So while we were in New York, shooting Michelle and Steve’s wedding, we had the honor of meeting Johnny Maestro and the Brooklyn Bridge, the Doo Wop, R&B, Pop, Rock band from Long Island, NY.   The groom’s dad is the first tenor for the group and band manager, Les Cauchi, and you’ll know them by their hits, “Sixteen Candles” and “The Worst That Could Happen”, just to name a few.  The wedding guests were all up on their feet as the group sang and erupted in applause as they finished up. What a night!

Here are some images from the reception. You’ll see Mr. Cauchi’s grandchildren keeping the doo wop style alive as they dance to the music!  He sang to them with this smile and glitter in his eye that will not soon by forgotten.

So we were asked to fly out to New York to shoot Michelle and Steven’s wedding and what an amazing time we had! I asked Charise of photographybycharise.com to second shoot and was blessed to have such a fabulous photographer join me on Long Island for this 13 hour event. (We missed Stella TERRIBLY though, maybe next time, right?!)

We don’t often shoot weddings due to our busy schedules but this one was an absolute must because Michelle’s not only a fantastic person and beautiful friend, she’s my cousin and we both had similar ideas as to how the photography would done ~ and I’m so happy we did this together. She and Steve were stunning, along with their precious Mia as flower girl. Thank you both for allowing us in to your lives for the week and for trusting us with all the details of capturing your wedding day.
