2011 has been a wonderful and busy year for me. I’ve fallen behind on my blogging, but with the winter approaching (and more time on my hands) I’m back on it. Please keep visiting my blog! I promise to post more often. Is it really winter already…?

Brooke + Noah

This winter, I had the honor of photographing Brooke and Noah’s magical wedding and reception held at the Battery Gardens Restaurant in New York City. The venue was stunning with vistas looking out onto the harbor and the Statue of Liberty. This dynamic backdrop made for a wonderful series of portraits and the winter light and setting sun enhanced the atmosphere.

Brooke and Noah’s wedding brought both the traditional and modern in perfect juxtaposition: no assigned seating and canapes encouraged a more party like setting. Guests mingled and danced with ease, which made their wedding feel like a true celebration.

Happy Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day, from me to all of you!

As a working mom bustling between work and visits to the playground, play dates, or even those unexpected doctor’s visits – Mother’s Day provides a wonderful moment to reflect on what motherhood means. As a mother of a toddler, I’ve learned to be more patient and to appreciate the little things. It’s not always about the end result. It’s fun to just enjoy the process.

And as for my amazing, inspiring Mom: she taught me that having a child is about teaching them good values, being proud of their successes, and fostering a wonderful friendship.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Best Bouquets!

As a New York City wedding photographer, I have the privilege of photographing some pretty and spectacular weddings. One of my favorite parts of being a wedding photographer is the opportunity to capture the details and essence in a wedding. I especially look forward to seeing the bride’s floral selection and bouquet, as this is a decision that arguably sets the color tone for the bride’s big day. From pastel pinks through to deep purples, bright reds and fluorescent oranges, the hues in a bride’s bouquet are always unique and varied. Here are a few of my favorite bridal bouquets that I have had the pleasure of photographing:
