The day before Leah and Stephen’s wedding, hurricane Arthur swept through with the remnant rain shower the morning of July 4th, their wedding day. However, by the time they walked out of their ceremony, they were blessed with amazing weather with sunshine, a beautiful blue sky dotted with fluffy clouds, and cool breezes. Leah and Stephen were over joyed on their wedding day and it showed! After all of the weddings Leah has assisted me at, it was a pleasure to be able to capture her beautiful day. Enjoy a small preview!!
Its rare that you hear of couples getting together when their friend’s try and set them up, but in the case of Dana and Vlad, that is exactly what happened! Though Dana’s friend had been trying to get the two of them together, Dana was not interested in a blind date. It took her having issues with her computer for her friend to send Vlad over to help Dana. A year later and Vlad was getting down on one knee to propose after a picnic lunch at the Bronx Zoo.
Dana and Vlad are a beautiful couple, inside and out. Dana is sweet and kind and Vlad always seemed ready to be there to help her with a steady hand and a gentle spirit. I am honored to have been there to witness their beautiful wedding and the start of their marriage!

Laurie and Victor had their engagement session this past weekend and they put together a beautiful French styled setup. I can’t wait to share more with you but for now, here is a small preview:
Wendy and Elliot are getting married in almost exactly a month!! For their engagement session they chose Greenwich Point, CT, only a few minutes from where they live. Such an amazing place with some of my favorite things to photograph at an engagement session; tall grass, beach, golden sunlight, docks on the ocean. They were a joy to be with and I am looking forward to photographing their beautiful wedding day!!
Melissa and Steve chose one of their favorite areas of NYC for their engagement session, the quieter streets between Park Ave and the East River. They are getting married later this year and they couldn’t be any more excited for the beautiful wedding that the amazing Elissa from Elissa Held Events is helping them plan at the beautiful Ritz Carlton!! Enjoy a preview from their engagement session and time together:
