Kristen and Karl's Wedding

As we all know, Saturday was a very rainy ominus day, but it did not detere the
excitement and enthusiasm of Kristen and Karl's special day!  Kristen and her
wedding party were so much fun when we started at her house!  The ceremony was
awesome at the Siena College Chapel and then once again we were off to the
elegant Fraklin Plaza where they never disappoint in bringing their best to
every wedding.
This wedding was filled with surprises!  Two fantastic first dances, a special
song written and sung by Karl's friend, a dance floor filled with happy guests
thanks to DJ Paul Malo.   Let's not forget Bret Wasserman who does an awesome
job capturing the entire day.
Thank you Kristen, Karl and family for making us part of your happy day and
making it easy and fun for us, you rock!

Sylvia and Neil

We had a fun shoot with Syliva and Neil at Washington Park in Albany. It was much colder then it looks in these photos, but they were willing and so was I. Looking forward to the big day in November at Saratoga National Golf Course.

Robyn and Dan's Wedding

Robyn and Dan had the "best wedding ever" last night at the Franklin Plaza. We
started out at the Franklin Plaza Suites where everyone was staying.  From the
moment we met the bride and groom to be, we knew we were in for a treat.  They
are fun, spontaneous and both have a great sense of humor which made our work
that much easier to get some awesome memories in photo's.   There were so many
surprises that added to this already special day that I don't know where to
begin.
First there was a red mustang that Robyn surprised Dan with to drive to Russell
Sage College to take some photo's.  Then after all the formalities were
completed, Paul Malo, the DJ for this excellent wedding had everyone dancing The
Slovackian Wedding Dance that should be a tradition at everybody's wedding!  The
last surprise of the night was when Dan sang to Robyn and there was not a dry
eye in the room.
Thanks to the Franklin Plaza for always surpassing every bride and grooms dream
wedding come true and special thanks to Robyn and Dan for just being themselves
and letting us be part of their most memorable wedding!

Brenda and Jeff's Wedding
Saturday, October 17, 2009

What a beautiful cool crisp October day and perfect for Brenda and Jeff's
wedding day!  As we arrived at the home of Brenda's parents, out of town family
members were getting ready to enjoy their niece's wedding, just as they did
Brenda's twin sister eight years ago, and I was pleased to have been the
photographer at that wedding too! Brenda looked beautiful in her off the
shoulder dress and perfect necklace that accentuated the neckline.
Despite the chill in the air, everyone was willing to endure the cold and go
outside to capture the beautiful hills that the Van Patten Country Club
overlooked.  After a very heartfelt father and daughter dance, family and
friends were treated to a wonderful dinner and then danced the rest of the
night, thanks to Pam Pardee the DJ.
We would like to thank Brenda, Jeff, the wedding party and family, for allowing
us to be part of this very happy occasion!
