My first destination wedding. Very small, laid back couple. I had a very relaxed pace most of the time there. Maybe like 20 guests. The couple originally booked me for my hometown, bride got sick, cancelled, then rescheduled for the original date but at this resort. Limited getting ready shots. Groom not interested in them, bride had just a handful of 'em. No dancing, no DJ, just cake cutting and a lovely 5-star, 3 course meal and good convo with the guests.

Resort sat in a cloud all day, drizzly, misting, windy (!) and gray. Most shots were done inside. Not lacking for tons of spots to shoot though, this hotel is huge. 140 years old, they give you keys to the rooms; most have fireplaces for heat, and complete with the wavy wooden floors .

Equipment used: 5DMkII, 40D, 16-35L, 24L, 35L, 50/1.4, 85/1.8, 200/2LIS (not shown here, weird), flashes, strobes. C&C welcome.

1 pumpkin in the background FTW, shot on halloween after all

13 wedding coordinator hooked us up with room access. A shot where an actual t/s used for its intended purpose would've helped.

I'll agree with Sam on all of the above. That first shot is really excellent Andrew.

Andrew - you have really hit your sweet spot in the last few months. It's like you've made this enormous leap! The work is rock solid. Love 10.

Agreed, that 10 is fantastic. The rest are solid as well, good mixture of PJ, details, and posed.

Absolutely-10 is just beautiful!
I'm wearing a squirrel outfit to the next wedding that I shoot. The crowd, clearly, loves it.

Yeah squirrel outfit FTW.

I'm a little embarrassed for the love for #10, I think it's a 'good' photo but not 'great'. I actually like 11 more ha!

Maybe I should post the vertical crop I did of #10.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement and kind words. This was wedding #35 for me counting 2nd shooter assignments. I have a pro's equivalent of 1 year done even though it took me 3

Andrew, I find the set to sort of be quietly emotional. Love it. I would agree one of your best to date. What is the location?

10 is much better. The colors, the couple, the mood, the composition, it really works. 11 is nice but you don't have the emotion of 10.

Oh yeah, and 10 is poster, dude. They are al right. Take it. Print it. Put it on your home page.

10 is amazing!

What makes 10 so awesome is it has a vintage feel which goes perfectly with the couple and their outfits. It's a shot I never would have thought of. I just gasped when I saw it. Very nice indeed.

11 is really cool, but there isn't quite enough separation to tell that it's two people - not your fault, it's just the one element that is missing.

Awesome shoot. Man, what an incredible venue! I love destination weddings.

This was in mineymole's backyard - I photographed the wedding in New Paltz- the blog link explains where. Definitely gives you that "old money" feel you sometimes get in certain parts of NYC. Check out the room rates.. yikes.
