A Wedding at Patriot Hills

Stephanie and Brian are definitely our kind of couple!! We’ve enjoyed them for months, ever since their engagement session with us in the autumn of 2005. The wedding day was bright and sunny, and their party of some 19 others contributed toward a lively and completely enjoyable day. What a fantastic group, each and every one! We were so happy for the way everything went for these two.

Warm sunlight poured in through the stained glass windows of the church as they said their vows to one another. After being pronounced as man and wife, we all drove to the grounds of a local mansion for some fun wedding party photos. Once those were done, we got some “alone time” with Stephanie and Brian. The gorgeous setting sun provided the soft lighting that worked so beautifully for their romantic mood. We couldn’t have asked for better.

The reception was held at Patriot Hills in Stony Point, NY. What an excellent and friendly staff they have there. We’ve always enjoyed the food and helpful service there and knew they would take good care of our couple (Steph & Brian, thank you for the incredible meal. You made us feel like honored guests at your party!). Music was provided by DJ Dalen, and the sounds of soulful jazz played in the background until it was time for everyone to get onto the dance floor. Video services were expertly handled by Jennifer Cassaro of Masterpiece Video Productions.

As the evening drew to a close, Stephanie and Brian pulled us aside for a private and romantic photo session to close the evening. What an awesome time we had! They mentioned how they were able to forget any nervousness about being in front of a camera, and simply enjoyed themselves. We know they’re going to love the results that came out of these small pockets of time they created through the day. Thanks so much, guys, for allowing us to be a part of it all. We love you both, and appreciated your call from the airport!! It meant a lot to us. 🙂

Their online gallery of photos will be released following their return from their honeymoon. So in about a week or so, look for them in the “Client Proofs” area of our main website. Until then, enjoy the photo included in this blog entry for a taste of just how much fun we had with this awesome couple! Feel free to click it for a larger version.
