Back on Point:
I was honored to be asked to photograph the beautiful, gorgeous sister of just-as-gorgeous (wedding photographer) Abby Liga who did some amazing pre-shots of her sister leading up the the wedding. The wonderful Nicole Kent came and photographed it with me - thank you girl!!
It was at (what I believe to be) one of the MOST GORGEOUS RITZ Carlton hotels I've seen yet (and I've seen quite a few). Be-au-ti-ful I tell you!
Thank you Amy and Joel for having us be a part of your amazing day!!
Enjoy!!!
Beautiful Bride Amy
Getting Ready
We had some fun taking pics in the Suite before heading downstairs. They had this SUPER awesome tub that looked like an egg shell split in half. Being the sister of a photographer, it wasn't even a question about going in to get some fun shots. Check the slideshow for even more!
I LOVED the decor in the lobby - it matched their wedding details perfectly too!
We went outside near the ocean for a few pictures while there was still daylight. The breeze was my assistant :)
Joel looking his best before the ceremony
It was pitch-black out for the Ceremony so we tried something I normally never do - using lighting for the ceremony!! Generally, we photograph during daylight or twilight hours where there's still lots of time to just use natural light. I'm really happy with our off-camera flash set-ups though - not a single on-camera flash went off (from my camera at least!) ;)
Love the moody-feeling of this shot of them exchanging the rings
Man & Wife!
We slipped into the restaurant for a few photographs as well. Again, loved the decor!
The whole wedding had a rat-pack, classy, Sinatra-esque feel to it. A few details:
Cocktail hour:
Be sure the check out the sequence in the slideshow of the bouquet toss too - it got stuck in a light fixture the first time around and the response from the girls and the guys that pulled it down was quite classic!
Last, but not least, the first dance:
Congratulations Amy & Joel!!
