If my sessions were candles, and they each had a scent (bear with me here) - Jessica and Vinny's would be apple-pumpkin-spice-autumn-EXPLOSION! I met up with these guys at Vinny's Grandmother's beautiful home in Brookville to shoot some engagement photos. Really proud of this set! Why hello there you gorgeous, obnoxiously attractive young people in love! All this beautiful beautifulness and THIS will probably be the shot that ends up in my website portfolio. You guys are cool :-) bling! Jessica and Vinny, thanks for an enjoyable morning and happy planning to you both!!
Katherine and Chris's super chill engagement session came in anticipation of their July 4th 2014 nuptials on Long Island. I had a great time with these guys and especially Maggie, their adorable puppy girl :-) va-va-voom! I have the best looking clients around. Here comes Maggie, the most photogenic dog ever! Look at that stone! LOVE this ring. The triple prongs are so unique. See you kids next summer!! Happy planning :-)
I had SO much fun taking pics of the very ENGAGED Ryan and Melanie this morning around their Forest Hills apartment. Ryan is one of my 20,000 Dunbar cousins. Funnily enough Ryan looks a lot like my brother Jimmy. When I mentioned the resemblance, Melanie laughed and said "you Dunbars ALL look alike.." IRREGARDLESS I really love this next shot and will boldly declare FAVORITE! It was so nice strolling/chatting/shooting with these guys away from the chaos of our massive Dunbar gatherings. Also, are they not the cutest couple ever? Slow dancing on the Queens Blvd median! They do this every Sunday morning... Photo hunt! A creepy crawler totally photo-bombed my ring shot. See him? By the way LOVEEE the cut on that diamond! Beauteous! Ryan and Melanie, it was so fun "hanging" with you guys. Happy planning! PS...sweet guns, Ry.
Meet Kerry and Jason. They are engaged to be married and are the pure definition of a "ying and yang" couple. Jason is hilarious and a little kooky and Kerry is sensible and sweet. He makes her laugh... A LOT. And man oh man do they love each other... The heat index was well over 100 degrees on the day we roamed central park. Jason came prepared with a walking map of attractions we wanted to photograph. First and last time I will probably ever allow a client to carry my bags! Desperate times folks.... We finished our session on the Great Lawn - which just so happens to be where Kerry and Jason got engaged! So cute. I CANNOT WAIT to photograph this wedding. See you guys in a few months!
I met up with Andrea and Joe bright and early for some engagement shoot fun. These guys are really good sports and were excellent models! And they're freakishly good-looking as well, which I never mind :-) Enjoy! Hey Andrea, every Abercrombie and Fitch model ever called, they want their FACE back. Beautiful girlfriend! See you crazy kids at your wedding in November!!!!! CAN'T WAIT!
Hey friends! I shot Lydia and Kieran's engagement session tonight in Brooklyn and woah baby did we end up with a bunch of super fun images... HOW CUTE ARE THEY!? Lydia and I went to high school together - although we didn't really know each other. But when you grow up in FP, you just kinda know everyone...smallest.town.eva. My love for this next series of shots knows no bounds...the rain held off and we got some amazing cloud cover and resulting muted light. YUM! Lydia's Mom gave her this locket as an engagement gift. And guess what? I already forget the Italian to English translation of the saying. I AM MEMENTO. Oh hi, I love this ring. Cute!! Ending with this one. The shot that I have aptly nicknamed "for the parents." Lydia and Kieran I literally CAN'T WAIT to shoot your wedding in a few months! You guys are so up my alley :-)
The weather for Bridget and Mike's engagement session was BEAUTIFUL! Had so much fun with these guys :-) Roosevelt Island may just be NY's best kept secret. Amazing scenery and a super cute couple? This photographer was a happy camper! Oh you know....just chillin in the cherry blossoms. How cute are they!? In front of the hospital where they both worked (and met)... LOVE.LOVE.LOVE. these next two! The Notebook! Or Dirty Dancing? I forget which we decided... Bridget and Mike, I had so much fun hanging with you guys!! Congrats on the engagement and happy planning!!
Arely and I worked together at my very first job out of college and on our lunch break we would sometimes (all the time) sit in my car and talk about what we wanted our engagement rings and weddings to be like...not because we were crazy...because we are GIRLS....and that is just what girls do, k? :-) ANYWAY, fast forward 3 or 4 years and SHE AND JEFF ARE ENGAGED!!!! YAYY!!!! Oh, and I've also started a photography business. Put these things together and you've got Arely and Jeff's ADORABLE engagement session!! Today was the unofficial first day of spring and the weather and sunlight was amazzzinnggg! I have literally never met anyone who laughs more than Arely. Hang around her and you will feel like the FUNNIEST person alive! Love this next set of 3. The exact same angle and posing, but 3 completely different shots. Aw shux, you guys sure are cute! Tres chic! I love polka dots, but I can't pull them off. Arely in polka dots?? Pulling. It. Off. The usual bonus points were awarded for laying in the grass.... Soooo the sun started to set and HOT DAYUMMM we got some gorgeous light! Congrats Arely and Jeff!!! Can't wait to shoot your wedding dudes :-)
HEYOOOO! Sometimes choosing photos for the blog is like a Mother choosing favorites among her children. When I was editing Nina and Joe's engagement session I was all "but I love them allll"....here is the resulting reallllyyyly long blog post: Nina is pretty hideous looking, no? GORGEOUS! I feel like this next set kind of sums up Nina and Joe as a couple... No shortage of AMAZING backdrops at this super cool Long Island City location... Cuteness! LOVE this shot. Warming up after our session with some yummy cappuccino. A) Congrats Nina and Joe!!! You are my most favoritest engagement session ever!!
B) Can't wait to shoot your wedding this Labor Day!!! |
