Chrissy and Joe’s Wedding

Chrissy and Joe’s Wedding

Here’s a challenge I face every wedding – How do I show you the best of 600-1200 images in under 5 minutes?  If we’re being honest, we both know you’ll be on to another webpage in that span of time, and probably have had a few others on the way.  I mean you no disrespect – I do the same thing.  I get bored looking at images I shot after 5 minutes, and I’m a professional wedding photographer who works on images all day long.  

So this week I’m taking a different approach, as you probably saw up above.  A highlight slideshow of my favorite images.  No family formals, none of the party, just a concise story about Joseph and Christina getting married.  If you want to see all the rest, you can wade through the ordering galleries with Joe and Chrissy – Lucia will post that in a day or two, and I’ll put the link here.  Love to hear your thoughts, please share in the comments below.

Here’s a few of my favorite things to look for in the slideshow:  Joe’s meticulously hand-tied bow tie; the girls had a suite with a pool table; the ceiling of the Holy Rosary Cathedral, and the vintage Rolls that Chrissy hired to get them from the church to the Westin that 98% of the guests didn’t see (it was late!)

We’re so thankful we had Lucia and Will to capture the best day of our life. The photos came out better than we ever imagined. We highly recommend Focus Photography to shoot your big day.

Between Will’s creative eye and Lucia’s attention to detail you’re guaranteed to capture every moment. Not to mention they’re a hoot to work with!

Our entire wedding party loved working with them and even got the shy ones to come out of their shell for photos!

We can’t sing enough praises about Focus Photography and their amazing work. —-Chrissy and Joe Salemi
