I met Caitlyn and Jason well over a year ago.   We talked about their wedding plans, and set up an engagement session.   We also found out we were neighbors, living only a few streets away from each other in Niskayuna, NY.  The day of the wedding Jason was at their home, and Caitlyn at her parents just down the block.  Having them getting ready so close, made it easy to pop over to see them both before heading to the church.   It wasn’t surprising to walk in and see Caitlin already looking stunning.

I also want to mention that the staff there were a pleasure to work with.   There was no question that working together, to give the bride and groom the best day of their lives, was top priority.  Before heading into the cocktail hour, I was able to steal the newly weds for just a few more pictures.
