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!

Kind Words From Melissa & Mark

View Photographer Profile

Melissa & Mark have thrilled us from Day #1 with their energy and style. We were so happy to receive a kind note from them and wanted to share it here:

Jenni & Ulysses,

Where do we start to thank our favorite vendors? Your reputation is stellar, and it is very well-deserved. We could not have been more happy with you and your brilliant work. You were able to capture the most beautiful moments in the most beautiful way, and we are so appreciative. You are both  professionally and personal, and you felt more like guests than vendors.

We will meet again – my friends love you, and I’ll be seeing you at their weddings! Or who knows, maybe a baby session?…

With sincerest thanks,
Melissa  & Mark

A Wedding at The Grandview

View Photographer Profile

We get so excited when a couple not only wants to turn us loose for some creative photo opportunities, but also prepares themselves well with plenty of fun details and ideas, as well as sets aside TIME to actually make those things happen. This sort of preparation made Katie & Don’s day an absolute delight to photograph. Katie’s fur stole, her birdcage veil, and their choice of several great shooting locations made for a wonderful photographic adventure, and they were clearly just as thrilled about it as we were. Even the rain and wind held up for us, so we were able to enjoy the spectacular autumn view with them.

Another highlight of the day was their fabulously choreographed first dance. You could see on their faces just how much they were enjoying the routine. The standing ovation from their fans let them know how much everyone else enjoyed it, too. Katie & Don, thank you so much for choosing us, and for letting us have such a fun day with you!

We can’t wait to share all the photos! Their entire wedding photo gallery will be available shortly in the “Client Proofs” area of our main website.  Please click the “Comments” link at the top of this entry to leave your thoughts!

A Wedding at The Grandview in Poughkeepsie

View Photographer Profile

Jennifer & Jason’s wedding day was such a blast for everyone who had a share in it. Jennifer looked stunning even before her gown was put on, and her eyes lit up with excitement at the prospect of seeing Jason just a few moments after our arrival. In a break from tradition, they saw one another in a private Reveal session, so they could enjoy a warm embrace and talk together about their thrilling day to come. It was a just beautiful seeing their emotive reaction to one another.

The rest of the day was just as enjoyable for everyone. There were plenty of friends and family gathered at The Grandview for the indoor ceremony in the main ballroom area, followed by a fabulous party hosted by one of our very favorite DJs. It was a wonderful day (and night) to remember. Jen & Jason, we couldn’t have been happier than to be there with you and your families. Thanks so much for allowing us to be a part of the day, and for taking such good care of us with a tasty meal.

The full gallery will be available soon in the “Client Proofs” area of our main website. If you’d like to leave a comment here for the happy couple or for us, just click the “Comments” link immediately above this entry.

An Autumn Wedding at The Grandview

View Photographer Profile

Melissa & Mark have been some of our biggest fans since Day #1, so we knew we’d enjoy their wedding day. Melissa was definitely in her glory, and she looked positively radiant in her beautiful diamond-white gown. After a few minutes of photographing some bridals it was off to the church, where Mark was anxious to get under way and see his lovely bride come down the aisle. You could truly feel the energy of everyone’s excitement in the room.

Melissa made sure there were lots of nice little touches throughout the day that emphasized their love for color and variety, and that showcased their personalities. From her awesome hot-pink shoes to the animal print table linens, the theme was all about the fun time that she and Mark have with one another. We were excited to see Mark’s expression at seeing his own groom’s cake, made to look just like his beloved Plymouth Prowler. (a favorite car of mine, too, especially since seeing and photographing it during their engagement session!)  It was a wonderful autumn day for everyone. We’ve got to send a BIG shout of thanks to Melissa & Mark for taking such good care of us with a great meal at the Grandview, and for just all around having such a great time and allowing us to be a part of it with them.

We can’t wait to share all their photos! Their entire wedding photo gallery will be available in the “Client Proofs” area of our main website as soon as Melisssa & Mark return from Hawaii.  Please click the “Comments” link at the top of this entry to leave your thoughts for the happy couple or for us!
