Emma & Dan’s Summer Wedding at Onteora Mountain House

Always special to photograph weddings at the historic Onteora Mountain House (once the Summer Estate of the Hellman’s Mayo mogul Richard Hellman). We had our first opportunity back in 2012, when the property was owned by the best in the business-Bob! Since Bob’s passing we always have much emotion going back to the property and having the opportunity to photograph weddings for new clients. This gallery of Emma & Dan’s wedding day, which was filled with so much love and happiness-is as much a homage to the couple as it is to Bob. And, I’m sure that Emma and Dan would agree, as also would the numerous others that were married with Bob present. Thank You Bob!
