Melissa + Steve – Palm House, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Brooklyn, NY Wedding Photos

April 19th, 2011

2011 is set to be an amazing year – and if you have a wedding with us know that you are such a huge part of what gets us out of bed with a smile on our face, and keeps us up late at night discussing camera settings and portrait ideas. We talk a lot about how much we love everyone we photograph, and we think it is the best part of our jobs. When you get to work with people that you genuinely enjoy being around, at beautiful locations during some of the most important moments in their lives, it gives a little tickle down our backs. While the majority of our blogging in 2011 has been through the photography of newborns and babies (hooray for spring and the blossoming of life!), we are delighted to present our first wedding of the year – the stunningly gorgeous union of Melissa & Steve, and all of the details surrounding their day. From their first look on the Brooklyn Bridge, to their emotional ceremony at the majestic St. Ignatius Loyola church in Manhattan, and finishing with the blossoming trees at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and reception at the Palm House. It was all marvelously put together by Melissa and orchestrated day of by Nina Mercedes of Markz and Co., and we just got out of the way and observed. Melissa and Steve looked so amazing, and we are obsessed with Melissa’s Pnina Tornai gown from Kleinfeld. Here are some of our favorite moments of the day.

Reception: Palm House, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Brooklyn, NY
Day of Coordinator: Nina Mercedes, Events by Markz & Co

Melissa, when we met with you in your apartment in NYC a year ago, and heard you tell us about your plans for your wedding, we knew it would be every bit as beautiful as it turned out to be. Steve, we had a great time with you and your groomsmen, and know that the two of you will find the road ahead of you in California clear to travel to your next amazing moments in your lives together.

xoxo,
Vicki + Erik
