Laura and Devon’s Sailboat Adventure There’s something uniquely romantic about the New Jersey Shore, especially when it’s so sentimental! Laura and Devon’s engagement session was nothing short of magical, featuring a sailboat adventure and a stunning beach sunset in Seaside Park. As a photographer, it was a joy to witness and capture their love story, […]
Scenic Views and Comfort Foods The art of wedding planning, because that’s really what it is, shouldn’t be vague. Every wedding is different, because the two people you’re celebrating are unique! Their wedding details and every other component should be unique as well, and Ali and Josh definitely added their personal taste (pun intended) to […]
A Fall Wedding in the Catskills Driving up through the Catskills, I immediately felt sentiment for the years of road trips my husband and I have taken over the years, heading north. From day trips to West Point to weeklong trips to the Adirondacks, I have such fond memories of the New York State Thruway. […]
A Wedding in Full Color It had been almost a year since I met Brandy and Mike during their Princeton engagement session. Their wedding was right around the corner, so we decided to meet for coffee just a few weeks before the big day. Over a year and a half ago, I gave Brandy a […]
Ali & Brad’s Greek Wedding I’ve been looking forward to this wedding all year! Ali and Brad’s wedding was my first Greek Orthodox wedding, so we decided from the start, that I would attend their rehearsal the night before so I could watch them go through the motions and learn about this beautiful ceremony! There […]
Going to the Chapel I’ve been spending a lot of editing hours watching wedding movies in the background, and love seeing what Hollywood assumes a wedding should look like. It’s always different (and always missing photographers), but aside from no photographer, they’re much like every wedding I get to photograph! No two weddings are the […]
There are just some brides that you get to know really well, so that by the time the wedding day comes around, you’re already friends. That’s how I would describe my relationship with Cara. Leading up to the wedding day, there were several emails, texts, direct messages, etc. and I absolutely loved it! I first […]
Love, Light & Laughter filled Wedding Day I met Alison and Jonathan for the first time only a few short weeks ago! I knew I loved them from the moment I recommended a sunrise engagement session for the amazing light, and they said yes without any hesitation! Not only did they arrive cheerfully on that […]
A Beach Wedding We’re going to have to start at the beginning of Kristin and Connor’s wedding planning to fully understand why their beach wedding (and instagram hashtag!) is so clever and important. A little over a year ago, while on vacation in Maui, Connor proposed to Kristin as the sun set over the beach […]
A Timeless Wedding at Natirar If I had to choose my favorite part of the wedding planning process with my couples, I think it would be getting to know them during their engagement session. There are so many things going on for couples planning their wedding. Some of it is daunting, some of it is […]
A Midsummer Wedding in the Somerset Hills I first met Emily and Scott at the crack of dawn last summer on a super windy day down the shore. I often refer to engagement sessions as “training ground” for the wedding day. Emily and Scott got extra credit for their training session, because the wind was […]
Love on Marco Island “They say love finds you when you least expect it…” These are the words Lauren used to begin the story of how she and Justin met in February 2021. With the global pandemic in full force, Lauren decided to visit her parents in Marco Island, Florida for a weekend. While out […]
