Erica and Billy’s Wedding at The Palace

During our first meeting, I really liked Erica and Billy very much – then we had an engagement photo session  in their hometown in Hoboken, NJ.  I take time to listen and talk, and learn as much as I can about them and their families. Being “present” to who they are and exactly what is important to them is key in documenting one of the most important days in their lives. It would be impossible to not love this couple – they are upbeat, energetic, and totally crazy about eachother – and it shows in every single image of them together! I have had so much fun with Erica and Billy; I really did not want it to end. Beautiful florals by Conroy’s – and so great to meet Cathy. Always beautiful and professional Vanity and Mascara for Erica’s hair and makeup, as well as her bridesmaids’. All of the amazing printed pieces designed by the amazing Kristen Green of Greenbean Designs.  And I always love being at The Palace at Somerset Park, NJ; totally loved the fireworks!

Erica & Billy’s E-session in Hoboken

Thank you guys for a really great day!! Even though it was hot enough to be running into the fountains, you hung in there with me! I loved walking around to photograph the two of you, and really look forward to photographing your wedding next year at The Palace!!
