Massive winds? Sub 40 Degree weather? Nothing can stop Yuri and Kee. Oh, and they came dressed to impress! We hit up the beautiful Hamilton Park in Weehawken New Jersey (WEE-HAW-KEN) for their engagement session. Yuri and Kee are probably one of the goofiest clients we have, and we love it! The whole time Kee would whisper “I LOVE SLEEP, I LOVE SLEEP” in Yuri’s ear and the both of them would start hysterically laughing. Even though we had no idea what they were talking about, we couldn’t help but join in on the giggle-fest

So here they are, in all their glory! Oh, and the New York City Skyline across the Hudson wasn’t too bad either…

While we were in NYC for Yuri and Kee’s wedding, we took some time off to meet up with Kim and Adam (you may remember them from our preview post). They treated us to a delicious dinner at Buddakan in the Meat Packing District and then took us around town for a mini engagement photo session. We especially love meetings like this because it’s an easy way for us to get to know the couple on a more informal level and, to allow them to get more comfortable with us pointing our cameras at them making out. Hope you enjoy looking at these two because we’ll be posting their gorgeous wedding photos soon too!

We were looking for some posing inspiration so we went to the pros. Not bad, huh?

What happens when you bring together 3 Texans and a Taiwanese in New York City? –>

Melody and Ted welcomed us into New York with open arms and open minds. With no real plan in mind, we jumped into taxis and subways, randomly stopping for photos.  First off was Central Park, but it was the day of the massive New York Marathon, so we had trouble getting some privacy.  Good thing Ted brought his HIMYM yellow umbrella!

I should mention that Melody and I have known each other since high school, but unfortunately, lost touch after we graduated.  I might have seen/talked to her twice since we graduated in 2000, but because of Facebook, we were reunited and now Table4 gets to photograph her wedding!  We love social media! (follow us on twitter & facebook)

We made another stop in Grand Central Station and while the shot on the left was being taken, Andrew was being interviewed about driving in New York City.  Can you spot him?

After GST, we hopped over to Ted’s rooftop and got some amazing views of the sky right before the sun went to bed.

We also made it out to High Line Park, a new urban park that’s got some pretty cool architecture.

As their engagement session came to an end, we found this part in High Line Park that was lit by blue fluorescents, literally. So we decided to have some crazy camera trick photos. These are all straight out of the camera shots, no photoshop blur was added. (explanation below)

The one thing you don’t see from the above photos is how dumb we looked while we took them. These photos require a slower shutter speed and some quick motion while the shutter is open.  The trick is to twist your camera really fast while the shutter is open, which could also look like you’re having a seizure. And then we’re using a synced flash with 2nd curtain so Melody and Ted come out clear and sharp.  Try it out but don’t hurt yourselves!

Thanks Melody and Ted!  You guys are awesome.

I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it’s standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.

I’m blue da ba dee da ba di…da ba dee da ba di…da ba dee da ba di….da ba dee da ba di…

A sneak peak from Melody and Ted’s engagement session in New York over the weekend.  We hit up High Line Park, a really cool above ground park.  If you can’t tell, we got a little crazy at the end with some mind bending camera tricks & techniques.  No photoshop!  Can you guess how these were taken?  (hint: it involves us looking like idiots)
