Waterside Restaurant Wedding – Alex & Jamel

It seems like it’s been a never ending snowstorm in NY! Week after week, the snow just kept coming and would not stop! As and a result, the snow just kept piling up. But the snow and cold temps did not dampen the spirits of Alex & Jamel. They took everything in stride. Even when it came time to go outside and do a couple portraits, the snow and ice didn’t bother them, they welcomed it! That’s what I love about Alex & Jamel, they are able to roll with it. And their wedding was a pretty awesome time! They both danced up a storm on the dance and are probably 1 of the best dancing couple that I’ve photographed!

Christina & Grega’s Grounds for Sculpture Wedding

Looking to keep their wedding small and unique, Christina & Grega went looking for a venue that was different from everything else that they have seen in the greater NYC area. Their search turned up an awesomely unique venue that is pretty much a photographer’s dream venue, in the Grounds for Sculpture. It has so many great little spots here and there that are awesome for photos and served as a wonderful backdrop for their wedding. And you’ll probably have to take my word for that. Due to the policy of the Grounds for Sculpture, we are not permitted to post any photo that has a sculpture contained within the image.

As for the wedding day, everything pretty much went off without a hitch and that’s due to the impeccable planning of Christina. And it was such a small and intimate affair that Grega and Christina were really able to enjoy every little moment and spend time with all of their guests, which consisted of only their closest friends and family.

I truly enjoyed photographing everything about this wedding. And that’s not just because the venue was cool, but Christina and Grega are such a great couple that were so easy to work with and were so many little things that made this wedding so wonderful. I mean, Pez dispensers as a giveaway? I’m probably going to steal that idea.

NOTE: Due to the policy of the Grounds for Sculpture, we are not permitted to post any photo that has a sculpture clearly contained within the image. Therefore, you will see very few photos of the actual ceremony, as it was held in a garden of sculptures.

It was a perfect match, you could just feel it. There was chemistry. There was a bond over talks about hockey and the Devils and Rangers…. wait… um… that was me and Benjamin. I got along so well with this great couple Jennifer and Benjamin, that we all nerded out about the same stuff during their engagement shoot. And I couldn’t be happier for such a great couple. Their laughs & love are so genuine and pure, it makes you feel really good inside. Congratulations to Jennifer and Benjamin!!!

central park engagement shoot – jennifer & ben

Jennifer and Ben are a great match for each other! As they are both a little geeky and slightly nerdy in their own unique ways. Even during the shoot, Ben felt compelled to break out his phone to see which constellations would be visible later that evening and Jennifer was just as excited. Check out the picture below. This is the kind of (geeky) love that we dig! Because deep down inside, we at Esvy Photography are also geeky/nerdy, too!

Hilary & Rob’s Wedding – Allaire Village, NJ

For most people, when they hear the words “simple” and “wedding”, they think of your average, vanilla, plain jane wedding. Well we’ve got news for you: sometimes simplicity brings out something quite unique to the table. Hilary and Rob went this route for their big day, and it began and ended in stunning fashion. The awesomeness was apparent as soon as the guests arrived to the amazing site of the Historic Chapel in Allaire Village, and perpetuated into the afternoon at their reception in the newly re-vitalized Asbury Park Boardwalk. Unlike your modern boardwalk, Asbury Park drops hints of classic America, making it undoubtedly awesome.

Heels: Pink Paradox London
Hair: Ellie at Innervision
Make Up: Diana DaSilva
Ceremony: Chapel at the Historic Village of Allaire
Reception: Tim McLoone’s Supper Club in Asbury Park
