DOWNTOWN WEDDING IN BUFFALO PART 1

Kristine and Andy were married July 16th! Yes, 716! They are huge sports fans. So, you are probably thinking, they definitely had photos done at 716 Restaurant. You are right! But, I am not showing you that today.

This is one of my favorite buildings in Buffalo. I would always see it, but Neal and I were never able to use it for photos. We were actually shooting around Coca Cola Field, and I was looking around a saw it across the street. We had to go! It is part of Erie County Community College

We put Kristine and Andy in one of the archways and had them have a nice moment. I shot this from across the street as well. Good thing there wasn't much traffic either. We were already pressed for time and only had 5 minutes before we had to be back to Pearl Street for the reception!

GUYS AT CANALSIDE

Take a look at Ramin and his guys! They look awesome!

Rose and Ramin got married in December and it was a pretty cold day. The wedding party sure did tough it out though! And to add to the cold, it was super windy as well. They wanted to go down near the ice rink at canal side Buffalo for photos. 

This area was great for the guys. They had a little climbing to do, but they all looked so manly. We gave them some space and told them to look cool! We only said that to see what kind of reaction we would get from them. Guys will not admit it, but they enjoy being in the spotlight as well! I think they all did a great job too!

Kevin & Jeffrey are electric!!

I had to show another image from Kevin and Jeffrey's wedding! I can't get over how amazing these two studs photographed!

We did Kevin and Jeffrey's photos before the ceremony with just the two of them. This allowed us to do a "Tour of Buffalo" for their photos. We started at Niagara Square, then drove to other areas of downtown Buffalo and jumped out of the car for more! One of our stops was in front of the Electric Tower. There was actually a lot of construction going on in this area with bright orange cones and signs. We assured Kevin and Jeffrey, that it wouldn't be in the photo. 

And this was one of the shots! Don't you just love it? It looks like New York City. But, we were so happy that this amazing landmark building is in Buffalo. The architecture in Buffalo is amazing and we were so excited to take advantage of some of these locations with Kevin and Jeffrey! And to top it off, we had these two amazingly handsome guys to photograph there.

EXCITEMENT IN BABEVILLE!

Wow! I know what you’re thinking, “A guy with a sword at a wedding”. How crazy is that?  Well, it did happen, among some other amazing things.

This reception was one for the books. It took place at Asbury Hall in Buffalo, also known as “Babeville”. The Bride and Groom had the guests sitting on the edge of their seats. The couple are very into the arts. The Bride is a belly dancer that travels all over performing. The Groom is a videographer that films many of these performances and helps bring them to life.

It all started before we even got out of the car at Babeville. In the parking lot, there were fire twirlers, also called POI. It was amazing to see in the middle of a downtown Buffalo parking lot. We could only imagine what the rest of the night would be like. During the announcement of the bridal party, there were belly dancers leading the way. Then during dinner, the lights dimmed and out came performers using neon light hoola hoops and swinging around neon light ropes. The reception hall was glowing. And just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, a guy with a sword comes out. He was swinging them around and doing all sorts of crazy acrobatic moves. People were in awe. You can see the Bride and Groom in the background watching in amazement. I was a bit scared and stayed further back. Neal was all over the dance floor trying not to get sliced by the swords to get some great images. He was head on with the swordsman when he took this shot. What an awesome image! All that was going through my mind was, “Oh my God, don’t slice Neal in half”.
