It is always an honor for us to photograph a wedding… but it was extra special to be there to support our cousin Nikki, as she married the man of her dreams in upstate New York. And what a wedding it was! With a church ceremony followed by a spectacular reception on the shores of Lake Delta, we felt lucky to be there!
Getting ready to be married!
Coming down the aisle of the church with her dad… beautiful.
Steve waiting for their arrival.
A beautiful old church. What a wonderful location for a ceremony.
Nikki’s sister sang beautifully at the ceremony. What a gift!
The big kiss!
Coming back down to the aisle. Husband and wife.
Real joy… captured immediately after the ceremony concluded.
A simple, but beautiful detail: Nikki’s veil. Gorgeous.
We took to the golf cart for about 10 minutes of photos, just as the sun was setting.
Timeless and beautiful.
Fading light… just as the sun sets, and moments before their introductions to the reception.
Hand in hand: their first dance as husband and wife.
There was no trouble getting people out on the dancefloor.
Freshly made donuts during the reception. They were incredible (we had to try them), and had to wonder why everyone doesn’t do this at their wedding reception! Great idea!
We also brought our photo booth along so guests could leave photo messages for Steve and Nikki.
Let’s just say folks got creative with their photos.
A+ to the guy in the tux doing John Travolta. A++ to the guy with the chicken who needed to quench his thirst at the very moment that the flash bulbs went off!
More creativity.
We never cease to be amazed by wedding guests and a photobooth.
The mustaches were a big hit.
Nikki and Steve: THANK YOU for having us at your wedding. THANK YOU for coordinating your dates with our insane schedule… we were so honored to be there, to celebrate with you, and to support both amazing families. Have fun on your Croatian honeymoon!! You deserve it!

Kiki Hinman - Brian, you are a MASTER of your craft! We love the photos: the traditional, the candids, the shots of the bride & groom, everything! You were so easy to be with throughout the day and the final results are spectacular! We couldn’t be happier. Everyone loved the “photobooth” and the pictures are priceless. What can I say? We love you! Kiki
John Huntzinger - Can’t wait to see more of the photos. It was a wonderful wedding and you did an amazing job catching the energy on film. Thank you for taking all the extra family photos requested and for having a great eye for candid shots. Your pictures will be a constant reminder of that day for years to come.
Streeter - WOw, the first shot you have is spectacular. I love the doughnuts! What a fun and yummy treat for all guests and a creative personal touch. Once again Bran, you captured it “all”! They are so fortunate to have these photos for the rest of their happily married lives!
