During my two week trip, I got to attend one of my good friend’s wedding out in the east coast. James and I were roommates for three years in college so we had lot of memories together. It was sad as we parted our ways after college but I believe that sometimes being apart tests the bond and strength of a true friendship. Whenever we get together I feel like we pick up right where we left off.
This time, I wore the hat of being the “uncle bob.” The couple decided to hire another photographer because he wanted me to just enjoy the wedding. But that’s like telling a bird not to fly and just enjoy the view. 
James is a special friend of mine so I decided to snap a few photos for him. As my friend/mentor Becker describes it, I became “the family member with a fancy camera” at this wedding.
The celebration took place at the Pleasantdale Chateau. This beautiful mansion is a hidden gem located in the heart of West Orange, NJ. 
A quick rehearsal before the real thing…

James couldn’t keep his eyes off her

John and Semi – can’t wait to cover their wedding in June out in Philly! 
Even though I had just met Grace, it didn’t take me long at all to figure out that they were perfect for each other. Congratulations guys!
