MOHONK MOUNTAIN HOUSE WEDDING: JACKIE + JAMES
{8.30.2015}
It was a lovely summer day, Jackie walked down the leafy tunnel at Mohonk Moutain House to see her future husband James. Her wedding day arrived in full glory with the warm support from her family. Surrounded by their friends and family, the sweet couple promised to honor and love for the rest of their lives. It was such a beautiful moment, as Jackie raised the hand of her husband and looked into his eyes. That second, they know they not only exchanged their rings, but also their hearts.
Jackie and James, thank you both for this unforgettable day, I was so happy to be part of it. Your love made me tearing up as I could not be happier that you both found each other true soul mates. Thank you for trusting me to document your very first moment as husband and wife. Hope you both enjoy the life in New York! Sincerely, Jia

The End
“Jia did our wedding photography for a small, intimate ceremony at Mohonk Mountain House in late August. The photos were utterly incredible — he was so creative with his candid and portrait images and framing the background/setting. Everyone said the images were “breathtaking!” Jia coached us throughout the day so the photos looked natural and truly conveyed our emotion and chemistry which was most important to us in choosing a photographer. He was also a joy to have around on a sometimes stressful and personal day — the entire family agreed. My husband and I both didn’t even notice him during the ceremony and he moved so swiftly and quietly around. He is passionate and very personable, and worked swiftly and professionally through rain and shine (literally) on our special day. Jia also produced the finished images very quickly so it was great to share with family/friends immediately. My husband and I were so very happy with our overall choice and would highly recommend his services!! We feel very lucky to have stumbled upon this little gold mine of a photographer :)
