Engagement: Sandy & Joel

So...I always post engagement sessions before weddings, but I guess I was so excited about the photos from Sandy & Joel's wedding, that I forgot to post their awesome NYC engagement session!! Oops! So, here is some more Sandy & Joel for you - these guys may be moving in the future, so they wanted some photo memories of their time together in the city. We shot in Central Park - I have been going to the park since I was a kid and done many shoots there too, but every time I go, I find something new to check out or a different section to get lost in, love it :).

Wedding: Sandy & Joel

Tim & I had a blast at Sandy & Joel's wedding! They had a gorgeous weekend for a wedding where everyone was from out of town (NYC, England, Virginia + more!) - they chose to have a destination wedding in the Hudson Valley, choosing the lovely Bykenhulle House as their venue. Their outdoor ceremony in the garden was a little bright, a little warm, but definitely beautiful and the cocktail hour and reception were simply perfect. I'm posting a few extra photos because I know a lot of couples dream of wedding similar to this and hopefully these shots will provide some inspiration!

Great crowd + great food & location + great couple = great day everytime! Enjoy a few of my favorites!
