Hi Brian-

It has been just two years since you shot our wedding and I just wanted to thank you again for the job that you and your team did. Aaron and I were just flipping through our album, reminiscing about the day, and it is amazing how much emotion you were able to capture in all of the pictures. The images bring back all of the memories and the excitement of the day, which can be felt looking through the album.  There are a few in particular that bring me back to the exact moment when Aaron and I saw each other for the first time before the ceremony and it’s like being there all over again.

Our wedding really was one big party- exactly what we were hoping for- and that is the exact feeling we get looking through our album. It was such a special day, one that we and our families love to remember and talk about and we are lucky to have such amazing pictures to look back on.

Thanks again for everything.

All the best,

Kim and Aaron

and a party it was…

Here’s a shot Ron took of Soyeon and the girls…

We got into the fact that Tim works for a large aerospace manufacturer and could name for us every plane as it went overhead.

Ron got this cool ceremony shot as Soyeon was walking down the aisle.

Then during cocktails, it was time for the Paebak.

Apparently, since Soyeon and Tim caught so many dates and nuts in their silk as their parents threw them they are going to have 23 children.

If it’s true, I’m wishing you both lots of luck with that…

I’ve got to say, I like that the editor called  us “The must-have experience for the in-crowd!”   That’s not a bad goal…

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.
