Andrew + Angelica’s Wedding
Below are some of our favorite images from their wedding day celebration earlier this summer. Andrew and Angelica chose to have their ceremony at the Princeton University Chapel, arguably the most visually stunning chapel in Central New Jersey. As a special treat for their guests, the Wafels & Dinges truck came all the way from NYC to feed the hungry wedding crowd. Serving fresh Belgian waffles alongside an assortment of different toppings to choose from, this mid-afternoon treat was a real crowd-pleaser among their guests.
Their wedding day continued with a reception at the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ, a breathtaking sculpture garden certainly worth visiting. Special thanks to Chez Alice of Princeton for catering their wedding- in our humble opinion, some of the best food we’ve had all summer.
Congratulations once again to Angelica and Andrew on their new marriage!

When you are informed that your good friend’s bachelor party is an overnight camping trip, there’s only one thing that you can think about (if you are a photographer, at least…): “Ridiculously awesome lighting possibilities.” Certainly, one could guess that this environment, “the wilderness”, would be on Andrew’s list of top choices for his bachelor party. He’s fond of everything outdoors- blazing campfires, roasted hot dogs, late night conversations, pale ale and good company. We spent the night stoking the campfire with a few good beers, a cuban-seed Don Simon, and planning pranks for whoever went to the nearby outhouse. Earlier, the guys had gone freshwater fishing to no avail. Our plan for the next morning was breakfast (pigs in a blanket, campfire style) and one more try at some fish. Below are some of our favorite images:
Andrew + Angelica’s Engagement
If you’ve spent any time with either of these two, you know that they’re both adventurous, passionate and unique individuals. Angelica’s travels have taken her all around the world, along the way having collected her fair share of interesting experiences and stories (did I mention she brought home a pet cat from her Peace Corps stint in Senegal?). Meanwhile, Andrew would rather be hunting & gathering than watching the newest Brangelina Cruise flick, proudly drives his own “batmobile,” and is pretty famous around here for making tasty lobster feasts. Andrew and Angelica aren’t your typical.. anything. Seriously, I think that’s really what makes them who they are.
Soon after they had gotten engaged, I remember discussing (read: battling) with Andrew about having an engagement session. Angelica was all for having one, but Andrew thought it was unnecessary and just plain silly. When Andrew finally sent me an email, it read: “we thought of something that we’d both be willing to do for an engagement shoot…skeet shooting.” I was sold.
Below is the only proof you need to our shotgun wielding adventures.. and the fact that we were also celebrating their recent engagement. We spent our Sunday evening at Lehigh Valley Sporting Clays (http://www.lvsclays.com/), a shotgun range situated somewhere in Pennsylvania between a bunch of farmland and some highways. Perhaps most enjoyable about this range, besides having numerous stations to shoot clays from, was the fact that much of the range had incorporated an already defunct, dilapidated mill factory. Best of all– when the staff was nowhere in sight– we snuck in to grab a few awesome shots.
Last but not least, pay close attention to the images below. It’s the first time we’ve ever imbedded a “.gif” file into our blog.
Congratulations again to Andrew & Angelica, and we’re looking forward to celebrating (and photographing) your wedding with next you summer.
