The first thing that impressed Allie and I when we arrived at Angel and Tony’s home for the traditional Asian tea ceremony was the amount of extended family. There must have been twenty-plus relatives: aunts and uncles, siblings and grandparents. We had so much fun with Angel’s family, especially with her relatives who did not speak English. It is amazing what can be accomplished with a smile, or a laugh. But what was even more amazing was the fact that Tony was asleep in his bed (door open) for the first 30 minutes, oblivious to the ruckus and excitement. Now that was impressive.
Angel and Tony met in law school in New York City, and that is where their similarity fades: she is conservative, he is a musician. She is a corporate attorney, he is a public defender. Together, they are gracious, modest and a perfect fit. Their love is tangible. Allie and I felt very blessed to be involved in their special day.
And, what a BEAUTIFUL bride! Sorry Tony, but your wife gets most of the pictures below!

DJ Nahchey - Stunning pictures. I work with a lot of other photographers but nothing compares to these. Top notch!
Steve - I love your photos Brian (and Allie). You inspire me to get out there and shoot more often. Nice site, keep the great photos coming!
Faustine - Everything from the prep work, the venue, the photography, the food, and the music seemed to come together seamlessly.
Jeff: You are an absolute god-send. You were the conductor of a finely orchestrated piece, and did it looking smashing-ly handsome and with a witty demeanor that charmed the whole family. We adore you- and could you be apart of ALL future family get-togethers?!
Allie and Brian: The photos are jaw dropping. Angel looks gorgeous and I feel like you captured some timeless moments of the event. We are very excited to see the rest of the film…and we are so very grateful for your flexibility, and amazing ability to appreciate our family’s craziness. P.S. the iphone pic of your little baby girl was breath-taking (heart-breaker in the making!)
Missy Lowe - I had such a wonderful time with Angel’s family, beautifying them for such a wonderful day! They were all so fantastic, and I feel truly blessed to have been able to work with such wonderful people!
PS. The photos are AMAZING!! You both are fantastic!
