Check out their beautiful highlights:
Michelle and Mike were recommended to us by Mike’s Sister, and his cousin, whose weddings we filmed previously. They got 2 our Artistic Package, and added a 2nd photographer to the Silver package, as they weren’t interested in an album. German and I started with Michelle and the girls at the Wayne NJ Residence Inn. Michelle was quickly given the Best Wife Award, which she gladly excepted, haha. Walking in was interesting cause she reminded me of the flying nun with this paper on on either side of her hair, I guess to protect it from the airbrushing. German and I quickly got to work getting some shots of everyone and focusing on details like the dress, shoes, flowers, rings and invitation, then we got some fun shots of her and the girls in their robes, and some gorgeous shots of Michelle getting dressed and by herself.
Steven and Pete started with the guys at Michelle and Mike’s home. A much quicker process. Uniquely one of Mike’s groomsmen was a woman, a good friend of his, so that was cool. She was just one of the guys though when they were doing shots at their built in bar. The guys got some great shots of them outside. I love the one of them walking lined up, very Reservoir Dogs 😉
We all met up at the St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Pompton Lakes for a great ceremony. She got a little emotional during the vows, and he was all smiles. Afterwards we captured some family shots, then it was off to the Tides Estate in North Haledon NJ, for some bridal party shots and more. They had the lower room, so when another bride appeared, who I guess took preference, we had to finish up on the left side of the grounds. I swear I never knew about that section and have been there SO many times. I guess we just usually shoot in the main area.
Cocktail hour was delicious as usual at the Tides, and then the party started with some great first dances. I love the shot of her with her with her dad. Such a beautiful moment. I always wonder what’s going through their heads. Is he picturing her as little girl? Is she thinking about all those years he’s been raising her? It’s a lifetime of love in a few moments.
The rest of the night was just party party party. We had a great time with everyone, and it was great to see Nina (his cousin) and Andrew, now with their baby, and Angela (his sister) and Eric with there kids again. I always love the reunions when we get referred!
Here’s a shot of me and the crew with Michelle and Mike. Thanks to the guest who used German’s camera to get the shot 🙂
