ROCHESTER NY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHS : EASTMAN MUSEUM : THE STRATHALLAN : KELSEY + JEFF

Crushing on these photos.  Note that I do not use the term ‘crushing’ often.  Nor do I use ‘totes’.  [Hardly ever.]  …but in the case of Kelsey & Jeff’s Rochester, NY Wedding – I am totes crushing.

Kelsey and Jeff had – in my opinion – the quintessential kick-ass Rochester NY Wedding.  The ceremony was held in the historic George Eastman Museum Gardens with a dinner and dancing to follow at the Strathallan Rooftop Restaurant.  Sprinkle in summer weather perfection, some killer threads, a sunset to die for AND an epic dance party and well, the ROC showed its potential that night.  I am so happy for these two.  They are my friends.  They are good people – from the inside on out to the people that surround them.  Their day was unforgettable.  Happy ever-after, Kelsey & Jeff!

I worked with some pretty amazing talent this day: Jim Dolan – who shared his photo skills and endearing wit throughout.  Adam aka. DJ A-Live – from Breakthrough Entertainment – the BEST in the business.  Stacy K Floral for the floral magic she does.  Ashley and the crew at the Strath – what an awesome venue.

This past season was a particularly busy one.  In the interest of fulfilling client agreements, I focused my efforts on turning work around thoroughly and quickly – yielding an average 2-week turnaround time on 29 wedding commissions (high five – me).  The rest of my time went into parenting.  It was a beautiful – and beautifully busy – summer.  What I didn’t realize was how rewarding it would be to afford myself distance from the work.  As I return to it now that the pace has slowed, it is new.  …and all-together refreshing.  This feeling stands to reinforce my notion that the best part about Wedding Photographs is that they get better with time.  Enjoy, friends.  Best atcha.
