We already posted about shooting a wedding when Hurricane Irene barreled through the tristate area, and now we are presenting Victoria & John's celebration, which happened to fall on the other major weather day of 2011: October 29. On what would typically be an ideal fall day, with glowing colors, warm light and gentle breezes, we instead had ice, snow, wind, falling trees, traffic snarls... If you were in NJ, then you remember it well...
But, we had Victoria and John! A fantastic couple who turned the day into fun, joy and love. We became big Victoria fans about 5 minutes after she came to our house for a meeting. John didn't show up for the meeting, but he had a great excuse: he was working in India for the US State Department. The connection between them was fun to capture, and they had a great time with their friends and families.
We begin with portraits, Victoria at her parents' house, and John at the church, and then on through the ceremony moments:
And next, after a rather treacherous drive, the scene changes to The Newark Museum, where we captured some details of the beautiful party design:
Before the party started, we had a little time for some fun portraits with this great couple, they really enjoy each other:
How beautiful is that? OK, time for the party, with Victoria and John making their big entrance, followed by moments from their first dance:
And once the dance floor opened up, check out the fun and joy of these moves:
Cake for all:
And by this time, the party was rocking:
Our thanks to Victoria and John for a spectacular day!
