I headed upstate again for Nathan and Miriam’s wedding over the 4th of July. While we were working out the plans for the weekend, I knew these guys were going to be a blast when Miriam suggested I bring my swim trunks along.

I met up with them the day before the wedding while they were doing a quick rehearsal. The wedding was at Miriam’s parents house.

Nice summer day for a dip in their pool.

Then we went over to the hotel in town where they gathered with a small group of friends and family to sign the ketubah.

Then outside for some barbecuing.

Classic 4th of July grill out. I want to know where you can get this tap/cooler setup with the american eagle.

Everyone wore nametags to get to know each other better.

Miriam’s friends threw down some Spice Girls dance moves as a throwback to their childhood.

The next day and back to the house to set things up for the wedding. Miriam’s parents are architects, and planted those trees when they bought the house over 20 years ago. Nice foresight!

Nathan and Miriam were getting ready in separate parts of the house.

It was the 4th of July. So they had their own fireworks show!

I had a great time cruising around downtown with these guys around sunset. We happened across a piano over in Battery Park in the Play Me. I’m Yours project, so they had the music and the inspiration to bust out some moves (they’re tango dancers!). It was awesome to get to know these guys even more, and we shot right up to the very last bit of light.

My favorites from Erin and Roman’s wedding. I had a blast with these guys, working out how to tie a bowtie with Roman (I swear one of these days I’m going to have to figure out how to do that myself), cruising around SoHo, and then back to OmniBerkshire Place for the wedding.

Cool rings. And great ring bearer bowl by Paloma’s Nest.

We headed out for some corn on the cob in Soho

So a little back story here. Last year, I shot Laura and Steve’s wedding at Bubby’s, and I blogged about their awesome first dance. Erin gets the credit for teaching them the whole thing. She’s runs a company called Start Dancing NYC , and they found her when they were looking to learn something special for their first dance together.

So naturally, Erin and Roman had to have a super cool entrance and first dance.

They both nailed it. Roman seemed pretty stoked.

They had this cool plate which they invited their guests to inscribe a little message on.
