Take one part Julie + one part Greg, throw in two shots of rock star, add a dash of romance, garnished with a whole lot of fun, then stir it in a Brooklyn shaker, and you get the most incredibly delicious drink — I mean engagement session — you’d ever ask for! Julie really does sing in a rock band, and Greg totally looks like he could, too! After joining this fun-loving couple near a little chocolate shop in DUMBO Brooklyn, we wound our way towards the magnificent blue Manhattan Bridge. The fun began immediately as they played and laughed together on the lawn, giving us total freedom to show off their utter uniqueness and completely cool vibe. We were probably the loudest little group in the park (there were at least two other groups taking photos, but they looked bored). Whether climbing fences, nearly taking a dip in the East River, enjoying an embrace while seated on a stoop, playing a guitar, or having a bit of fun boxing together — yes, I said boxing — these two are completely devoted to making one another happy. We’re even more eager to join them for their summer 2011 wedding at Onteora Mountain House.

More with Julie & Greg.

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!

• More fun with Ada & Jim

We’re busy developing the photos from Ada & Jim’s outstandingly beautiful wedding. They’ll be ready soon, but until then we wanted to share at least one gorgeous teaser from the day. Keep your browsers pointed here, as there will be much more to come.

From the time we first met with Nicole & Tom, we knew we wanted to be their photographers. The reason why is easily seen in their photos. We love seeing their sometimes-quirky-but-always-cool approach to one another and to life. Whether sharing a date at an arcade or a romantic walk through a field of wild grass, they gave us insight into what a special couple they are. Photographing their wedding at the fabulous Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers is one of our most eagerly anticipated autumn events.

I can’t even describe how excited I was when my beautiful hair stylist, Ada, told me she was engaged! But when Ada and Jim chose us as her photographers, that put my excitement over the top.  It only got better when we got together for their engagement session. Meeting Ada’s adorable daughter, Katie, was also a a privilege.  We know their wedding at Benmarl Winery this summer is going to be an event to remember.

You know it’s going to be a unique and singularly fun day when the groom is busy sharing his iPhone photos and tweeting about his wedding day experience.

Lara & Tom’s day was filled with colorful humor and emotional connectivity, just as we knew it would be. This very hip couple invited us to photograph their wedding day with a complete sense of trust in us and gave us ready access to their lives. We couldn’t have asked for more than that. Lara’s flowing designer gown and blue shoes were just perfect, setting a beautiful tone for the entire day.

Following a meaningful ceremony, the entire group of family and wedding party assembled at Monmouth University (NJ) for a fun photo session. Amazingly, although the weather was forecasted for 90% chance of thunderstorms, it didn’t at all dampen their spirits or their display of affection for one another. In fact, the rain came in rather handy for some of our photos (brides, take it from us… a little rain on your wedding day can lead to incredible photos). We cherished our private time with Lara & Tom in this grand location, and they did a fantastic job together. And then it was off to their evening reception on the Jersey Shore for great food and an excellent party!
