Engagement shoot with Vivian and Victor

Some seriously gorgeous weather today for the first of my free engagement shoots!  Vivian and Victor are getting married exactly one year from today, so what better way to commemorate that date than with an engagement photo session??  This couple was so much fun, and I could seriously feel the love radiating off of them. 

We had originally planned to shoot on the Brooklyn Bridge, but the combination of amazing weather and the 125th anniversary of the bridge brought out some serious crowds.  We decided to stick to City Hall Park and its surrounding areas, finishing up with a couple of shots at the entryway to the pedestrian path on the bridge. 

The lighting was absolutely perfect, and the three of us had a lot of fun.  It was a fairly quick shoot (about an hour), but we got a lot of great shots.  Some of my favorites are below.  Enjoy!



After our shoot, I decided to brave the crowds and walked about 1/3 of the way over the bridge to get some more shots...


Before today's shoot, I snapped a couple of photos which very quickly became favorites.  I think they really show the diversity of NYC very nicely.  That's about it for tonight!








Shoot With Tini

Last weekend I was lucky enough to shoot with the lovely and talented Tini.  We had a ton of fun shooting in Central Park, despite the count down to rain.  We're hoping to collaborate again in the future, and I can't wait!  

Below you'll find a few of my favorites from the day:





We took a lot of photos in front of the bridge in the next shot...I'm thinking it would make a great background for an engagement shoot...hmmmm...




What I've been up to...

Within the past few weeks I've had some GREAT photo shoots!  First was Matthew's Christening, then I got to shoot Tini in Central Park, and today was an engagement shoot with Vivian and Victor in City Hall Park. 

I've got some sorting to do, but I'll have some shots and more info up soon!

Back again!

Due to some unforseen circumstances, I was away for a couple of weeks...But I'm back now!

My free offer has expired (and my calendar for May and June are pretty full!), but I am offering some great deals on portrait and event photography, so be sure to ask!

5 of my photos are now on display, and for sale, at Hidden Talent Art Gallery on Staten Island. If you're in the neighborhood, stop by! www.hiddentalentartandframing.com. They've got some great work in there by some very talented artists.

Recently, I had the honor of shooting the Christening of Matthew, who is the son of my good friends Glen and Celina. The day was perfect and Matthew was so good! I'll post some proof soon :) This weekend I'm working (weather permitting) with a lovely model in Central Park. Can't wait!

It's going to be a busy couple of months for me, but I'm excited for the challenges to come! Looking forward to bringing you some new photos soon!
