Finally, I have a short demo slideshow of my work up on YouTube. Hope to be making alot more of them, now that I know how, and there are so many things I would do differently! So many images i would have included that I remembered after the fact. Bottom line is, brides and grooms...get one for yourselves with ONLY your wedding on it, with only YOUR song choices. A slideshow of just one couple would have more continuity for the viewer...but this one is just a demo...
Enjoy!

Deanna and Jeff's awesome rainy day wedding
Deanna and Jeff's wedding happened on a rainy day in June this past season (were there any UN-rainy days back then???) The spring and early summer of 2009 was a time for us photographer's to "shoot between the raindrops" and make lemons out of lemonade.
Well this couple certainly got some good images despite the weather, and I had alot of fun with them as well. They were married at the Chapel at Bard College, which was lovely, and used a mansion on the property for their formals. The mansion had a large covered porch with pillars which really help us out, since it was POURING when we got there, and when we left!
The reception was at Hillside Manor in Kingston, NY. Everything was accented in red, which is, of course, my favorite accent color of the year! The favors were adorable, little terra cotta pots filled with seeds. Everyone had a great time and I enjoyed making their album!

Marissa and Justin's Big Fat Greek Wedding Album!
Marissa and Justin were the so happy on their wedding day, and it was the most beautiful wedding! Their ceremony took place at Kimisis Greek Orthodox Church in Poughkeepsie, which was rich with beautiful gold accents and artifacts of all kinds. The reception was at The Poughkeepsie Grand, and we had the opportunity to stroll in the streets for some pictures before their grand entrance, which included fireworks on every table! It was pretty exciting, and the rest if the evening was a non-stop party for a large group of close-knit, loving family and friends.
Photographing their wedding would have brought a tear to anyone's eye. To see such a profound sense of family and such love between them was inspiring to say the least.

Favorite Wedding trend of 2009- Seeing RED!
I have to say, I think my favorite trend this year was red flowers and accents. Yes, it's tried and true, and it is done alot, but you cant beat the color punch you get from red. It complimetns a bridal gown or a tuxedo nicely, and just sets everything off.
With red tablecloths, red ribbon, this wedding at The Links At Unionval was very impressive...
Red just seems to POP right out of any image!

Robin and Matt's October 16th Wedding
Robin and matt's wedding was certainly a nice affair, with such a beautiful couple and a nice (albeit COLD) fall day, everything seemed to turn out perfectly despite a few gliches here and there.
Robin was a lovely bride, and looked perfect down to every detail. her bridesmaids were so attentive to her needs and made sure she looked radiant!
Matt was handsome in full dress, and I think
the ensemble is very impressive on a groom,
as much so as any tuxedo could be.
The gardens at Locust Grove were still in bloom and made for a beautiful location to take pictures.
Locust Grove is as lovely as I remember it, the landscaping is just perfect and the hall itself really is very elegant inside.
It was the perfect setting for Robin and Matt's party and everyone seemed to have a great time.
Jeff and Stephanie from The DJ Solution made sure that the party went perfectly, and that the right music was played at all times. As usual, they are the utmost in professionalism, yet so accessible and accomodating.
Eventually, they had to cut those beautiful cakes!!!!!!
Congratulations, Robin and Matt, and thank you for the opportunity to photograph your wedding!
