renee and mike : engaged
How many times have you driven to queens or Kennedy Airport and drove past the old worlds fair grounds. I have memories going back to when I was a teenager of the giant globe (unisphere). Well recently I was driving to a wedding and saw it again. The difference is now I was looking at it in a completely different way. “how cool would it be to shoot a wedding there” I finally got the chance. Renee and Mike live in queens and knew exactly what I was talking about when I said the globe thing. Anthony and I arrived early to scope out the grounds and we couldn’t believe how many cool spots there were to shoot in. We never even made it to the unisphere, thats how much we had to work with. If anyone out there reads this and is having a wedding in queens make sure your photographer takes you there!
Oh yeah, who is Anthony you might ask. He is going to be the next big thing! Seriously, I am in the process of putting together another crew of insanely talented people to shoot events when I am already booked. I will point out Anthonys shots in this post, and so that you can put a face to the name. Here is a photo of Anthony posing for me as we scouted the park.
And now for the reason for the post. Renee and Mike!
Here is Anthonys shot. My angle is from up in the tower. Anthony was kind enough to take a picture of that!
This next one is another of Anthonys.
And the last of Anthony’s, this shot is completely to his credit. He scouted this grass and set up the shot.
Here is my version.
I cant express how awesome this location is for photos. For any of my queens weddings in 2010, lets talk locations!!
