It’s become common for us to go to New York more than once in a year for our couples. Almost every year we either shoot a New York wedding or a New York engagement session. I’m going to put it out there into the Instagram world and Blog world that I’d LOVE to shoot an engagement session in Central Park at the Zoo! Yes please! So if you know anyone, send them our way! Oh and with some of the Plaza in the background please!!

Anyway, Marisa and Kris hired us for their Maryland wedding but being both from New York, it was only fitting to photograph these lovebirds in the state they met, at a GORGEOUS historic state park near Chris’ home.

2006 in Tulsa Oklahoma. I think that’s the year we met. Halie and I have been friends for over 10 years!!!

We were roommates in college, we took adventures together, spent hours and days together talking, crying, praying, dreaming, and hoping for things to come. We prayed for our husbands, prayed for careers, prayed for dreams and aspirations to become realities. Little did we know when we would graduate what the future would hold.

Halie was in our wedding in 2013, and the last time I saw her was on our Honeymoon a week later in Florida.

In the summer of 2018 Halie and Jonathan got engaged and invited us to their July 2019 Florida wedding as guests and we were so pumped. We haven’t been guests to a wedding in years, literally. Later in the year, Halie called me to let me know they were not only moving their wedding to New York, but to December, the week of Christmas. Of course we would be there, and I knew we would be there in whatever capacity she wanted!
