Central Park Boathouse Wedding Photography | Brooke & Joe

I  know it’s something that I’m probably writing about here all the time, how wonderful people are. Well, maybe not all people, but I’m specifically referring to the clients I get to work with. It truly is one of the best parts about my job: the couples I get to connect with, and in many cases, form lasting friendships. I don’t know how I’ve been so lucky to be paired with so many completely relaxed (yet still totally organized), fun, passionate and happy people. I’m talking about the kind of people that just shine from the inside, out. You just know from the very first moment: these are GOOD PEOPLE and everything clicks from there. Well, Brooke and Joe are no exception. I knew that whatever was going to happen – Brooke was going to be there with that giant smile of hers. And let me tell you, that smile didn’t quit for one minute, she was doing that all day long! And I have to say, the day started with rain, and it ended with rain. But her smile didn’t quit. Same with Joe. Their day was not going to be defined by weather, seriously, they’re too laid back for that. And wouldn’t you know, Mother Nature rewarded them with a BEAUTIFUL patch of sunshine right there in the middle and almost on queue. So while the concrete was still wet, the pavement became dry enough for Brooke and Joe to enjoy a few hours in The Park, to take pictures, enjoy some time with family, act goofy with their friends – and enjoy some genuine moments of quiet together just before they said their vows and became hosts to the party of their life! There was no finer backdrop for it all than New York’s Central Park. A place that is filled with beauty and respite in every corner. Thank you Brooke and Joe, for having me along to capture all of the fun! xoxo

Brooke and Joe New York City Wedding | The Hudson Hotel

Brooke and Joe chose the backdrop of New York City’s quintessential Central Park to get married. To them, Central Park is so close to their home, they practically consider it their second home! (: At the park’s edge is The Hudson Hotel, Philippe Starck’s answer to sleek and stylish slumber. It’s the perfect spot for a bride and groom to pamper themselves and their guests on the day of their wedding! See all the fun getting-ready details below….

Evan and Ben | Sanger, California Wedding Photography

Two things that are guaranteed to have me SWOONING on the day of the wedding? A big red barn and a Jenny Packham dress. I’m a serious sucker for rustic details and a flowy, beaded frock. (= What did our Bride, Evan, say her favorite part was? Right next to seeing her groom for the first time, it was the quality time she enjoyed with family and friends. And not just on the day of the wedding, but the entire week leading up to the big event. I’m in complete agreement with her! This probably is the only time in your life when you will have all the people gathered around you who have loved and supported you throughout your lifetime. It’s a profound feeling when you look around the room and realize what each person means to you. Don’t cry! Or do!!! Just don’t forget to take it all in…remember every moment…or better said, remember to remember! xo -Jill

St. Regis Hotel Wedding Fashion | Romona Keveza SS14 | New York

If you’re a bride who’s on the hunt for that perfect Wedding Gown, then you probably know that last week was Bridal Market in New York City! I had the opportunity to capture a handful of shows and I can’t WAIT to share all of the Bridal Fashion STYLE with you!!!! One of my favorite shows to photograph was Romona Keveza. {Wasn’t I just talking about a gold wedding dress???} Romona featured her Evening Line and Couture Bridal Collection….rich with Gold and Jewel Tones, big juicy red lips and a sassy REVERSE french manicure. The Library at the St. Regis set the perfect tone, a truly SOPHISTICATED affair.
