Joyce & Phil | Peek N’ Peak Resort | Clymer, New York

Joyce and Phil…Joyce and Phil….where do I start with these two? You know it’s going to be a great working relationship when your first phone conversation is filled with laughter and jokes like we’d known each other for years. Joyce had a perfect vision of what she was looking for immediately, which was a wedding day void of all of the cliches often associated with wedding photography. Needless to say, we connected instantly. As you will see, Joyce and Phil are very expressive and so loving towards each other and their family and friends. I traveled up to Peek N’ Peak Resort & Spa to meet the Joyce and the girls and was greeted with an immediate warmth from everyone that really elevates what I can do photographically. I then met Phil and the guys for the end of their golf round and some drinks and they were just as welcoming! The ceremony was at a different level. As one of Joyce’s bridesmaids commented later, “You are not supposed to have so much fun at your wedding ceremony!” We did a quick portrait session (it was really just a time to be silly for a few minutes, Joyce and Phil weren’t interested in any traditional wedding portraiture) and it was off to their reception. As expected, the reception was ridiculous fun. Phil had his dance moves down but then again it seemed like everyone did. The reception ended with no one wanting to leave and an encore by their band! It was such a great time and I was so happy to be a part of it! Congratulations Joyce and Phil, we are so happy for you both!!!

Family Friday | Macy’s Thanskgiving Day Parade | New York City

We spent Thanksgiving with our family in New York and took the kids to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade for the first time! I’m not sure what was more of a thrill for them though, the parade or riding the subway, which is always their favorite. We had an awesome time and stuffed ourselves later that evening with great friends and family out on Long Island. Here are a few highlights from the day!

The first glimpse of Kermit The Frog popping out from behind the high rise on 80th street near Central Park was one of their favorite moments.

Snoopy, another favorite, wowed the chilly and cramped crowd, some of which waited for hours to keep their spot near the parade route. We were not some of those that waited that long!

Now, I know Turkey and Stuffing are traditional cuisine for Thanksgiving Day, but a hot dog and pretzel can make any grumpy 3-year-old happy.

Teresa and Matt were married on Long Island, New York at St. John’s of Lattingtown Episcopal Church with their reception held at the stunning Venetian Yacht Club. We stopped over at The Westbury Gardens for a short portrait session that was cut a bit short by tremendous winds that swept through! Here is their wedding story!

Steve & Kelli March 22nd, 2008

We seriously get to work with the coolest couples! Kelli and Steve were so laid back and easy to work with. They live in Sioux Falls, South Dakota where Kelli is the education reporter for KELO-TV.
The ceremony, held at Salem Church in Darmstadt, had guests in the balcony wiping away tears (check out the photos below) followed by a non-stop party at one of our favorite reception venues, The Cambridge Golf Club. We are thrilled to have at least three other receptions to photograph at Cambridge this year, but even more thrilled that Kelli and Steve chose us to document their day.
Elizabeth and I wish you both the best!
