It's busy season. . .

Here are 4 portrait session images and a wedding teaser.  You'll have to keep checking back for their full posts!

First up, a furry family!

Next, a sweet human family.  ;)

 A gorgeous senior.

Canine Companions Session!

 And a lovely and lively wedding!

Angelique & Tim planned a wedding weekend that was anything but ordinary.  When Angelique first contacted me, she mentioned they really were trying to plan something more along the lines of an antiwedding wedding. . .I told her I was her photographer!!  :)  I love when people do what suits them, cookie - cutter wedding formulas are so over in my book!  I think this is why I end up with the most fantastic clients ever and why I love my job so very much!

They had an intimate marriage ceremony on Friday and then celebrated at some of their favorite locations in their own neighborhood the rest of the weekend hitting up many of their favorites spots with friends and family.  Brian and I were super delighted to capture a few of these moments!  It's been a real challenge choosing which images to blog and what to say about our time with them so I went crazy and way overboard! 

Their warmth, generosity, and sincerity left a huge imprint on our hearts.  It would be honest for me to say we felt more like guests when we were with them and their friends and families.  I truly hope our images can reflect how genuinely loved and loving these two are!

The weekend included a lot of firsts for me as a photographer (and Brian too).  First Brooklyn, NY wedding - hello, we do travel!! ;)  It was our first time photographing an after party - probably wouldn't work for everyone, but T & A's after party was a super fabulous event at their favorite bar.  It was the first time Brian drove a bride and groom around (I think) in their car.  Just being responsible after we went to a bar. . .um, first time photographing bride and groom in said bar.  And, of course, the first time the bride and groom did karaoke at their wedding celebration. 

We started out at their home and then they drove us to various spots in Brooklyn.  The weather forecast was not promising, high winds, threats of tornadoes, hail, and thunderstorms, but we braved it and despite one passing shower and some windy moments, thankfully nothing really came to fruition.

Location: Brooklyn, NY

Dinner spot: Frankie's Sputino

Afterparty: Monteros

This first shot is Brian's. I'm in love with this moment as the bride, of course she could stop traffic, made it across the street before us.  ;)

we took a snack break . . .

T&A requested photos with their 90 year old neighbor who was so sweet!!  Brian caught this moment too.

and Brian's angle. . .

Taking a break before walking to the celebratory dinner at one of their favorite restaurants.

 Their parents did readings before dinner. . .and announced them as husband and wife!

Remember this cutie-pie couple?  I photographed their fantastic wedding in 2006!

hold on, we're headed to the bar. . .

If you're a guest from this wedding and you'd like to see the entire gallery, please contact A&T soon. . .

I'm so excited to work with this family again.  This little one was three weeks old when I took his photographs; but he just seemed so alert, and I could not get over the eye contact he gave me.  His parents are cool, calm, and beautiful.  His 4-legged big brother is oh so sweet and protective of him. 

Choosing images for the blog was tough!  Take a look at this little man with his brand new parents. 

In his amazing nursery!  I love his little forehead wrinkle!

The next one just cracks me up. . .

Just a few interesting things that left the office recently!  People ask me all of the time, "What are your most popular products?"  Although I want everyone to order what they love, whether that means lots of smaller gift sized prints, or lots of large wall art; I do have items that seem to be very popular with my clients.  These items are my mini albums, canvas prints, and custom composites.
