Sharing some images from Jennifer & Joseph’s  recent Fall wedding.

Their moving ceremony was held at Our Lady of Lourdes in Massapequa Park and officiated by Monsignor Jim Lisante.

Afterwards, their joyous reception was held at The Venetian Yacht Club in Babylon NY.

I want to thank my talented friend Nick Giardina from Nick and Kelly Photography who traveled from New Jersey to second shoot for me.

Every wedding is unique. Every bride – every groom…and when documenting weddings  – I am there to tell a story…in this case Jennifer & Joseph’s story.

I could have omitted the images below from this blog post…but I decided to include them.

They’re honest and real and they truthfully depict Jennifer’s  heart and this part of her day . . .Long Island Wedding Photographer_0163

As Jennifer’s makeup artist (Christina Doepp) was  almost complete with applying Jen’s makeup  – Jennifer started to cry – reminiscing about her beloved Dad that had passed suddenly before her wedding.

Her makeup artist quickly grabbed paper towels to stop the flow of tears.

It was so touching.

And with the help of her Mom and bridesmaids beside her she was able to celebrate with great jubilation as the wedding day proceeds…you’ll see.

 Jennifer you are so precious.

As we departed Jennifer’s childhood home – her brother quickly grabbed her  dog Bella for a photo.

Jennifer & Joseph wanted to quickly stop at the Babylon Carriage House – for a photo where they had their first date.

Jennifer can’t resist checking out the cute dog.
