Katharine + Jennifer, Asbury Park wedding photographer

Ladies and gentlemen; the brides are approaching the starting gate… and they’re off! We were super excited when Jennifer & Katharine came into the studio and told us that A. they planned to get married B. that the ceremony would happen on the beach, in front of their reception hall, McLoone’s Supper Club in Asbury Park and C. that they wanted their First Look to take place at the fabulous Monmouth Park Race Track! We were not just excited, in fact, we were chomping at the bit! (sorry) : ) And just like the rest of this couple’s wedding day, both the reveal and the portraits at the track delivered all of the joy that they promised! We had a clue that all of this fun would be coming, though. Just the year before, we had photographed the wedding of Michael Canning and Jennamarie DeVito.. that’s where we met Jen & Katharine. (You can see that wedding by clicking HERE if you like.) During that wedding, we ran roughshod all over Asbury Park and Red Bank doing portraits of the bride and groom and Katharine & Jen were on the very short list of friends (2 to be exact) who got to spend the day riding on the trolly with the bridal party. Good friends that they are, they ran that entire race with us, attending to the bride and groom here and there and sharing in the revelry. Then, quite memorably, they spent the rest of that night partying like there was no tomorrow! This was a good indicator to us that Jen & Katharine’s wedding would be another unforgettable fun fest from beginning to end and they certainly did not disappoint! The excitement and anticipation as each girl got ready for the big day was palpable; the reveal, incredibly intimate: the ceremony, positively touching for all; the reception, pure, unbridled FUN! Well, this race has just begun and the finish line is no where in sight! When the other runners are friends and family, everybody wins! Liz and I wish you both all of the best in the years to come! Thank you both so much for including us… Ceremony – Asbury Park beach Reception McLoone’s Supper Club, Asbury Park Flowers – Sunset Florist and Bride’s Mom wedding Invitation – Minted Wedding Cake – The Chocolate Carousel Ceremony + Reception Entertainment – This is it!
