[kara and jay's vineyard wedding]

In the last wonderful days of summer, I was lucky enough to be a part of Kara and Jay's vineyard wedding at Ventosa Vineyards in Geneva, NY.  We met up at the Ramada Inn, where the guys were prepping in the lobby, awaiting the arrival of the groom.  Once Jay got there, we went down to the waterfront for some candids.

So, jumping on this dock was not such a great idea, it resulted in some splashed pant legs (but a fun shot!)

I went back inside to see how the girls were progressing, and was happy to see a perfectly calm Kara with every detail though of and in place.  I think she should work as a wedding planner on the side.

She made the hangers herself, as well as many of the details throughout the day.

Since the reception immediately followed the ceremony, Kara and Jay decided to do a first look so we could have some time to roam around and get some images.

A peek at the ring bearer....Riley carried a ring one other time as well, when Jay proposed to Kara, he tied the engagement ring to the leash before they went out for a walk.  Of course he had to be in the wedding!

The sunset at Ventosa was unbelievable.  The tree in the background supposedly is one of the oldest in the country, and the grounds in general have a very Tuscan feel.

I could keep adding pictures...everything was a photographer's dream.  Awesome families and friends, lots of crazy dancing, oh, and fireworks!
