Modern Photographer
Are you ready for this? Maybe you should sit down. Already sitting? Maybe you should stand up. There is only one word that comes close to describing Matt & Kate's wedding... EPIC! From start to finish it was nothing but fun. Everyone came ready to party and celebrate with Matt & Kate, and they certainly did. There's nothing more I need to say, the photos say it all... EPIC!
I have been meaning to get to this for a while, but as wedding season is still in full swing, personal work gets pushed back. Anyway, a little over a month ago, Meg and I went to Maine for a few days, as we both needed a bit of a break from the hecticness that can be every day life. She had been to Maine once before, I had never. I had only heard that it was beautiful. I have since found out that Maine is probably one of America's best kept secrets (or maybe I just haven't been paying enough attention) But Oh My God, I LOVED Maine. We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast in Freeport called the The James Place Inn, and if you ever happen to be going to Maine, I HIGHLY recommend you stay there. Anyway, I think Portland may be the coolest city I have ever been to, and the people of Maine are INSANELY nice. I could honestly go on for hours about how amazing everything was. So, for now, I will just leave you with a few of the photos I took while I was there. Expect more Maine photos in the future, because I will be going back there every chance I get. Also, if you happen to be getting married in Maine, I implore you, please hire me, just so I have an excuse to go back.
Whitney & Mark are troopers. They hiked a solid 5+ miles with me through some pretty narrow, winding trails in the Watchung Reservation. It was so worth it. I cannot wait for their wedding next year. It will probably involve less hiking (no promises) and more awesomeness. Enjoy.
When I sat down with Cindy & Nathan to discuss their wedding, I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that I was salivating at their description. Their wedding took place on the terraced steps of Pebble Beach on the East River, between the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge. From there, they had a Trinidad and Tobago style Carnival march through Dumbo complete with a steel drummer. Ending at Rebar, one of the most unique and awesome reception venues I have ever been to. I must say their wedding did not disappoint, it was a visual, and cultural feast from start to finish. As always, thank you to Zack Delaune for his 2nd shooting skills. And also Thank you to the newest member of the Dennis Pike Photogrpahy team, Garret Torres.
Enjoy.
I have often told other wedding photographers that I truly have the best clients ever. I stand by that. Christine & Mike were no exception. We clicked from the moment we met, we had a great time during their engagement shoot, and ever since then I have been looking forward to their wedding. It did not disappoint. I don't think I saw a single person that day without a huge smile plastered across their face. I know I had one the whole time. The only thing I can say is their reception was a little quiet and reserved for my tastes. Their friends and family could really learn to loosen up a little, just let loose, and have a good time. (I wish there was a sarcasm font) As always, a big thank you to Mr Zack Delaune for his 2nd shooting skills.
Enjoy!
