Abigail and Victor had a beautiful black tie fall wedding at Fordham University & Pelham Bay Split Rock Golf Course. This venue meant a lot to them because it’s where they met. Getting married there brought their story full circle, and you could feel how special that was throughout the entire day. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was going to be a meaningful and unforgettable wedding day.
Abigail’s Wedding Dress
Abigail wore a show stopping dress by Pnina Tornai that she found at Kleinfeld. It was one of those dresses that felt made for her. The fit, the design, the way it caught the light, it was all perfect. She looked amazing, and it was such an important moment to document her stepping into the dress for the first time.
The Ceremony
The ceremony was filled with emotion that you can feel through these photos! As soon as Victor saw Abigail walk down the aisle, he teared up right away. It was such a raw, genuine moment. The couple shared quiet looks, held hands, and took everything in. Even after the ceremony, they were full of smiles and happy tears. It was clear how much this day meant to both of them.
They were glowing the entire day, and we loved documenting those real moments as they happened.
Bride + Groom Romantic Wedding Portraits
After the ceremony, we took portraits around the Fordham campus. It was important for them to have photos in the place where everything started. They were relaxed, smiling, and just enjoying the moment. These portraits truly capture who they are as a couple.
The Wedding Reception
Later, everyone celebrated at Pelham Bay Split Rock Golf Course. The reception space was beautiful and full of energy. People were dancing, laughing, and having the best time celebrating Abigail and Victor.
We were truly grateful to be part of Abigail and Victor’s wedding and wish them all the best!
Client Review
Abigail and Victor were kind enough to leave us a truly heartfelt review,
“If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who truly captures the essence of your special day, look no further than Lisa Blanche. From start to finish, Lisa was absolutely amazing to work with. Her professionalism and warmth immediately put us at ease, and we felt completely confident in her hands throughout the entire process. She made us feel like we were the most important couple in the world, which made our experience even more memorable.
Her photos are nothing short of breathtaking. Every shot tells a story, perfectly balancing candid documentary-style moments with beautifully posed portraits. It’s the best of both worlds—authentic, emotional moments, paired with stunning, timeless images that will hang on your walls for years to come. Lisa has an incredible ability to make every shot feel natural and full of life, capturing all the little details that make your wedding day unique.
What truly stood out was how Lisa listened to us and understood exactly what we wanted, while also providing expert guidance. She didn’t just meet our expectations—she exceeded them in every way, making our dreams come true and then some.
Not to mention, Lisa’s husband was also a huge help and a joy to work with. Together, they make the perfect team, bringing not only expertise but also a sense of fun and ease that made us feel like we were working with friends, rather than just hired professionals.
The end result was a collection of photos that surpassed everything we hoped for. We will treasure them forever. If you want a photographer who’s skilled, professional, and passionate about her craft—and who will truly make your wedding day unforgettable—Lisa Blanche is the one to hire. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
