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 Fall Wedding at Jasna Polana Can anyone else quickly read a couple’s dynamic just by watching them interact? When I first met Alison and Mike, I got the feeling that they had grown up together and felt so relaxed and comfortable in each other’s company. I couldn’t imagine them apart. Besides ending our engagement […]
A Wedding Day Hunt It may not be customary for the bride and groom to see each other on the morning of their wedding, but I don’t know if a fox hunt is customary before the wedding either! However, seeing as Bart is the huntsman of the Essex Fox Hounds, how could they not?! I […]
A Proposal at the Met I’ve had the privilege of following Marybeth and Chris’ engagement longer than they’ve even been engaged, and their proposal story was epic. Marybeth’s cousin is my good friend, Kelly Joyce, so naturally I knew about the proposal even before it occurred. Kelly was parked in the Metropolitan Museum of Art […]
A Summer Wedding at Natirar How often do you get to work with your friends? I work with mine every day. I’m not just talking about my photo friends (who are amazing!), but also my brides! I am so fortunate to have incredible brides who share so much of their wedding process with me, and […]
Van Vorst Park “Tell me about yourself” is such a vague question, which basically results in “I’m me.” At least that’s how I view myself, and I’m sure a whole bunch of people can relate to that one! However! “Tell me where you grew up. Tell me how you met. What do you enjoy doing?” […]
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 […]
Why Change? Growing up with 5 people to one bathroom (brutal) we all used one family shampoo and conditioner. Herbal Essences. For those of you who are my age or older, you may remember the clear bottles with the floral background, and the “You make me feel like a natural woman” commercials. Then, one day, […]
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 woke up Sunday morning with rainy skies, but a joyful spirit as I packed up my car for my 10 minute drive to Natirar for Courtney and Calvin’s wedding. Kelly and I met these two (well four, because we had some adorable puppy props!) in Liberty State Park, where we photographed their engagement session. […]
A Classic, Intimate Summer Wedding It’s not very often that I get to photograph intimate weddings, but they are some of my favorites! From the moment I walked through the door at Brittney’s childhood home, I felt welcome and so comfortable with her sisters, who made up her bridal party, along with her baby niece. […]
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 […]
