WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE NEWBORN SESSION >
January 3, 2017
I am so excited to share Laina and Anthony’s beautiful Westbury Manor on Long Island! This wedding was filled with such gorgeous details (like Laina’s vintage engagement ring) and we had the most stunning morning light, I am so happy to share this day!
I started the day at Laina’s parents house in Massapequa. We had beautiful morning light and I was so happy she allowed me to photograph her dress outside hanging from a tree! She was a little apprehensive at my suggestion, but I am so glad she trusted me 🙂
While I was with the girls, my second shooter Tessie was with the happy guys. Anthony was one of my most dapper groom’s ever, I loved his white dress shoes while all the guys had brown!
Anthony was one of my most emotional grooms ever and I loved capturing his excitement and his tears as he saw Laina for the first time for the first look – such a priceless moment!
Following the first look, we used every inch of the Westbury Manor to capture photos of just the two of them. These two were so easy to photograph, Laina had the most stunning smile and the two of them together were just so photogenic!
Eventually it was time for their sunny outdoor ceremony, there was not a dry eye in the audience when Laina walked down the aisle. Throughout their highly personal ceremony, they wrote their own vows and Laina’s Aunt sang a song that deeply personal to them while her father played guitar.
Once the adorable and hilarious speeches concluded and dinner was served, I loved capturing all the dance moves from their group! But before their day concluded, Laina jumped on the microphone and sang with her bridesmaids, her grandfather performed a song and her dad played another song while our love birds danced away on the dance floor.
I loved capturing this beautiful and fun wedding! Scroll through to view my favorites from their day! xoxox
