Iris & Nick Engagement Photos

Posted in Engagements

Iris & Nick came to us with a sense of complete trust and openness with regard to their photographic experience. It’s a good thing, too, because we were really excited to see them for their session, and we wanted them to relish not only how fantastic they both looked but also just how much fun a session like this would be. Iris chose a fabulous, stylish new dress with eye-catching sandals. Nick provided a strong but warm complement to her and was there for Iris throughout the entire session. Everything was just the way it should be. Enjoy the results!

Ada & Jim’s Wedding at Benmarl Winery

Posted in Weddings

Ada & James are a truly special pair. We instantly fell in love with this lovely couple from Day #1 of our first getting together with them. But how could you not? Ada is such a cool person to be around, and she was drop-dead gorgeous, marvelously statuesque in her wedding gown; and Jim has such an engaging, friendly way about him that you can’t help but want to hang with him for the day. They chose to see one another before their ceremony, producing some of our personal favorite photos from the day. Jim was clearly amazed by how stunning Ada looked! With the joy of their friends and family surrounding them, the bright summer day was positively filled with warm hugs and tears of joy. The beautiful setting of the vineyards and grand view of the Hudson Valley put everyone into a romantic party mood. Simply put, the day could not have been more perfect for such a wonderful couple. Ada & Jimmy, thank you so much for letting us be a part of your day!

Michelle’s Rave Review

Posted in Raves

It gives us such a thrill when beautiful couples like Michelle & Dan choose us as an integral part of their wedding day. To our great delight, they enjoyed their photo experience just as much as we did! Michelle kindly shared this rave review about her experience with Ulysses Photography:

I first met Ulysses & Jenni at a bridal show before I was engaged. I was struck at how they wanted to know about me and never once asked, Are you looking for a photographer? After getting engaged and going to a few more bridal shows and gathering lots of information on vendors I just knew they had to be our photographers. They were the only photographers I met with. My fiance & I felt so comfortable with them and we got such a great vibe from them, I had every confidence that I would be happy with them and their work. Our engagement photos were beautiful, finally I had some good photos of my fiance & I!! I was so excited to see them on my wedding day, I ran outside in my robe when I saw them walking down the street!! Words can not describe the beauty of their pictures and the level of professionalism and friendliness they exude. You don’t even realize they are taking your picture and yet they catch all the important moments and the results are amazing. Everyone was blown away by our photos. My husband and I looked like models on our wedding day and I have my make-up artist, Ulysses and Jenni to thank for that!!

Summer Wedding in Albany, NY

Posted in Weddings

Alison & Brian’s wedding day was full of fun, flair, and elegant fashion. It felt as if the day really began right after putting on her dress, when Alison heard the ice cream truck driving through the neighborhood. She and her girls simply HAD to have an ice cream treat! After enjoying a delicious bar, it was off to the Shaker Heritage Site for a beautiful wedding day Reveal, when Brian got to see his exquisite bride. Alison’s vivid bouquet was wonderfully complimented by Brian’s fashionable navy suit, accessorized with a broad-striped tie of hot pink & navy. Together, they made an exciting couple to photograph while we enjoyed walking around the beautifully rustic barns and structures. The day flew by all too quickly, but we’re so happy to have been able to enjoy it with them and their incredible families.

Enjoy these preview photos. The full gallery will be available soon in the “Boutique” area of our main website. We’d love to hear from you, so please comment below! And feel free to click the button below to “Recommend” us to your friends!

Ulysses - Obsess and rave away, Jessica! We’ve recently concluded some clinical studies, and it seems the only cure or coping mechanism to relieve the manic symptoms is to shout about us to others as frequently as possible. and to point them to this blog and to our website portfolio. LOL!!! Big hugs, Jessica! Thank you!!! 08.10.10 – 9:03am

Jessica - It’s true, I’m slightly obsessed with your work. I’m sure there is a 12-step program available somewhere . . .

Neglected to mention that I agree with Jessica @ 1:14 PM – that bridal portrait is simply stunning. My prediction – the groom will be keeping a copy on his nightstand!

(BTW, I just had to remind myself to change my “default” email address when I submit comments!)08.10.10 – 8:58am

Ulysses - Thank you, Johanna! Coming from Alison’s sister, it really means a lot. I have to be completely open. If you show me a barn, just about ANY barn, I am soooo there! LOL! I mentioned to your mom that after about 2 seconds of consideration of the options, I decided we HAD to go to this place for the entire session. So glad everyone else enjoyed it, too. Hope to talk to you soon! Enjoy the full gallery, and thanks again! 08.09.10 – 9:18am

Johanna - The pics are beautiful!! Love the backdrop too! Thank you both so much.08.09.10 – 9:05am

Ulysses - Jessica (the second Jessica ), you’ve always been one of our most enthusiastic fans, and we really appreciate it so much. Thank you! We put our hearts into the day, so we genuinely enjoyed the time we got to spend with this great-looking couple. It was definitely a memorable and emotive day. 08.05.10 – 5:54pm

Jessica - Love the hair, love the dress, LOVE the photos . . . you two are so ridiculously talented!08.03.10 – 4:11pm

Ulysses - Thank you, Jessica! We had a great time photographing them. I probably could have spent the entire day there. 08.03.10 – 1:42pm

jessica - That black and white portrait of the bride is gorgeous!08.03.10 – 1:14pm

Kind Words From Laura & Chris

Posted in Raves

Laura & Chris sent an incredibly sweet note immediately after returning home from their honeymoon. Kind words like these are reminders of why we’re so thankful to have such appreciative clients like this, who excite us about doing our very best for them.

Hi Jenni

Do you ever get tired of hearing how wonderful you are?? If so, I apologize in advance for fluffing your ego even more with this email….

I no longer have enough fingers or toes left to count the number of people who have called, emailed, texted, or literally stopped me face to face to tell me how amazing the wedding was and how absolutely stunning our photos are. People have gone so far as to say that they are the most incredible images they have ever seen. To each and everyone of these friends and family, I have done nothing but smile, cry and praise your names. Your work has filled our hearts with so much joy and Chris & I are honored to be able to carry these amazing photographs, and the memories they evoke, with us for the rest of our lives.

We have been perusing and discussing the images nonstop and will likely be calling upon your expertise to help us create the best storybook possible. We have so much confidence in you both and your work has done nothing but illustrate to us that you are our best resource.

A whole hearted thank you once again!

Laura

A Summer Wedding at Catlin Gardens

Posted in Engagements

The perfection of Amber & Matthew’s wedding day was threatened by a NY heat wave and thunderstorms, but neither of these could lessen their infectious energy, emotion, and excitement over saying their marriage vows before all their family and friends. Amber was savoring each and every moment of their whirlwind day with her bridesmaids. We were delighted by her hot pink shoes and her earrings of vivid pink crystals. Meanwhile, Matt and his guys were getting themselves ready in a nearby room, with Matt helping each of his buddies put together the finishing touches on their tuxes before receiving several warm embraces from overjoyed family members. Amber & Matt, your devotion to one another and to your families is such a strength to you both, and we are incredibly thankful to have been a part of your day.

Baby Aliyah Is Here!

Posted in Babies & children

One our happiest experiences is to be one of the first faces a newborn baby gets to know, often within its first week of life. Meeting little Aliyah was really special for us because we’ve also known and gotten to photograph her big sister since before Day #1. What an awesome privilege to be a part of Jasmine & Josh’s family since their children’s earliest days! Aliyah was calm and relaxed during her photos session and definitely loved to interact even at this early age. We can’t wait to watch her grow in the days to come!

A Wedding at Patriot Hills

Posted in Weddings

Laura & Chris have so much love to give one another, and those strong feelings of devotion are what gave the entire day its emotive signature. We had a wonderful time photographing this stunning bride and her attentive groom because they asked for beautifully different locations for shooting, and they were brave enough to take a few chances. They made a strong effort to carve out time during the busy day to ensure they had a relaxed photo session together. But more than anything, seeing how close they were with one another, and with their friends and family, ensured that we had ample opportunity to show off those feelings in photos. Laura & Chris, thanks so much for your willingness to climb mountains and “risk arrest” for the sake of great photos!

Enjoy this preview. The full gallery will be available soon in the “Boutique” area of our main website. We’d love to hear your thoughts – please leave your comments below, and be sure to “Recommend” us to your friends!

Ulysses - Laura!!!!!! It’s so exciting to hear from you two! It’s amazing to see you posting all the way from Cancun! Believe me, I wish we were down there with you. Couldn’t you have fit two more people into your luggage somehow? LOL! All the happiness, joy, and girlie squeals are a delight to our hearts. Thank you so much for the chance to give you the sort of unique and emotive photos you deserved on your incredible whirlwind of a day. There are so many great memories from this one for us as well. The gallery is already online for you and your family and friends to enjoy! Have a look as soon as you can! And if you need any help at all, do not hesitate to write. Hugs for you both! And remember… lots of sunscreen and aloe, and don’t forget to keep hydrated. 07.25.10 – 1:13pm

Laura - SO…we are all the way in Cancun, and I was starting to annoy Chris asking about our wedding photos and when I could see them. Luckily, we found the resort “business center” and discovered we had been blogged! I don’t even know how to express the smiles that came across these two (rather sunburned) faces!! Let’s just say there might have also been a few girly screams (Chris denies this though). If this is only a taste of what’s to come, we could not be happier!! We can’t wait to check out the entire set of proofs when we are stateside. THANK YOU so much again for capturing the beauty and emotion of our day as exquisitely as you did. Lots of hugs!!07.23.10 – 10:23pm

Ulysses - So glad that it was an ideal day for these two!07.21.10 – 9:36am

Joan Perez - Absolutely beautiful & enchanting pictures of a stunning bride & handsome groom. It was a wonderful wedding – thank you for sharing!!!07.21.10 – 9:01am

A Wedding at The Tides Estate

Posted in Weddings

We first met Christine 5 years ago, when she was the Maid of Honor at Jennifer & Jason’s wedding. We had so much fun at that wedding, Christine decided then and there that we were going to be her wedding photographers someday. We were thrilled when she called us to tell us she finally had a date, and was not looking at any other photographers because her mind was already made up. We knew the artist in Christine was going to create many beautiful details for her wedding (right down to handmade paper for their personalized vows). This was truly going to be a wedding to remember. Dom even choreographed their first dance!

Christine and Dom, thank you for your complete trust in us, and for being so kind and wonderful to work with.

Enjoy this preview. The full gallery will be available in the “Boutique” area of our main website as soon as Christine & Dom return from Hawaii. We’d love to hear from you, so please comment below! And feel free to click the button to “Recommend” us to your friends!

Meet Melissa & Michael’s Family!

Posted in Portraits

We first met Melissa & Michael at Joette & Patrick’s wedding, and we could tell even then just how much love they have for one another, as well as for their two adorable little girls. When Melissa asked if we could take some relaxed lifestyle portraits of their beautiful family, we jumped at the opportunity to do so. In the gorgeous open setting of a wonderful horse farm, they and their girls were able to show us what a fun-loving, happy family they are. The girls looked forward even more to changing into their ballerina tutus. Too cute! We had a great time on this family outing.

A Wedding at Round Hill

Posted in Weddings

Gina & Herman have been the sweetest couple to photograph. From Day One they put complete trust in us to show off not only what beautiful people they are, but also to artistically capture their feelings for one another. We had a wonderful time doing that for them on their wedding day. The tears of joy began early in the day when Gina’s parents saw her dressed as a bride. She was simply gorgeous. Herman’s laid-back confidence made him just as much a pleasure to be with, too. Although he was even more excited than anyone else while waiting for Gina to arrive, his cool black & white kicks clearly told everyone that he was going to be himself and enjoy his day as much as possible. And everyone certainly did! It was a beautiful day filled with lots of love all around.

Enjoy this preview. The full gallery will be available soon in the “Boutique” area of our main website. We’d love to hear your thoughts – please leave your comments below!

A Wedding at Saratoga National Golf Club

Posted in Weddings

We’ve known Allison & Dan for many years now, having photographed the wedding of Allison’s sister Jacquelyn, as well as the wedding of Allison’s close college friend Amy and Dan’s brother Doug (the very last image in the preview above is us with each of these awesome brides!). So this one had even more special meaning for us than usual, as it meant seeing so many beloved people once again. We’ve always loved everything about taking photos with this sweetest of couples, and this day was no different as they gave us access to the entire day’s activity as well as their feelings for one another. Their destination wedding in Saratoga Springs, NY, was a gala event where Allison’s pampering began at a comfortable bed & breakfast that took us back to another era in time, continued through an emotional ceremony, and ended with their families and closest friends gathered for a fun-filled reception of food, music, and dancing at the grand Saratoga National. It was an amazing experience for everyone.

Enjoy this preview of photos. The full gallery will be available soon in the “Boutique” area of our main website. Please recommend this entry to your friends, and feel free to leave your comments below – we’d love to hear from you!

Ulysses - Welcome back home, Allison! You know how much we adore you guys. While the day did indeed FLY BY, it felt as if we were with family again. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your day with you and your families. You gave us so many great opportunities for amazing photos! It really was a perfect weekend for all your guests, too; I can’t tell you how many positive comments we heard from everyone around us. If you need any help with photo choices at all, do not hesitate to write and ask for assistance! We’d love for your wedding album and wall art to be just as incredible as were your engagement photos and guest book. It was such a great experience being with you again. Hugs & affection to you both! – U & J07.21.10 – 9:49am

Allison - Ulysses and Jenni, Thank you, thank you, thank you. Dan and I absolutely love the all your magnificent work! You made our wedding day out of town feel like we were right at home because we were with the both of you. The next steps will be quite difficult…choosing the photographs for the album!07.21.10 – 8:39am

Roger - I thought Jacquelyn and Tom’s wedding was spectacular and something that couldn’t be duplicated. Allison and Dan didn’t disappoint. Two days of fantastic golf followed by a beautiful wedding and reception was incredible. Can you imagine what Chuck and Barb have up their sleeves for Amanda. Wow!07.20.10 – 12:34am

Ulysses - You know… truth be told, we’re seriously considering bringing that to our team as soon as we can ensure we have enough cap room for him. His talents are going to bring us all the way to the championship! Oh wait… I’m mixing careers there. LOL! Thanks so much, Doug! I can’t even tell you how great it was to see you and Amy again. And CONGRATS on the second baby soon to arrive! You both look so happy. Oh… BTW, best speech EVER! 07.14.10 – 12:14pm

Doug - The first 9 are pretty good…. but that last photo is really something. The guy who took that one is a true artist.07.14.10 – 12:08pm

Ulysses - Jacquelyn, one of our most eagerly anticipated joys was to be able to see you and Tom again. You looked absolutely amazing, too (no surprise there). I’m sorry we didn’t get to talk quite as much as we would have liked, but I’m glad we got to catch up at least a little. There was this little destination wedding going on, and there were LOTS of family to photograph. LOL!! So I know you understand. But I sincerely hope we get together again in the near future. We’ll be sure to keep in touch. All the best to you both! 07.13.10 – 12:46am

Jacquelyn - Thanks for sharing the 10 beautiful pictures, love them all! So good to see you both at the wedding!07.11.10 – 9:02pm

Ulysses - Thanks so much, Barbara! We had an unbelievably great time with Allison & Dan, and the entire family. It all went by much too quickly. Rest assured, there are plenty more coming. This was just a tiny sampler. All our best to you all. 07.08.10 – 10:52pm

barbara - Wow! The pictures are beautiful. Can’t wait to see more.07.08.10 – 9:21pm

Andrea & Justin Engagement Photos

Posted in Engagements

Even though it was our first time meeting Andrea & Justin face-to-face, we felt as though we’d known them for quite a while. They love taking walks around the town of Princeton, NJ, so it was an ideal place to join them for their engagement photo session. Keeping them close and connected in the middle of Princeton University’s beautiful camps was a true joy, and we loved how Andrea’s elegance and their mutual warmth shone through in the photos. Their wedding day at The Venetian is going to be fabulous!

A Wedding at The Grandview

Stephanie & George’s wedding was the first of several July weddings for us, and what a great way to start the month! Stephanie was stunning from head to toe, beautifully statuesque in her Maggie Sottero gown, and we were able to take advantage of it with some unique bridal photos. With the gorgeous Hudson River as their backdrop, their ceremony was followed by a loving first dance and an even more emotional set of parent dances. We loved seeing that the overjoyed couple truly had fun with one another and danced their perfect night away with their friends.

Enjoy the preview of photos above. The complete gallery will be available soon in the “Boutique” area of our main website. We love hearing from each of you, so please leave your comments below and be sure to let Stephanie & George know you “Like” their photos!

Erin & George’s Engagement Photos!

Posted in Engagements

When we first met Erin & George, we were ALL so excited about the prospects of working together that our first day of shooting couldn’t come soon enough! This beautifully upbeat couple truly put their hearts and devotion to one another into their session. Erin even went shopping in NYC and came away with an amazing new outfit chosen just for our shoot. Awesome! We love the way they allowed us to play with the evening’s dramatic light. Best of all, we had a great time simply getting to know them even better. And now it’s their wedding day at the Tides Estate that can’t come soon enough. Can’t wait to do this again with them!

Jean & Michael’s Engagement Photos

Posted in Engagements

We’ve known Jean for a long time now, as she was one of the friendliest of people we’d ever met at one of our favorite local venues. We used to talk even then about what her own wedding would someday be like. So what an exciting privilege it was when she actually called to ask us to be her wedding photographers! We couldn’t be more thrilled for Jean & Michael. They’d first met at a local Hannaford grocery store, so Jean called the same store to ask if we could have a little photographic fun there. They not only said “yes”, but even brought in a little extra help to clean up and restock the fruit & veggie bins just for our photo shoot.

Thanks so much to Hannaford for letting us have fun there with this fantastic couple. It gave an entirely new meaning to shopping for the best produce! We can’t wait for Jean & Michael’s beautiful wedding day.
