Sam + Leah

I’m happy to be posting my first wedding of ‘09! Sam and Leah had me prepared for a big party over at Stage 6, and it was a great way to get things rolling for this year.

They brought in a crew of Norwegian friends and they were the ushers. As you can see, they took their jobs very seriously.20090221-0482.jpg

Sam’s grandpa Peter officiated the ceremony. The ceremony and the things that Peter said were amazing, period… and the fact that it was Sam’s grandfather officiating really made it special.

As a part of the Scottish Knot tying tradition, Peter had them exchange their clans’ tartans during the ceremony. That’s Sam wearing the Johnston plaid, while Leah got the Maclean Tartan.

They took their guest book apart and put a page at each table. I thought that was a great way to give everyone a chance to sign something at their own pace.20090221-1111.jpg 20090221-1134.jpg20090221-1234.jpg

Amazing job on the flowers. They were done by Flowers, Sticks and Stones. I can’t find their website… but there’s more about them here.

    To put it simply, I believe that the day of a wedding is full of great emotion and energy, and my aim is to capture it. I pride myself on my ability to blend in and capture images that tell the story of your day in a unique yet timeless way. I'm based in New York City, and while many of the weddings that I shoot are nearby, I frequently shoot weddings across the US and around the world.
