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!

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!

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.

We were really happy to meet up with Sora & Alexander for their engagement photos. During the month of June, there’s never any accounting for what the weather might do. But this cute couple took a chance and braved the forecast of impending thunderstorms. And what do you know!! The weather actually held up, while accommodating us with some dramatic changes between clouds and sunshine throughout their fun shoot. We’re each looking even more forward to their wedding day at the Inn at Fox Hollow.

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.

We had an exciting time with Melissa & Alex for their engagement photo session! They were perfect partners, bringing out the best in one another for the photos. We loved not only the couple themselves, but also the way they let us play extensively with the dramatic light and shadows the day provided. Melissa pulls off casual glam like nobody’s business, and Alex… well, what a fantastic leading man he was!  Alex and I had a great time talking about Thomas Dean designer shirts… good man!! We’re so happy they’re enjoying their photos in so many artistic ways throughout their home. We really look forward to their summer wedding at The Garrison. Feel free to leave a comment below and let them know that you “Like” their photos as much as we do!

We had a great time with Erika & Mick during their photo session! Near their home is a large park where they enjoy spending time together. This served as the perfect backdrop for their engagement photos.  Since they are getting married this autumn at the Onteora Mountain House, with it’s beautiful rustic setting, they wanted their engagement photos to be unique by featuring their urban hometown and the beautiful NYC skyline. Enjoy!

Janine & Jarret traveled all the way down from Boston for their engagement session, and we couldn’t be happier than to have joined them for such a fun session! We’d met Janine several months earlier, and even though it was our first time meeting Jarret, we each quickly hit it off and fell into a great rhythm with one another. This fabulous couple is getting married in September at the fantastic Mamaroneck Beach & Yacht Club. We can’t wait to join them.

I can’t even describe how excited I was when my beautiful hair stylist, Ada, told me she was engaged! But when Ada & 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.

Dear Jenni and Ulysses,

Thought we would send you a note to let you two know how much we appreciate you coming down here to visit with us. You made us feel so comfortable, and most important, we really had a lot of fun! Looking forward to seeing you at the viewing.

Michael and Erika

We’re definitely anxious to see these two again for their big photo Reveal in our home studio, where they’ll enjoy their first look at the photos and experience some fun and inspiring ways to make use of them!

We really enjoy when we can go back with a couple to the very spot where they got engaged, which is exactly what we did with Amber & Matt. A meaningful location + a romantic couple + gorgeous blue skies and a warm setting Sun for amazing light were the perfect combination for this photo session. We can’t wait for their upcoming wedding at the beautiful Catlin Gardens this summer!

Amanda & Tony brought a lot of fun and energy to their engagement session. One of their favorite things to do is spend time at a beautiful nearby lake, so it was the perfect place to meet them for the fun and romance of their outstanding engagement photo session. We’re now looking forward to their autumn wedding at Catlin Gardens even more!

This fun couple made the 5-hour drive all the way down from Buffalo for their engagement session, which we did right in the same town where James proposed to Angela. When we asked about their favorite thing in their new hometown, they said, “Being together.” It’s that same togetherness that gave life to their photos. Angela & James: Thank you for being willing to climb rocks, navigate wet fields (even though Angela was wearing new wedges), and take on any pose with such style. It was so worth it! We’re going to have a spectacular time together at Round Hill this winter!

We first met Allison & Dan several years ago when we photographed Dan’s brother’s wedding.  We then met up again last year when we photographed Allison’s sister’s wedding.  So you can imagine how excited we were when they called us up to photograph their own!  We can’t wait for their wedding day this July at Saratoga National Golf Club in Saratoga Springs. It’s going to feel like a big family reunion for us.

Even though the day of their engagement session was freezing cold, we found some relief in a very cool indoor location and were able to create some amazing art pieces for them.

Their spring wedding at Abigail Kirsch at Tappan Hill is going to be a fabulous affair, and we can’t wait to join them.

There’s no doubt about it. Allie absolutely LOVES photography. And we absolutely love photographing with Allie & Traver. They both put a lot of thought into the look and mood they wanted for their photo session, and she asked that we come out to a beautiful horse farm that had wide-open spaces and plenty of variety in the scenery to showcase their personalities and genuine enthusiasm about their relationship. They also brought along their friendly nine-year-old German Shepherd, Ozzie, for a portion of the session. He turned out to be a big teddy bear. It was a perfect way to spend the late autumn season.

We had such a blast with this down-to-earth couple, and our own excitement about their upcoming wedding at the Pearl River Hilton is growing even more, especially after their fabulous photo shoot.

We first met Gina at a local bridal event, and we immediately felt connected to her. Only later did we realize that we have a few friends in common. When she introduced us to her fiancé, Herman, we just knew we wanted to photograph their wedding. We were very excited when they chose us on the spot!

Our engagement photo session with them was nothing less than delightful. Seeing how willing they were to help us create gorgeous photos with just the perfect mood for them made us look for unique opportunities to show them off at their best.  A perfect day with a perfect couple – you can’t ask for more than that!

We’re now even more eager to join them for their wedding at Round Hill House in the summer of 2010.

Just a few short minutes after meeting Helena & David, we knew we wanted to be their photographers. We were drawn not only to their gentle-but-fun personalities, but also to the affectionate way they naturally treat one another. What better ingredients could you need for starting a fulfilling life together? And those same qualities were clearly in evidence in their photos.

They came all the way up from their home in the D.C. area to finalize some of their wedding arrangements and to spend a little time with us for their engagement photos. We had a fabulous time getting to know them even better, and they did a remarkable job as our “models” for the day. Their wedding at the beautiful View on the Hudson is going to be a truly special day for them and for us.

Lovisa & Chris are a couple with lots of love for life and for one another in their hearts. When Lovisa called us about her wedding photography, she knew exactly what she wanted; we were so glad that we turned out to be a part of their plans. We were certainly drawn to them immediately, and their engagement photo session turned out to be as naturally fun as we had hoped. This naturally affectionate couple didn’t need any coaxing at all to allow their feelings for one another to show in front of the camera. Most of all, we enjoyed getting to know them better during their “date day” while we happily worked at producing great photos for them.

We know their wedding day at the Full Moon Resort is going to be even more amazing, and we can’t wait to join them in a couple weeks.

When we met Stephanie & George for the first time at our studio, we were immediately taken with their fabulous chemistry. It’s  clear they not only have a great friendship, but they also have a genuine magnetism drawing them together. We wanted to make sure their engagement photos showed those same qualities of closeness and love.

Stephanie & George arrived full of excitement for their photo session, and they were each dressed to impress. As the saying goes, every girl needs a little black dress, and Stephanie’s was just perfect for her.  To rock the session with different looks, she brought along no less than two fashionable pairs of shoes (and you know how we love great shoes!). Sometimes the shoot was about showing their mutual energy, and other times… other times it was simply about the shoes. These two were up for anything, so getting them to have a carefree time even in the presence of cameras was no problem at all. We can’t wait to show them the amazing results. And we’re looking that much more forward to their summer 2010 wedding at The Grandview.
