JP Wedding Photography

Simon and Rachel were an awesome laid back Brooklyn couple. They brought a ton of personality into the wedding, and I had a great time working with them to pick out some spots for photos leading up to the wedding (who would have that that Ikea had so much potential as a location!)

I met up at their house where Simon and his friends were working out the finer points on the double-windsor.

Rachel was at a nearby hotel getting ready.

They had a sweet old school yellow taxi cab to get around in.

We took a spin down to Red Hook and the garden next to Ikea.

And then on up to the St. Paul’s in Carroll Gardens for the ceremony.

They did the reception at one of my favorite Brooklyn spots: Bubby’s. They had these cool wheatgrass centerpieces that Simon and Rachel made themselves.

Simon’s a beer brewer, and he made a special batch so that all the wedding guests could take one for the road. Awesome little hang tags for them too.

Here are some of my favorite pictures from Sherri and David’s wedding. They got married recently at Bubby’s. It was my last wedding of the year (though I’ve got another one to blog coming up, stay tuned), and I knew it was going to be a good way to end the year up. Getting to know Sherri and David while we were making our game plan for the day was awesome, and I knew it was going to be a fun one.

Joao second shot on this one, and rocked it as usual.

I started the day with David at The Art of Shaving. I love the classic shave with a straight razor.

Then it was over to meet up with Sherri and the girls in the Dumbo apartment where they were getting ready.

They had a magnet message on the door for Sherri.

David arrived and saw her for the first time at the apartment.

We walked on over to Bubby’s.

They met each other in an art class, and incorporated various classic pieces of artwork into their place holders.

Guests took pictures at the photobooth and put together a scrapbook.

I’m just wrapping up my edits for Laura and Steve’s wedding (at 2:30am….) before heading upstate for the rest of the week. These guys were such a sweet couple. We went for a pancake breakfast at Bubby’s a couple weeks before the wedding to run over the details, and that’s when I really started to picture their plans for the day and get super stoked for the wedding. Joao joined me on this one, and he rocked it as usual.

I met up with Laura while she was getting ready. That’s David Lyle Jones Munoz doing her hair and makeup. It was my first time working with David, and as you’ll see, he did a fantastic job.

Joao met up with Steve while he was getting ready. Here he takes a last minute run over his vows on the way over to Bubby’s .

They saw each other for the first time at Bubby’s.     

Leading up to the ceremony. James Abel was on hand coordinating everything, and did a great job.   

Steve right before the ceremony.  

And Laura right before the ceremony.  

Laura and Steve had an awesome first dance. They were telling me beforehand how they had done all the practice in their apartment, and they were a little worried about pulling it off on the unfamiliar dance floor at Bubby’s. Well, they nailed it!

New York City Swing played the reception. They kept everyone moving, had a ton of personality, and were just generally fantastic.

Some impromptu limbo.

Taking full advantage of the photobooth at Bubby’s.

Considering it was at Bubby’s Pie Company, Laura and Steve had a wedding pie rather than a cake :)
