My Weblog: Julieta & Jafe Wedding

A few weeks back I got to shoot a fantastic wedding at Tribeca Rooftop in Manhattan, NYC. Here's some of my favorite shots. Of course there's more through the link at the bottom of the post.

Julieta getting her make up and hair prepared at a suite in the beautiful Tribeca Grand Hotel in Tribeca.

Putting on her veil.

Getting into her gown. Julieta had a custom designed couture gown. The lace from the gown was over 44 years since it was taken from her mom's wedding gown and sewn into her gown.

Her mom helping out.

I took some portraits of the beautiful bride in the gorgeous hotel lobby.

Jafe getting ready with the help of his best man.

Toasts.

Jafe's best man gave a hilarious toast. One funny story was about their first trip to Jones Beach.

Julieta's brother gave a sincere toast about Julieta's determination to succeed at becoming a chef and opening up a restaurant in NYC.

Cake cutting.

Jafe's grandmother gave a speech.

The awesome entertainment was provided by The Bud Maltin Orchestra. I've worked with Bud and his band on so many wedding jobs and it's still always exciting to hear them play. Here Bud is singing a Rolling Stones tune.
