[Wedding] Kelly & Rob – Neshanic Valley Golf Course, Neshanic Station, NJ

One of the most common (and somewhat amusing) things I’ve seen as a wedding photographer who provides full day coverage is the frantic running of the bridesmaids when they realize I’ve arrived on site. When I tell my clients that much of the action happens before the first look, this isn’t exactly what I meatn – but I can certainly understand unintentional connection :). The reason why we begin so early is because I’m a firm believer that a wedding day comprises of the entire day in the life of these two individuals, and it doesn’t start just moments before their first look or when the bride’s about to put on her dress. It starts the moment the bride and groom wake up that morning and realize they’re going to be committing themselves to that one special person for the rest of their lives. The emotions and mental preparation that swirl inside their heads as they go on through the motions of their morning routine, ironing their clothes and consuming copious amounts of mimosas coffee in anticipation of one of the most momentous occasion in their lives, is exactly why/what we’re there that early to capture. These feelings and expressions are raw, uncensored, and remembered forever. We’re just there to make sure it stays that way :).

Kelly and Rob’s wedding also officially kicked off the unofficial countdown of the birth of our second Lil Monster. Much to everyone’s relief (as we all presently know), he didn’t arrive while his daddios was out shooting a wedding :).

Congrats again, you two lovebirds! We hope you enjoy these images as much as we enjoyed capturing them. We had a blast, and it looks like you did too :).
