sometimes i decide i’m going to leave one of the classic summer holiday weekends free for myself, but when rachel and andrew wrote me about their memorial day weekend wedding, i decided to entertain the inquiry and i am very glad i did. rachel and andrew, and their family and friends, were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. for their engagement session, rachel and andrew came out to my hood and for their wedding i headed up to the estate at florentine gardens in northern new jersey. while the temperatures dramatically warmed up just before their wedding day, the rain held out… it was meant to be!
love this!
i like how i worked both dad’s into this shot…
rachel gets emotional as her look is just about complete…
sisters…
rachel tears up reading a card from andrew…
so pretty…
rachel composes herself just before her first look with andrew…
simple and straightforward, love it.
hah.
i love ketubah signings because they are usually a bit more casual then ceremonies. i had a lot of favorite photos from this ketubah signing, lots of smiles, but i think this one sums it up the best!
andrew watches on as rachel approaches…
andrew circling his bride…
i love that the parents stand up together with the bride and groom during a jewish ceremony…
mazel tov!
love this!
‘it’s a bagel!’
it didn’t take the napkin on his head for me to figure out that rachel’s dad is a fun guy…
although temps heated up and the threat of rain was upon us… rachel and andrew’s wedding day turned out to be perfect! thank you to kelsey davis for assisting me.
