Katherine + Jonathan @ Casa del Sol

Great day with great people –I shot Katherine’s sister’s wedding about 18 mos ago. So good to be back with her family and to meet Jonathan’s family.

Costa del Sol in Union, NJ did a great job and I loved all the greenery around for photography!

All the best,

NJ Barn Wedding Photography

I came across this post detailing barn wedding venues in New Jersey. Some of these I had not heard of before –I have only shot weddings at 2 of the 17. Posting here in the hopes that you, my future clients, will change that in short order.

Danielle + Chris @ David’s Country Inn

It was great being back at David’s for Danielle and Chris’s wedding. On hand with me was the great @JedSmithPhotography on 2nd shooting and @MatthewDylanMedia as videographer.


Lots of fun at this wedding including a fake 1st look!


If I wanted dreamy expressions from Danielle + Chris all I had to do was have them look at each other. They are so sweet together!

The beautiful interior of David's Country Inn in Hackettstown NJ. Beautiful bride basking in beautiful lighting. Beautiful off the shoulder bridesmaid dress. Night time photo outside David's Country Inn.

This crowd was so much fun and lots of sweet, touching moments too. Danielle provided our 1st cake smash of the year –Chris was certainly surprised!


Thanks for having us!

Sarah is the last of the Murray siblings. I have shot ALL of their weddings, Sarah + Nick’s twice for good measure. Sarah + Nick decided to have an outdoor family wedding in her brother’s backyard and push the big party off until 2021!


It is pretty wonderful showing up to a wedding where everyone, knows, likes and trusts you. Lots of hugs!!


We were excited to shoot at Rock Island Lake Club as it has a stellar reputation and is a beautiful venue!

We shot the 1st look lake side (where a groomsman caught a large mouth bass!) and then head into the woods for the swing.

Rain threatened but we were able to take B&G photos and head inside as rain drops just started dotting the ground.


We had a wonderful ceremony conducted by a friend, and the most beautiful bride and groom speeches. There were few dry eyes including one or two of mine.


Late that night it hit me that this was the last Murray wedding. It has been so much fun and been so wonderful being there for you guys…but I am gonna miss you!


Best,


Tom

Amanda + Chris’s Warwick NY Wedding!

Amanda + Chris had an amazing wedding at Château Hathorne in Warwick, NY yesterday. I met Amanda and Chris 8 years ago at Steph + Randy’s wedding! It was good to see them again –and their two boys! I hadn’t been to the Château before –stunning grounds and charming inside. Great food and staff!

Amanda + Chris had postponed their wedding twice so we were psyched to finally get it on!

Château Hathorne was where Chris popped the question to a resounding YES!

It was good to be shooting a wedding again and better still to be amidst a group of vaccinated friends and family. It was a hot day but quite perfect. Thank you guys for inviting me!

Casey & Chris’s Forever Session in Newport, RI

I shot Casey’s sister Laura’s wedding in 2018 and so was delighted when Casey contacted me to shoot her wedding in 2022. In fact we shot the eSession on her sister’s 4th wedding anniversary!


Casey & Chris wanted their forever session in Newport, RI where they met as chefs at the Castle Hill Inn. We had a rainy day but that seemed fitting for this seaside town this time of year.


The rain let up a half hour before sunset letting us dry-up and bathe in sunlight! Looking forward to Casey + Chris at The Mill Lakeside Manor.

Sarah + Nick’s Backyard Wedding

Sarah is the 3rd sibling in the Murray family who’s wedding I shot! How awesome is that?!


Sarah & Nick were to get married at Rock Island Lake Club this summer but had to push the wedding out to 2021.  As their original wedding date drew near they decided to still get married that day and have a big party in 2021. Sarah’s brother Chris and his wife Kristen (past clients) had the wedding in their back yard with only family and close friends.


It was a sweet and wonderful day and I am looking to more fun in 2021 including Sarah’s brother Jeff’s killer cover of Sweet Child O Mine!


Love,

Vivian + Vincent’s Staten Island Wedding

I loved Vivian & Vincent and the feeling must have been mutual as they immediately hired me to shoot their wedding.

The wedding went through a few evolutions until it became a wedding at the Staten Island Wedding Bureau with family and close friends followed by a party a few days later at LiGreci’s in Staten Island.


Great fun a big love and wonderful families.


I am blessed to be able to do what I do!




Thanks for everything and hope to see you at more Staten Island weddings!

Andrea + James at The Elan

Andrea kept her word and on 19-JAN-2020 I shot Andrea + James’s wedding at The Elan (www.theelan.com) in Lodi, NJ. I had never been to The Elan before and

Andrea + James were jubilant  –I was so happy to be there for them! I love when my night ends with hugs from my clients.

Amy + Jed’s New Jersey Winery Wedding

Jed is my second shooter and a good friend. I was happy to shoot his surprise engagement to Amy in Central Park, a Save the Date Session in Hoboken (where Amy bought me my 1st Bloody Mary!) and at last their Winery Wedding in Cape May NJ. it was great to see past wedding clients, Dan + Kristina, Mike + Kasey and Juan (Diana had to watch Mia).

Wedding was full of lover and energy. Jed and Amy have peculiar if endearing dance styles and clearly we made for each other.

Love them dearly!

Sarah + Gary’s Somerville Wedding Photos


Sarah + Gary’s
wedding was an epic affair in Somerville, NJ featuring the best playlist of
any wedding I have ever attended! Kudos to Jack of LjDj’s for keeping us
rocking! Sarah + Gary literally jumped the broom, a table
centerpiece was filled (and re-filled) with beer and passed around,
Wiccan elements in the ceremony, talk of D&D, and a bridesmaid
channeling Eowyn #iamnoman

A great day w great people some who I have
seen at 3 weddings now! Also down the line is a case of home brew (Raisin’ Hell!  from
best man Greg.

Hoping we can share one in my backyard this fall!

Cape May Wedding Photographers

Shot Megan + Johnny’s wedding at Meadow Creek Farm Weddings this weekend. Had these photos posted late last night on Facebook within 22 hours of the wedding's end Saturday night.

One of those unusual weddings where I did not meet the bride and groom before their wedding as Megan's brother Greg met with and hired me. Greg has seen me shoot the weddings of 2 of his friends and made sure I was free for his sister's wedding!

Megan + Johhny were the best  –so relaxed and easy to work with! They trusted our judgment and had faith in our vision.

Small wedding with a BIG love. Family and tightly-knit friends. Laughter and tears!


Our first time at Meadow Creek Farm Weddings. 2.5 hour drive but worth every second great people and amazing customer service. I hope we get invited back!


Best,


Tom

Wedding in NJ’s Mountains

Lara + Ray happened in Walpack, NJ yesterday with a quick side trip (on a terribly rutted road) to Layton, NJ for some photos at Buttermilk Falls. 

I have long-wanted to get to shoot a wedding in the Rockies –this is as close as I can get in NJ!

Lara’s sister Jenny contacted me <2 weeks before the wedding. They were referred by Bonna + Rich. Bonna is Lara’s cousin –they grew up together.

The fields of gold where we shot these photos are the backyard Lara and her sister Jenny grew up in. There are MANY beautiful spots to take photos in and near Walpack but what better place than your home. Thanks for pointing this out Jenny!

 


1st Wedding preview gallery posted within 6 hours of the end of the wedding! More images added 1/1/2019


Wedding at the rustic and excellent Walpack Inn. Great food and service!

Wedding dress purchased at L’Fay Bridal in Chatham.

Groom by US Army Rangers!


My last wedding for 2018 sets the stage for 2019. Happy New Year!

Rachel + Brian Marry in New Brunswick

My 3rd wedding at St. Peter’s in New Brunswick! I have shot more weddings in this church than any other! That being said the lighting on the alter is terrible –a totally different color than the light in the rest of the church.


Rachel + Brian were referred by Lisa + Anthony –their second referral. It was good to see them at the wedding –thanks again!


Rachel is an actress and incredible alive in front of the camera. Brian is madly in love and follows her lead.


We had a cute formal session across the street from the church on Rutgers’s property. Such a pretty spot. Rachel brought along a yellow umbrella an homage to How I met your Mother.


The reception  was at the Pantagis Renaissance –home of great service and food.

All the best to you guys. Lisa + Anthony –please keep the referrals coming!


All the best,


Thomas
