Claire and Dennis

September 28, 2009

Last Saturday, in the quaint West Village, I walked around with Claire and Dennis, my upcoming wedding couple, and did some engagement shots.  We visited the new High Line and talked about their upcoming wedding day in October which is going to be in a beautiful Manhattan loft.

Summer’s End

September 27, 2009

Ahhhhh! So much has happened since July I’ve just been too swamped to update! The summer flew by and I can’t believe it’s really already October! However, I am happy to pull out my hoodies and welcome the cool air.

So, last post I informed everyone that my website was down and under construction. Luckily, the site is back up and running, however not complete yet. Check it out anyways though:

I’ve been shooting like  crazy, traveling, and moving into a new apartment! First thing’s first though…photos! About a month ago, I met the talented Yves (beat maker) and did a photoshoot with him. Other than melting outside under the sun on one of the hottest days in BK, we managed to get some great shots! He was a blast to work with as well a trooper for toughin’ it out in the heat…

On another hot summer night, MRI got together (Me+partner Ryan) and did a MRI Lightpainting PhotoBooth for a friend of a friend, Natalie’s Birthday party! Everyone at the party was super fun and loved the  photobooth. My favorite shot of the night though, of course, included the little cat, Kevin!

I also got to hang out and photograph the coolest and most laid back couple, Michele and Chris. We did their engagement photos in Hoboken one afternoon over looking Manhattan. Then they were so kind and treated me to some drinks while we talked about their upcoming Wedding….which was amazing….but the engagement shots first:

Now their wedding was to take place on a beach in Long Branch….however, it was down pouring the entire day. Props to Michele for being in good spirits the whole time, which is why I think it ultimately stopped raining just in time for their ceremony and held off the entire reception! It was really pretty amazing for as soon as the last guest left, it began to down pour again. Funny how those things sorta work out. Their wedding was one of the most fun and beautiful ones I’ve seen in quite some time. Michele did a great job with little details like starfish for table placers, a bonfire with s’mores and their very own fire works!

Like I was saying, I’ve been swamped with moving into my new apartment, which I absolutely love, and getting ready for another wedding coming up, as well as my favorite holiday HALLOWEEN! Stay tuned for more photos!
