Doral Arrowwood Wedding:  Colleen + Eric

Colleen and Eric got married at beautiful Doral Arrowwood – they traveled all the way from Texas to get married up here in beautiful Rye Brook, New York. So maybe their wedding could be considered a destination wedding. Prior to their wedding, they flew up earlier this year (in May) for an engagement session in DUMBO, Brooklyn. These two were full of stunning surprises. Eric is a professional baritone and is a professionally trained Mezzo Soprano. Their family members and friends are also highly talented singers that have a reputation of bringing any crowd at Karaoke bars to its knees.  During the beginning of the reception, as they were about to commence their first dance, they picked up microphones and addressed the baffled crowd: “We don’t dance” they said nonchalantly.  The music background music starts playing and they start singing “The Prayer” as a duet that would have easily challenged Josh Grobane and Celine Dion. Everyone in the ballroom was driven to tears. Apparently, Colleen and Eric do dance and so do their friends (some amazing ballroom dancers). As I’m writing this, they just returned from their honeymoon in Costa Rica. My hope is that the images that I captured will help this beautiful duet relive their fairytale again and again.

Special thanks to my good friend and fellow Foundation classmate Jide Alakija who flew back from London to second shoot with me.  It wouldn’t have been possible without you my friend!
