Kristina & Jason at Erlowest on Lake George (Albany wedding photographer)
Seems like a great time to take a short trip back in time, don’t you think? Nothing too dramatic, just to a time when the sun was warm and the world was still nice and green! Late September in the southern Adirondacks is a spectacular time, and Kristina & Jason’s wedding day was great not just for the weather, but for every aspect of the day. We started at Kristina’s parents’ really beautiful log home, overlooking Dome Island in Lake George. After making it up the fairly treacherous road to the house, it was a little bit like finally making it to heaven! I’m still trying to figure out how the mega-stretch Escalade from Royale Limousine made it up there…or down for that matter!
Inside, we met up with some of our favorite wedding colleagues in the area. First, ace wedding planner Shannon Whitney–she’s the owner of Wedding Planning Plus, and she is, in a word, awesome. Fun, calm, super-organized, on top of every detail…’nuff said! Dave and Sam from Bigler Productions were on hand to shoot video, and Susan from Make Me Fabulous was doing makeup along with a couple of her colleagues whose names I’ve unfortunately forgotten. My bad on that, since they’re all great, all the time…and they definitely live up to the name! The flowers were from Designs by Douglas–this was our first time working with them, and they did a beautiful job from beginning to end.
Back to our bride and groom–they’re a great couple, and I really enjoyed getting to know them over the past year. He’s pretty stoic–definitely the strong, quiet type! Kristina is a lot of fun–she wanted every detail to be just right, and why not! All her hard work and planning paid off in a fabulous wedding!
The ceremony was in Rogers Memorial Park in Bolton Landing, and was performed by Jessica Rowell of Carissa Ceremonies — she always makes her ceremonies so fun and personal, and I have only the highest regard for the way she does things!
The staff at Erlowest is always on their game, and I especially love working with Erin Dewey, who’s in charge of everything wedding-related there. You’re probably getting the idea that we had a great day, working with a lot of the top people in the area…and you’re right!
All in all–a pretty darn good day. Hope you enjoyed the photos!
