Michelle and Paul in NYC—a fairy tale love…
I am so lucky to have clients who love my work enough to fly me across the country or world to shoot their wedding. I really can’t think of a bigger honor–especially when that place is NYC, and I happen to know that there are some super talented photographers out there! In fact, Michelle and Paul and I were all joking about how confused their familes were when they said that they were flying in a photographer from Colorado of all places, to photograph their East Coast wedding! I mean, really—Colorado? Could there be superior talent in “middle America?” Ha ha! But I am thanking my lucky stars that I get to work with Michelle and Paul–not to do a destination wedding, but because I adore these two! They are an incredible couple who have the most wonderful, fairy tale love story … You see, Paul was Michelle’s 8th grade algebra teacher… Of course they didn’t get together back then, but fell in love a few years back–both now teachers (actually, Paul is a principal). It sounds scandalous, which is one of the reasons I love their story so much–it sounds scandalous, but it isn’t at all—it’s actually true love and a perfect match if I’ve ever seen one. They have one of those stories that gives me hope that love can be found in the most unexpected places and can still surprise us at any moment in life….
Michelle and Paul are big Mets fans… they had two shirts made with the date of their wedding on the backs (7/18) I thought it was an adorable idea—and it somehow fits them so perfect! They are so much fun!
beautiful Julie! I love the play with your shutter speeds…yummy!
how fun!!! they have splendid taste in photographers! the color in these images is fabulous!
What a sweet idea with the jerseys. The second shot is my favorite 🙂 so beautiful!
Class stuff i love the movement in the shot from the marketplace…
The walker by’s add great to it.. It looks like film to me :-)…
I love your method of processing, You should talk about it in a post Juile!…
Great work…as usual :-0..!
Yes, there is superior talent in middle America…you! Love the one where everyone is whizzing by them.
Great shoot, babe! Love the motion one and the close ups of their faces. As Jim Morrison said, “the West is the best.” 🙂
I absolutely love the one where they are standing still and there is movement all around them. Your work is beautiful.
Stop having such gorgeous clients; it’s just not fair. 😉
LOVE the bridge lights–fanTAStic! The BW bridge kiss and the one right before it are two of my favs. Many of these are inspiration-folder-worthy. All are yummy-can’t get enough, as always!
I love the last couple images. Beautiful bokeh of the bridge on the back.
Thanks again Julie for capturing “us” so perfectly! We are so grateful to have you as our photographer and can’t wait for our big day!
You always achieve such fantastic depth Julie…
Gah. I keep coming back to this post. #2 just rocks my world.
