Jessica + Kevin

Jessica and Kevin's wedding ceremony was held at the beautiful Nativity of the Mother of God, Russian Orthodox church in Albany, New York.

With some of the Covid restrictions still in effect, they deiced to have a small ceremony in May and then have their large reception in October at The State Room in Albany. Their ceremony was presided over by Rev Alexis Duncan, Rector, Archpriest and Father Michael Soloviev, Protodeacon and attended by the couple's bridesmaids, groomsmen, family and a handful of friends.

Since flash is restricted inside the church during the ceremony, I am so glad to have cameras capable of high iso settings as it was basically a cloudy day, so the light really was limited.

This was just a short three hour event, but that was plenty of time to capture some detail photos of the lavishly appointed church interior and it also gave us time for some bridal party photos and a quick romance session after the ceremony.

I cannot wait until Jessica and Kevin's "wedding" reception in October, where we will have time to go over to The Rockefeller Center for some more bridal party photos before heading over to the reception.

 

Here are some of my favorite photos from their wedding day.
