Some of you might remember Patricia and Chris from their engagement pictures in the Victorian Gardens Amusement Park. Well the wedding day, ended up just as amusing.
After Patricia and Chris got ready at the Waldorf, we headed to the Central Park Conservatory Gardens to introduce the couple for their “first sighting” and then to take some portraits there.
Shortly after Patricia stepped into her dress, she was modeling for her mother when I saw this shot. (Isn’t it amazing how alike they look?)

When I stepped into the next room, the flower girls were checking out the happenings in the street below.

At Central Park, the girls were having some fun together, but the younger flower girl had told her father that she had no interest in wearing a flower wreath/headpiece on her head. Dad figured that when she was distracted he could just slip it on and she wouldn’t notice.

He was wrong.

So that idea was a bust, but there were plenty of cute moments to capture nonetheless.

Shooting at St. Patrick’s Cathedral is a bit different than most churches. First of all, you’re in one of the most crowded tourist locations in Manhattan. And even though the space is so large (it seems to take hours just to walk down the aisle), they keep the crowd contained to certain sections so you feel alone in the vastness of the place. But once you exit through those giant oak doors, you’re on your own in Touristville.

And it seems like the whole world is there to congratulate you.

Or at least be in your pictures…

The plan was to take this great old Rolls convertible around town for pictures – but it started stalling after about 1/2 a block and after we got to our first stop to take a few shots…

the Rolls decided she was through and that she wasn’t going to start again. The limo driver called for a stretch to come pick us up but what fun was that going to be? I saw the pedicabs and hailed two putting Patricia and Chris in one while I followed, shooting, in the other.
We got a lot of great stuff rolling in insane circles through traffic.

But the funniest was Chris taking off when the drivers pulled over at the Waldorf to let us off.
