Destination Wedding Photography in Barbados - Kristy + Philip

When it comes to Destination Wedding photography, I am definitely bias since I myself was once a destination wedding bride! Me and my husband were married in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. I remember just being online for hours surfing the web doing research, stalking forums on TheKnot.com and Weddingbee.com, but also making friends with many Destination Wedding (DW) Knotties! If it weren't for them I would have been clueless as to how we would plan a destination wedding. As you can see from Kristy and Philip's images below, destination weddings are just breathtaking. The added perks of a destination wedding is that your backdrop tends to have a lot more scenery and bluer than let's say a NYC Wedding. I love being a NYC wedding photographer, but traveling overseas or event to a different state like Florida, California, Texas and more are also so worth it. You get different scenery and you and your guest can make a vacation out of it! So for every couple that decides to have a destination wedding, my heart is just joyful since I know first-hand how they are feeling, what it took to get to this day and time, and how every planning process was just worth it! I have so many friends who did get married overseas in Mexico, Puerto Rico, The Philippines, and more and each one of them stated it was just worth it. Can't wait to go back to one of the islands! Where will we travel to next to shoot an amazing destination wedding? :-) We love to travel especially in winter!

For Kristy and Philip, their wedding was a dream come true. With their closest friends as witnesses, and with family and friends back in New Jersey, New York, California and England feeling the cold weather, this gorgeous couple said their "I Do's" by the cliffs at The Crane Residential Resort in beautiful, warm, sunny Barbados. This wedding was just amazing with so many DIY crafts and eye candy to behold!  The bride and groom did an amazing job planning every single detail of their wedding, from their invitations, to the DIY programs, stationery cards, photo booth, and so much more. They brought in the services of Ivie Joy Flowers & Events who created a wonderful design of fresh flowers in gorgeous vases that just pop with colors. I'm so happy to have been able to escape winter, even if it was only for a short while, and capture this luxurious wedding in this gorgeous Caribbean island. Being a photographer definitely has its perks! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Philip John!

Speaking of winter, although it's cold outside in NYC, there's nothing like shooting proposals, engagement photos and more in New York City especially near Valentine's Day! One of the best backdrops for any photos. I know wedding planners busy right now preparing for proposal events and aiding nervous groom-to-be for the big day when they say those 4 words...Need ideas for a proposal you're planning? Definitely check out Engagement 101 Magazine! http://www.yourengagement101.com/marriage-proposal-ideas/ One of our couples was recently featured with this article about their real proposal story and again in this article about what to do before your one and only pops the question: http://www.yourengagement101.com/relationships/2012/12/the-8-rules-for-ladies-in-waiting/

NYC Wedding Photography in Queens Jamaica Estates | Mia & Neil Taylor

Congratulations to Carmencita and Neil! The new Mr. and Mrs. Taylor were married on April 13, 2013 in Jamaica Estates, Queens NY. The groom and his father and groomsmen arrived at the church in a limo, but the bride arrived in style in a red sports car with the top down for all of Queens, NY to see! Neil's family are from Michigan, so for the Taylor family, this NYC Wedding is a destination wedding they will always remember! The groom surprised the bride with a few signs he created....yes, Neil was the sweetheart who had the idea of having these gorgeous signs made, especially the "FINISH LINE" sign they walked through during the reception! That was definitely my favorite sign idea and inspiration next to the "He stole my heart/She stole my sandwich" sign! How very creative and such a DIY photo idea for their wedding! After the ceremony the bridal party was off to Gaby's Pizza where Mia and Neil enjoyed their last NYC pizza...for now...since they were moving to Michigan a few days after the wedding. Everyone will of course miss them, but NYC is not saying goodbye to the dynamic duo. We're sure these marathon runners will come back to visit, even if they have to run from Michigan to NY! For those that do not know, Mia and Neil were living in two different states so for their wedding they wanted a "travel" theme to showcase that love does conquer all. The theme was incorporated by Ivie Joy Flowers + Events in the design of the venue, and Mia's sister, Maricar-Joy designed stationary items that showcased a travel theme as well. There is actually a correlation between Mia and Neil's favorite verse in the Bible and their wedding date, 4.13.13: "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us." God has definitely watched over them through their journey and I am sure He is happy to be guiding them further in their newest journey. As you watch Mia and Neil dance to "Lucky" by Jason Mraz, you can feel their love for one another and the sigh of delight to finally be with the one person you are meant to be. We're all very thankful to have witnessed your special day!

Congratulations Mia and Neil! Thank you for allowing Angelica Criscuolo Photography to capture it all!

Here are a few teasers from their wedding! Stay tuned for more!!! There is definitely a lot more eye candy to see!

New York City Wedding Angel Orensanz Foundation - Nicole + Marco - Photographer's Day off

This is a personal blog in which I wanted to share my time enjoying a wedding of one of my closest friends Nicole and her new husband Marco. Lately my husband and I rarely attend weddings since I'm always the one shooting them! The first year my husband and I met in 2008, we went to about 6 weddings. For the first year of dating, he must have wanted to stick around if he liked taking me to weddings! This time around, we dressed up to witness the beautiful union of a friend who has climbed mountains and ran miles in many marathons, to finally run into her one and only. They met while picking up their numbers for a marathon and the rest was history.  Congratulations Nicole and Marco! Your first dance truly depicted your love for one another. Yes, this New York wedding photographer couldn't help but bring her camera...I had to remember the wedding as I saw it!

Oh it's you, I know You're the one I dream of Looks into my eyes Take me to the clouds above

What I feel is really love.

Millbrook New York Wedding Photographer |Hudson Valley DIY photos| Christine + Adam Vintage

I have been waiting to blog this wedding! The new Mr. and Mrs. Fischer are just fabulous together and I'm so happy to have shared in their memories for their NYC engagement photography session and of course their upstate New York wedding photography extravaganza in Millbrook, NY! From beginning until the end the wedding was amazing. I first met Christine and Adam when we shot their engagement photos at the beautiful Conservatory Garden in Central Park. Their story as well as their great personalities and photogenic selves were just an editor's dream that they were also published on Engagement 101's online magazine, YourEngagement101.com. Christine and Adam did such a great job incorporating their personalities into their special day. From all the DIY signs (and there were man!), the vintage floral succulents settings on the table, and from the stars wrapped overhead underneath the tent that held their reception, to their adorable cake with a laser cut likeness of their image, it was all a sight to behold. Definitely a wedding photographer's dream come true! I had the pleasure of working with a fun bride and groom where their top photo must-haves include jumping on a trampoline in their wedding dress and suit, and willing to stand still (forever if they had to) to get the sparkler photos they wanted. The day began in Junto farms a few miles from Charlotte's Restaurant in Milbrook, NY. The grounds were perfect for them since the gorgeous architecture and beautiful scenery were perfect backdrops for this highly fashion-forward bride and groom. Christine's Yoshi Yamamoto's dress was finished with a bird cage veil that showed off her beautiful neckline and Jimmy Choo shoes to die for, and Adam was just dashing in a brown Ted Baker suit, which he finished with a green themed bow-tie that matched the bridesmaid's gorgeous mint green convertible wrap dresses created by Coralie Beaux.After a beautiful first look underneath a canopy of trees, we were off to the gardens for some bridal party portraits, and of course for the bride and groom to jump on the infamous trampoline. After a few laughs, the wedding party traveled the few miles to Charlotte's Restaurant  for their outdoor wedding. The wedding and cocktail areas were just picture perfect. It was a beautiful day and the aisle was decorated in pots or mason jars filled with flowers by Lavender & Leaf Designs.

During the reception, the bride and groom opted to lock a bottle of wine in a gorgeous wooden case with their initials engraved, as opposed to a sand ceremony or candle ceremony. Such a unique idea to look forward to opening on their anniversary! With their written vows, Christine and Adam kissed as man and wife and their journey began with their closest family and friends as witnesses.

The reception area was as spectacular with the vintage feel of the floral arrangements in addition to the signs created by the bride and groom and their entourage. One of the greatest DIY unique ideas I have seen is of Christine and Adam using Mason Jars as escort "cards" and the guest's name and table number were written on the jars. The jars were also favors and Christine and Adam had a vintage sign stating "Find Your Seat & Save Some Treat!" telling guests they should fill their jars with as much candy as they want from the candy bar to take home as favors. We got jars too! Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Fischer!!! We definitely took some lollipops and M&Ms...but I think Matthew filled his jar with just M&Ms :-). He's been eyeing my jar and once in awhile I have to bat him off the goodies!

With the top of the tent filled with strung stars and lights, the reception just illuminated as if we were underneath the stars. The romantic feel,  the fun dancing, in which a little flower girl stole the dance floor, and family and friends just enjoying a beautiful evening just made the end of the first day of the bride and grooms journey memorable.

We ended the night with lighting some sparklers...LOVE was the theme and love was definitely everywhere.

Thank you Christine and Adam for trusting in this New York wedding photographer to capture your fun-filled wedding and all the memories and details. We wish you many blessings and to have more new beginnings and adventures.

Here are a few teasers from their wedding!
