06.29.08 - Abby & Neil were once two strangers living on the same block, and six years later, they blossomed into two neighbors who fell in love and are getting married. Their Bridal Shower / House Warming party was held intimately with close friends and family in their new home. Abby's maid of honor, Joy, did an unbelievable job of turning their backyard into a festive space for us to all spend the afternoon together. It was an amazing afternoon filled with laughter, music, games, and delicious Caribbean food. Abby & Neil: Congratulations on your upcoming wedding, and new home!

Abby & Neil's Bridal Shower & House Warming Party
Mubina's Henna Party
06.26.08 - We met Mubina in a beautiful loft that overlooked NYC. It was really awesome to watch the Henna artist throughout the night. The details, the art, it's spectacular when they paint on the designs. I was shooting along side the super-awesome & friendly Punam Bean. Enjoy the images, and check back soon for images from Mubina and Andrew's wedding! :-)
Jelly Beans!
The details are amazing:
Everyone was having a great night:

Cynthia + Nick's Wedding!
05.31.08 - Cynthia & Nick show us how the times have changed: they first met on match.com, and now, after several wonderful years together, they are tying the knot! I started the day off at Nick's house, while the very awesome Jason Groupp documented Cynthia's morning. Later on, we all met at St. Agnes Church, and then headed over to the Hempstead Golf & Country Club to celebrate.
This was just too cute, nothing better than a little teamwork:

Everybody was so happy and enjoying the evening:

Kerri + Asa: Engaged!
Yesterday, we took a trip to Long Beach, NY to meet Kerri & Asa for their very special engagement session. We started off on the boardwalk, hit the beach, and then ended up in the water. It was an absolute blast! After their engagement session, we went out to dinner, where we got caught up in the middle of a thunder storm, yikes! I'm so glad everybody got home safely. Check out some of their amazing photos below...
What a great looking couple! We are all SUPER excited about their wedding coming up in August! :-)
We were having so much fun out there!
Under the boardwalk!
It's not hard to tell these two are in L-O-V-E:
I think Asa was waiting for this all day!
They are naturals in front of the camera:
I love the whole mood of this one:

Marisa + Michael's Wedding!
05.25.08 - Marisa & Michael picked one of the most beautiful days of the year to get married. I had the privilege to shoot alongside my friend, mentor, and one of NYC's top 10 wedding photographers, Jason Groupp. Jason and I met Marisa at her hotel room where the excitement was high, and everybody was getting ready for her big day. After Marisa and Michael saw each other for the first time, we headed over to The Planting Fields for some spectacular photos, and then partied the night away at The Crest Hollow Country Club.
Mom making sure that tie looks perfect:
