Stacy + Mike

Bare with me as I grab some plutonium for the flux capacitor, and climb into my DeLorean DMC-12 and set the clock for October 11, 2008. Why this particular date? Well, on that date I photographed Jessica and Jeff’s wedding. During their reception I grabbed a great candid photo of this couple embracing while slow dancing. The woman looked as if she were in heaven. I captioned the photo, “I think someone’s in love!” (See first photo in this blog post). Well, as you might have already guessed, that couple was Stacy and Mike! And here’s the REALLY cool thing about having happy awesome clients, not only did I get to see Jessica and Jeff again at Stacy and Mike’s wedding on Sunday, BUT I also got to see them the day before at Kathleen and Bill’s wedding on Saturday! (See the prior wedding blog post) Yep, Jessica and Jeff referred Kathleen and Bill to me as well! Thanks guys!!!! Ok, hop back in the DeLorean and come back to present day! Stacy is one of my favorite brides to date! She’s so genuine and easy to photograph, plus she just cracks me up! It was my absolute honor and privilege to photograph Stacy and Mike’s wedding at the uber cool Lake Mohawk Country Club in Sparta NJ. Today was also a new first for me, in that I did all of Stacy and Mike’s photos after the wedding had ended. This almost back fired on me as it began to POUR with rain during the reception, but luckily let up about 30 minutes before it was over and in time for photos. I was left with some sun light, some dramatic clouds, a great location, TIME, and of course a great couple who are so in love! To quote my last bride Kathleen, “The Todd is still undefeated!” I love that! Congratulations Stacy and Mike!!!!

Stacy and Mike dancing at Jessica and Jeff’s wedding back in 2008.
Sadly, Stacy didn’t wind up wearing these shoes because they kept snagging on her wedding dress!
I like the look on Stacy’s face, but I LOVE the look on the make-up artist’s face even more!
Stacy was so in love with her dress that she started dancing with it!
Just to show that Stacy is capable of being serious at times too!
1 wedding cake + 1 mirror + a grumpy looking elderly gentleman = THIS!
I wish I had a story to go along with this photo, but honestly, I got nothin’!
Here’s Jeff. (The guy through the window, not the guy in the reflection)
One last kiss before being whisked away in the Rolls.

Todd Laffler - No comments yet? hmmm ok, then please allow me to copy and paste an excerpt from an email I received from Stacy….

” My Idol,

First of all, your sweet words in the blog made me cry. I didn’t cry at the ceremony, but your blog made me cry, go figure! :-) The photos once again are SpECtaCUlaR!!!!!!!!!! The one that made me get emotional was the one that no one really knows the story behind. BUGS BUNNY! My dad came home from work one day and had a bugs bunny stuffed animal hidden inside of his coat which was all buttoned up. He opened the top button, and two gray ears popped out and I had the biggest grin imaginable! So…a few months ago, mom and I were shopping around in an antique store in south Jersey and found Mr. Bugs in a tux!!! I immediately thought we had to invite him to the wedding and get a great pic with Dad, which you absolutely did! That picture is so precious to me.”

You are quite welcome Stacy, like I said it was my absolute pleasure! Thank you!

rachel d - Ummm…my mind is screaming “AWESOME!!!” these are so much fun and gorgeous, as usual!! and the one that takes my breath away is the silhoutte of the fence, couple, and the radical cumulonimbus cloud in the background. Its not my wedding, but i’d love a canvas of that!! =)
