Priscilla and Stephen’s E-Session
The W Hotel, Hoboken, New Jersey

Cold weather doesn’t mean that environmental photography stops.  For Priscilla and Stephen’s engagement session, we got inventive and decided to use the lobby of The W Hotel in Hoboken, NJ.  We knew the spot was hip, because we had been there a few months prior for a wedding and enjoyed the modern lighting and cool lounge-y furniture.  So off we went…

Getting cozy against the mesh wall.

Some of our favs from the session.  I rocked the fisheye - Steven kept a little tighter…

Classic.

Love splashed in purple!

We can’t wait to celebrate with Priscilla and Daniel this May at The Round Hill House in Washingtonville, NY!

MaryAnna & George’s Wedding
Manhattan Penthouse, New York City, NY

Ok ok… so there are probably twice as many photos here as we normally blog from a wedding, but we’re strongly toying with the idea of turning these images (plus a few others) into a spotlight gallery for our website.  I thought it would be fun to debut a bunch of our favs here first.  Consider this step one.

We met MaryAnna and George at the new W Hotel on the waterfront in Hoboken, New Jersey.  This hotel, is seriously cool.  Both the lobby and their suite really made for a fun start.  Combine that with an amazing couple and some great accents & we couldn’t stop clicking our shutters.   Especially, with amazing details like MaryAnna’s amazing black and signature red-soled Christian Louboutin Shoes.

I love this moment Steven captured of MaryAnna glancing toward New York.  I think it’s especially poignant because the wedding itself was held at The Manhattan Penthouse.  It sort of hints at everything to come.  Plus as you’ll notice later, the venue also overlooks the Empire State Building.

Some playful romance by the bar…

and some sexy eyes from the bride!

Then off to Jersey City for the wedding ceremony at Evangelismos Greek Orthodox Church.

We took a second set of photographs in New York City at Union Square.  It’s always fun walking the streets of NY with a bride and groom - who says NY’ers aren’t friendly?

Finally, we arrived at The Manhattan Penthouse on 5th Ave, ready to party!

Then came the drinking, and the dancing…

and the drinking while dancing! 

After spending so much time on the shoes, the rings were feeling left out.

An ending kiss overlooking the Empire State Building.  Thanks for a great night!  We loved celebrating with you!
