Melissa and Kris’ wedding has finally happened! After rescheduling from last year due to the pandemic, they were able to finally tie the knot this past month.

The day is finally here! Ryan and Jeanne got hitched! This will go down as one of the most memorable weddings I covered in the history of my photography business. Why? Because it’s my Coochikoo’s wedding! That’s an inside joke by the way. Ryan and I go way back, like since before we both JUST […]

Katie and Marcus’ Wedding at the Lithuanian World Center was a BLAST! And we knew it would be. I’ve never felt so many emotions in 1 day. I truly felt that way from beginning to end.

“You can go get her now”, said the officiant to Jake. Jake quickly walked towards Rachel, being escorted by her father. He released a big nervous sigh. He gave Rachel’s father a hug and put his right hand to cover eyes, trying to make sense of the overwhelming emotions he’s having, as he took his […]
