Michele & Ben’s Wedding – Grand Summit Hotel, Summit NJ

The greatest thing about moving my business from NYC to NJ was that it brought to light all these new & amazing places to have a wedding. Each weekend I am discovering a new venue and location to shoot and that is bringing about a new level of creativity in me. Narrowing down the shots for this preview was so much harder than expected…… not that having too many great shots is bad thing. Just wait for the slideshow next week and you will see!

The day with Michele and Ben started with myself and my 2nd shooter Dennis Pike at the Grand Summit Hotel getting some wonderful shots of the bride and groom getting ready.IMG_9733IMG_9771IMG_9725groomIMG_97523717718073_0b349e789f_oIMG_9784

From there we headed out to an absolutely perfect pre-ceremony location, Reeves-Reed Arboretum. Michele asked me to set up the first meeting with Ben in the arboretum so we hid Ben away and placed Michele among the rose bushes. Enter Ben stage right for a touching and wonderful scene.IMG_9835

After the Arboretum we headed to the ceremony at the Christ Church in Summit, NJ. Michele was so excited to ring the bell after the ceremony and would not give up the rope so easily. She made it seem like such fun that I had to give the bell a ring myself.IMG_0176
