  • Colleen & David's Wedding

    I'm neck deep in beautiful wedding photos, literally. Well, almost. Actually, I'm busy editing Colleen & David's photos from this past Friday. They were married at the Lessing's Timber Point Mansion in Great River, New York. The maitre'd is Teo, and he's a first-class gentleman. Everyone, including the vendors received the royal treatment.

    Colleen and her Mom, Jackie, look beautiful.

    The day started at Colleen's parent's house in Holtsville, NY. The family dog, Isabella, was so funny and adorable. Most dogs bark when you enter the house. Isabella however, barks most when she thinks you're going to leave.


    Isabella!
    Colleen and David were lucky with the weather. Although it was raining off and on, we had enough dry periods to get some outdoor photos.

    Michael (Dad) & Colleen arrive at the church.

    This photo will make a great double-page spread for the album.

  • Cielo & Scott's Nautical Nuptials...

    Wedding Ahoy! Argh, avast me harties, and shiver me timbers, this wedding was more fun than eating fish-n-chips in Davey Jones locker. Oops, I better knock of the pirate talk, because International Talk Like A Pirate Day was September 19, 2008, but, Cielo and Scott's wedding was yesterday, September 20, 2008. Which was a fantastic day to tie a nautical knot (sorry couldn't resist). The weather was perfect -- in the low 70's with a light breeze.

    What a fun wedding! The day began at the Hilton Milennium Hotel in NYC. The ceremony took place at The Seaman's Church, followed by family photos on the roof, and culminating in a fabulous cruise around Manhattan aboard the La Romantica Yacht leaving from Southstreet Seaport. Cielo and Scott planned their wedding from their home in California. To make coordination much easier they hired super-duper wedding planner extraordinaire Emily Lester of EM Event Management NYC.

    Here's a brief photo selection:


    Q: What's better than a cool shot of the bride (Cielo) in the limo?
    A: A double reflection of the photographer -- Me!
    Not to worry, I took several without my reflection.
    Seriously, as frequent viewers to this blog already know, I love having fun with reflections -- Just check out my reflection web site World Of Wagner (WOW).

    Scott looks handsome from any angle.
     
    Here's an unusual ring/hand shot.

    This photo was taken on the Seaman's Church rooftop at 241 Water Street.

    Ceilo and Scott hounded by the paparazzi. New Yorkers are so brazen!

    Cielo & Scott quickly became pros at doing the dip.

    On the way from the chapel to the boat, Cielo's nephew Jordan (kneeling) ran into some of his skateboarding buddies, who were happy to mug for the camera. Jordan can olley a 4-stair -- NICE!
    Cielo & Scott strut their stuff.

    Check out the waterfall underneath the Brooklyn Bridge.

    Scott really knows how to sweep a girl off her feet.

    "OMG the pictures are amazing, you're way too fast. these are great. We didn't even remember your being around for some of the shots. You were great to work with, and our families loved you too.  We just got back to Cali, and just exhausted, and still incredibly elated on cloud nine, the pictures capture all that emotion." -- Cielo

  • Strange Reality

    I photographed the following photo of a musical duo composed of a woodland nymph/fairy, and a folksy guitarist in Penn Station, New York. I was waiting for my Long Island Railroad Train, and couldn't resist the opportunity to shoot such pixel-worthy subjects. They actually sounded pretty good. I admire anyone with the courage to wear green wings in public. I also like the juxtaposition between the fairy and the soldiers, because they're both dressed for adventures far from common-place realities.

    I wish I had given the duo my wedding photographer business card, as I can only imagine how unusual, and fun their wedding attire/celebration would be -- think Peter Pan meets Victoria Secret.
