Even a rock concert and a blockaded Central Park couldn’t slow down a New York couple like Melissa and Joe on their wedding day.  Parts of the park were closed off for the Bon Jovi concert that day, but a friendly and accomodating NYC cop let us sneak in for formal photos before the wedding.  After the ceremony we moved to the Boathouse in Central Park for their reception and a great party.

Even though we had planned a more romantic First Look meeting between Melissa and Joe somewhere deeper in Central Park, because of the concert, access wasn’t easy, and they actually bumped into each other on the way there.

Melissa and Joe, thank you for having me as your photographer on your wedding day – and best wishes for your future together.
