As we were going through these photos, we actually encountered a small, teeny, tiny issue. When we usually cull our images for blogging, we try to keep it to 50 of our best images because we know most of you have an attention span that lasts about 20 images – the extra 30 we just throw in for good measure :). Â Problem here was, when we were finally finished culling, we had to make an executive decision on a pool of 120 awesome-tastic images…because this wedding was just that seriously, ridiculously awesome! So after some hesitant clicks here and there, we finally present to you: Margot and Alex’s awesome-ramas wedding celebration at the Eventi Hotel in New York City!
Their day started at the penthouse suite, which offered magnificent views of midtown Manhattan and some of the best natural light we’ve ever seen.

It’s official: The Eventi is definitely one of my fave places to photograph weddings! WOWOWOW!!!!
One of my favorite shots of the day :).
Did I also forget to mention, their engagement session images ended up on a gimungo billboard across the street?! KA-CHOW!!

There should be a rule that you’re not allowed to make the photographer cry. Goodness gracious, I’ve got a job to do here, people!
PS. Great job, you two :).
 I was so tired, I didn’t even bother removing the battery pack. Here ya go, second-shooter, lol.
And the cherry on top of this wedding celebration? Some photo-booth fun!!!

I’m not sure how it happened, but it’s Friday already (egads!). And apparently, there’s a Frankenstorm heading our way. Of all places where a tropical hurricane and an arctic cold front could possibly meet, why does it have to be NJ? And according to the interwebs, we folks in NJ don’t call it a Frankenstrom…we just call it a “Frigg’n Storm”. Ha-ha. Get it?
Oh never mind.
We’ve got one wedding and two engagements lined up these next 3 days. Of them is going to need an umbrella. That’s all I’m say’n :).
Have a great weekend everyone!
Ben & Karis
