Spring Wedding at Winged Foot Golf Club Some wedding venues are beautiful, and some are meaningful—but for Madi and JD, Winged Foot Golf Club was both. This exclusive course, located just 50 miles from New York City, has been a part of JD’s family history for generations, making it the perfect place for their elegant […]
A Sentimental Ceremony I’d like to jump right to the ceremony at St. Joseph’s in High Bridge. Hilary and Jake did not have a first look, which is very typical for a church wedding. There is a lot of traveling happening when we’re going from getting ready, to church, to reception, so I made sure […]
Cara & Adam Life in the West Village I’m not big on vacations, as my husband can attest to, but I do love mixing “business with pleasure.” So, a weekend in the city with James, AND a whole bunch of NYC sessions was right up my alley! We started Saturday morning with Cara and Adam’s […]
A Great Way to Start Memorial Day Weekend I met Nicki and Jason for the first time at their engagement session at this very spot on the hill behind the Natirar mansion last fall. I was so excited to meet them and they were such an enthusiastic couple, I knew their wedding day would be […]
A Winter Wedding turned Spring I knew what I was looking for when I walked into the Park Chateau for Ashley & Kevin’s late March wedding. She had told me all about her grand plans for a winter wedding that turned spring after the wedding ceremony at the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart. When […]
Intimate yet Grand Street As we speedily followed the newlyweds down Grand Street at dusk, a group of girls stopped Megan and Ryan to congratulate them. One girl in particular, with hopeful anticipation, asked “Did you just get married with a small group of your closest friends and family?!” Megan replied, “Yes!” I think that […]
Why You Need an Engagement Session with Your Wedding Photographer I think the engagement session is a very undervalued part of the wedding process for many couples. Whether you already had a session when you got engaged, or you had a friend take your pictures for you, or you already sent out your Save-the-Dates, I […]
A Winter Wedding Could 2018 start out any better? Michelle and Spencer’s winter wedding was as magical as I could have hoped, and more so. From the moment I walked into the Bridal Suite, I knew that the day was going to be perfect, no matter what happened. Michelle was relaxed and completely ready. She […]
This year seemed to fly by, but looking back at some of the happiest, most emotional moments, I have been transported back and totally overwhelmed with joy as I remember each and every wedding we were blessed to be part of this year. 2017 was a wonderful year to remember, and I wanted to share […]
I couldn’t have imagined any other way to end my 2017 weddings than with Krista and Brian’s intimate wedding at Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club in Bedminster. I first met them at a coffee shop in Summit, and we discussed all of the details of their wedding from location to lighting. After our initial meeting, Brian […]
There were little children running all around the bridal suite, so happy to be spending an entire day out of school AND being with their cousins. The only thing louder than the noise and excitement of little people was Laura’s smile and enthusiasm! Laura’s step-daughter, Danielle, carefully applied Laura’s makeup with the assistance of her […]
