsome groom.
After the rehearsal, and before the rehearsal dinner, we did a mini engagement session in the park of downtown Rochester, VT!
It was rainy pretty much on and off all weekend, but I always like to point out that photos in the rain can be just as awesome as the sun!
The rehearsal dinner was held at the sweetest little restaurant. I heard from Adam’s mom that the house where the restaurant now resides use to be the town doctors office. It had tons of charm!
After the rehearsal dinner, the family invited all the guests back to their little camp in the woods for strawberry shortcake and fireworks. On the way there, Kyle and I saw this HUGE rainbow, so we pulled over and snapped a few quick photos. Like I said, Vermont is a dream.
I love the Fourth of July weekend! Flags and fireworks!
And now it’s wedding day!
What can I say about Christina and Mike’s wedding? Just WOW. I loved the fact that Christina’s family lives in my hometown, Mike’s family lives in the town over, they got married at St. Agnes Cathedral, a stunning local church, and I got to top off my night down at the Tribeca Rooftop. The weather was so very threatening for days leading up to the wedding. That morning we woke to overcast, grey, rainy skies. But as Mike and Christina emerged from the church as husband and wife, the clouds dissipated and the sun came out to play the rest of the day.
Christina wore a breathtaking Rivini gown, pretty “something blue” shoes, and the flowers were by Westchester Floral.
Rachel and Andrew had a classic, fun, and all around awesome wedding day. The celebration took place at the Fresh Meadow Country Club, flowers were done by Andrew Pascoe in Oyster Bay, and the place took on, as one of Rachel’s bridesmaids exclaimed, a magical wedding forest feel.
P.S. First wedding with my new D700! Oh, Nikon, I love you folks.
