Jessica & Andy’s Engagement Session

John @ JargaPix — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 07:13:38 +0000

After a short hiatus, I have returned to post a flurry of events then “POOF” disappear again like a virgin on prom night… quick! What movie was that line from??

I recall that Jessica called me almost 2 years before her wedding and asked if she was calling to early. I lied and said, “No”. Jessica and Andy stopped in my studio and we had a great, relaxed meeting. We touched on many topics besides their big day. I was super psyched when I got the call that I was their choice! They are a laid back, down to earth couple who are going to be so easy to work with and evoke that desire to go above and beyond your normal service.

Two years seems like a long time to wait but flash (Ahhahh savior of the universe) forward a year and it’s time for their engagement shoot. Andy courted Jessica @ Montclair State University and won her over with his dashing good looks and dream blue eyes (check the images…dreamy) so it was there that the photo session would take place. We walked around campus while snapping some images and talked about how cool Andy was & how lucky Jessica is…or was it the other way around? How about both are true. Here are some images from the evening…

I’m pretty sure it’s illegal in most states to have a couple with eyes like these…

Andy was shoing us the LightBulb dance. I think he plans on busting it out during their 1st dance…

Sweet couple. I think they are gonna make it. As we took this last image, we talked about how before they know it, BLAM! The wedding day is here! Funny how time flies when your having fun. Check out the video of their shoot below.

Now, for you photog blog stalkers out there, I know what you’re thinking…Damn, that’s some sweet light. Yes, we had a nice overcast day which yielded clean ambient light. Fill & accent light was triggered via Pocket Wizards Flex System. They are a pretty awesome system. Much gratitude goes out to Josh Lynn & Neil van Niekerk for their assistance in my growth as a photog. A special thanks goes out to my lighting assistant Michelle Edgerton this day & Point Break for that awesome line.

Until next time…

Me Fui!

Josh & Megan are a great down to earth couple whose wedding promises to be as fantastic as them. We spent the late evening strolling around Hoboken finding cool spots to stop & snap some frames. Here are a few from the evening.

Super fun session! I’ll be posting their Wedding Images very soon!

Kevin & Rondella’s Engagement Session

I met Kevin in the complex where I used to live. When he found out that I was a Photographer he said he’d call me when he was getting married. Sure enough he was true to his word. He called me a few months ago and told me the good news. We scheduled an Engagement Session after finalizing their Wedding plans. Kevin & Rondella had a wonderful day for their E-Session. Here are a few of the images we took @ Hudson County Park in North Bergen, NJ.

They are a great couple and we had a lot of fun taking these images. Stay tuned for the Wedding images coming soon!

Kenny & Linda Engagement

Yet another post, I’m on a roll folks… Way back in May Linda contacted me about doing their Wedding. I was of course delighted and we met a month before to do some Engagement pics so that Kenny would warm up to the camera. Kenny fingers do most of the talking, six string talking that is… more about Kenny later. Kenny & Linda took me to their favorite place. A hidden Gem of a Park in the Madness that is Fort Lee by the GW bridge. The name is Allison Park & I can’t tell you where it is, but seek and you shall find. Here are some pics of that wonderful Spring Day…

Stay Tuned for Pics from their Wedding which was @ another beautiful little hidden Gem in Northern Jersey…

Until next time.
