More About This Website

Welcome to our blog! Here you can learn a little more about ShelleyAndKeith Photography-- who we are, what we do, and how we do it-- with plenty of images from our photographic adventures. You can see more wedding imagery on our PORTFOLIO SITE, www.shelleyandkeith.com

We photograph weddings in New Jersey, New York City, Connecticut, and Philadelphia, always working together as a team. For the start of the day, we can be in two locations to capture the preparation of bride and groom simultaneously. The rest of the day involves our practiced teamwork. After hundreds of weddings, we know how to capture moments from multiple angles simultaneously, which expands the storytelling power of our coverage. We have each won awards from the Wedding PhotoJournalist Association (WPJA), and also have an award from the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association (AGWPJA). Our work has been published in Brides Magazine. We are a 2010 pick for The Knot's Best of Weddings.

We look forward to capturing the unique and subtle qualities of our couples, letting their relationship lead the way, with a minimum of posing. After all, the whole idea is to communicate the singular love story that is at the heart of a beautiful wedding day.

    Stacey and David at the Crystal Plaza

    Stacey and David's wedding had all the right elements-- a fabulous couple, great locations, attention to details and planning, a smart timeline, great guests, etc.... They even hit the jackpot with the weather, an unpredictable factor in March. Shelley made some beautiful images of Stacey getting ready, with a gorgeous gown by Priscilla of Boston. How beautiful is this girl?

    And then, let's add one majorly handsome groom, before the ceremony:

    The marriage took place at the amazing Princeton Chapel, on the Princeton University campus:

    It's huge! For example, here's a wide angle from the back of the chapel-- Stacey and David are way up front, getting married:

    Here are just a few images from their celebration:

    After some quick family photos, Keith got this view of their joyous exit:

    We made some images on the campus surrounding the chapel-- no posing required for these guys, in the love zone:

    Shelley was in the limo for this expressive moment:

    Next was a visit to the Princeton Battlefield, a big open field that is a favorite spot for local geese, and we all know the residue of that... This is when it's good to marry Prince Charming, who has no problem carrying his bride across the danger zone:

    There's a wonderful iconic monument there, with Greek colums, perfect for a few creative moments. Again, not really posing, just suggesting, we love it when the expressivity happens:

    And yes, he carried her back to the limo, this guy is something else... Now the location changes to the Crystal Plaza, a beautiful venue in Livingston. In the falling light, we made a few images in the garden area:

    The ballroom is wonderful, the perfect setting for their first dance, a dramatic, classic moment, just the two of them, plus the videographer who shared the floor with his girlfriend dolly:

    Time for the Hora, with fun for all:

    Everybody had a great time, and that big dancefloor got a good workout:

    A perfect day, a perfect couple! Thanks, Stacey and David, for making it possible...
