A special Thank You to a certain Aussie photographer who asked to remain nameless, but gave me this awesome camera! Here are a few frames of my first roll playing with this wonderful camera.
My oldest son and my dad out in Montauk being very much themselves:
I can’t wait for Marcie and Corey’s wedding. I had so much fun shooting their engagement session in my backyard–well, not literally, but we were in my neighborhood. They have a great sense of ease with each other and in front of the camera! I have no doubt they are going to ROCK their wedding at one of New York’s finest and a favorite venue of mine Tribeca Rooftop!
Such an awesome couple! I loved spending time with them during their engagement session (see below) and I enjoyed hanging with them on their wedding day even more. Lisa and Jon filled studio 450 with such a sense of class, style and rock n roll…I felt honored to be there with them.
Now I don’t know much about shoes, but I do know Lisa rocked her shoes and the two of them rocked their converse!
Do you think I can get away with black leather converse that say “photographer?” Can I pull that off at a wedding? Okay, don’t answer that. : )
Thanks to SCOTT for second shooting!
Slideshow served SEXY
Lisa and Jon, such a super cool couple! They rocked their wedding too, I think I will post that next. But thought I would share some of my faves for their engagement session:
I think we had to cancel Fran and John’s engagement shoot three times due to nasty, cold, wet weather. I kept telling them that the shoots that are canceled are usually the best once they finally happen. When we did meet, we timed it perfectly. Check out the peak of fall foliage below:
Kaitlin and Michael must have pulled some MAJOR wedding strings. Maybe all the wedding g-ds were looking favorably on her because she is a blogger for 201 Bride. Their wedding was at NJ’s own Liberty House which can probably claim the best views in NYC (right along with Bubby’s in BKLYN). On top of that, the weather was perfect, the light was awesome AND somehow, they managed to have fireworks go off over the NYC skyline in the middle of their reception.
It was my pleasure to work with David as my second shooter, who got some of the great pics below.
Kaitlin and Michael, thanks for being so agreeable and willing!!!
Happy New Year!
I wanted my first blog post of 2010 to be of Caelah and Eli. I loved their spirit. I showed up to beautiful Belle Mer in Newport, RI and it was raining…lots! But Caelah never stopped smiling and one of the first things she said was, “If there is any chance of shooting outside, I want to go for it!” Music to my ears. : ) She wasn’t overly concerned with her hair, or with her dress getting a little dirty. And wouldn’t you know, as soon as the portraits were scheduled, it stopped raining. It started again and stopped and started, but never once did they give up. We shot mostly in drizziling/spitting rain. The result (in my humble opinion)? Great pics! A note to all future brides (mine and others): no risk, no reward!
Thanks to Kristen for second shooting!
