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 Romantic Spring Wedding at Holly Hedge Estate The last time I photographed a wedding at Holly Hedge Estate, I had a medium format Hasselblad strapped to me, alternating color and black and white film every 24 exposures. Needless to say, that was a while back. When Amanda reached out to tell me she was […]

A Wedding in May I arrived at Sam’s house as the girl’s were getting ready, met her amazing bridesmaids and got settled into the group before heading onto the party bus to Natirar. The girls were in their matching gray robes and relaxing with some White Claw spiked seltzer (the official beach drink, in my […]

A Spring Wedding in the Country I’m really not good at “less is more.” I’m always thinking flashy and in your face obvious, so I don’t even try to tackle decorating my home or buying my own clothes. It’s always a fail. Jenn and Brian, on the other hand? Nothing about their wedding details was […]

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 […]

Wintry Red & White Maternity Session Pregnancy was one of my favorite experiences. Sure, it’s uncomfortable, and makes you super tired.  I also was not a cute pregnant woman.  Especially when pregnant with my daughter (sadly, I’m gonna get an “Amen” from some of my closest acquaintances…) I think maternity sessions are overlooked because for […]
