When we were younger, Liz and I always used to jokingly say to each other that if the day ever came that we ever photographed the wedding of one of our wedding clients children, will know that it’s time for us to retire! Now, after more than 30 years of photographing weddings, that possibility still hangs out there in the universe just waiting to happen. Fear not, however, we will be still doing this work many years from now, no matter what… We love it too much!
What HAS happened however is that the granddaughter of my good friend John Kilpatrick just got married and we were there to capture that amazing day in pictures. It’s all kind of hard for me to believe because I can remember the Mother Of The Bride when she was about five years old. How lucky are Liz and I, that we were here to witness this beautiful day.
When the big day arrived, Katherine and Luke each got ready at their respective homes and were later joined in marriage at Saint James church in Red Bank. The beautiful ceremony was followed by more than a few family pictures and then it was off to the relatively new Park Loft in Oceanport for an amazing reception! Let me just say that The Park Loft does it right! Everyone working there was super attentive and the food was quite amazing and so the family had a really great time, dancing to the band inside of this splendidly cavernous hall! It was such a great choice… exactly what we would expect from that family!
We’ve photographed about 650 weddings now but this one felt different… it felt like spending time with family.
Big thanks to both families for entrusting us to memorialize this big event in pictures! It was so nice to get to see some old friends and get to know John’s granddaughter and her new husband. We feel so lucky! How could we ever retire from this wonderful job?!
