Yaaaah!!! This wedding was STELLAR! I have really enjoyed every wedding I’ve photographed so far, but this one takes the cake in terms of sheer fun! Thomas and Abby, you rock!!! So, to prep you all for this long post, I had to scale down the selection count as I was near 200 with my original count due to waaaay too many awesome photos. So here’s what it boiled down to as we rocked the streets of Pennsylvania and New Jersey!
As we began in PA we had to trek it to Princeton, and so a trolley was enlisted (below)! It was pretty sweet!
I drove ahead to hook up with the fellas, and we had some fun in the apartment before the trolley rolled up.
I was totally digging the columns for the “first look”! (below)
Our next stop was the location they had their first kiss…(below)
Alright, I love these two shots. From the top, the umbrellas that Abigail ordered from a place in Seattle that rents vintage umbrellas really added amazing flavor to the shot, nice job Abby! And below…all I can say is that I had turned to walk toward the next destination after the above shot was done, only to turn around and see the wedding party beginning to do what you see below! Gotta love it when people get spontaneous!!!
The feet were a bit cold…
One of the groomsmen took to soliciting…
The below sequence was amazing, as they wanted to grab some ice cream from a great local spot where you can grab gelato, called the Bent Spoon. While the bride and groom grabbed ice cream a couple groomsmen hit the park for a game of acorn checkers (bottom right).
I got lucky with the above shot, as I was passing by to take a different photo and happened to glance over and see this…(above)
That’s right! They had the “Love” statue built for them out of ice! (below left)
The above two shots were great! The kid on the left was really as intense of a dancer as it looks, and he went on dancing for a LONG time!!! On the right was Abby’s response. And I don’t usually post photos of myself, but Abigail and Thomas insisted on a photo together and I loved it, so here it is! Thanks you two!
In closing, the day was awesome! Even down to the fact that the car on the right was mine! We realized they didn’t have a car to get to the hotel a few blocks away, so I had someone grab mine and I drove them myself! I hope you two are really enjoying life together, and enjoying the Jersey winter! Thanks for all the laughs!
