Lindsay & Jason

Today was just beautiful! I have been wanting to do a shoot at the High Line for some time now, so I was excited when Lindsay and Jason were up for the idea. While our first attempt got rained out, we could not have asked for a better November morning than we got today. It wasn’t too cold and the sky was amazingly blue and clear! I had a really fantastic time working with them and I’m so excited with how our photos came out.

Enjoy the sneak peak, guys. Thanks for a great morning!

Hello everyone!

I’m currently in Jamaica enjoying a bit of rest and relaxation after photographing an amazing destination wedding. It’s been a bumpy (very) ride here, but I’m happy to say that I’m getting a bit of rest and things have definitely calmed down.

A few weeks ago I was contacted by a writer for Urbanbaby.com for an interview about my kids photography. I’m so happy to share with you that the story has posted!

Please check it out here: You Ought To Be In Pictures

Please stay tuned as I hope to post Jamaica wedding photos today as well.

Adelaide’s Bat Mitzvah

Thank you rain for holding out (so far)! I’m on a bit of a lunch break from my day with Adelaide, her family and friends, so I figured I’d post a photo taken at the temple as a ‘holding page’ for the full event.

Stay tuned…

Charlie

I’ve been working tons this weekend (…sigh), but before I head off to Buttermilk to have a Sunday night drink and try to breathe before the week starts up, I wanted to post a few images from Friday’s photo shoot.

It was so wonderful to have an outdoor shoot on such a beautiful day – a nice change of pace. What made it even more wonderful was my subject, Charlie. Charlie was a joy to be around and a pleasure to photograph. She has so much energy and personality and the camera loves her (whether she agrees with that statement or not, it’s the truth!).

Here are a few favorites. When I get a chance to play a bit, I’ll post a few more.

Enjoy and thanks for a great shoot, Charlie!

Marley + Announcements

Hello friends!

It has been a long time, I know! I haven’t been slacking in the area of taking photos, just in the area of blogging them!

I photographed the adorable (and so so tiny) Marley a few weeks ago. Here are some of my favorite images and the announcement designed by my talented sister!

Congratulations, again, Seth and Janine!

St. Baldrick’s Foundation

I am honored to have had the opportunity to photograph participants at Northport’s 2009 St. Baldrick’s Foundation fundraiser again this year. If you haven’t heard of St. Baldrick’s, it is the world’s largest volunteer-driven fundraising event for childhood cancer research.

I photographed over 150 ’shavees’ both adults and kids, boys and girls.Congratulations to everyone who participated. Hope to see you again in 2010!

Eren & Sydney

Bright and early this morning I headed to Williamsburg, Brooklyn to photograph Eren & Sydney. We started out on the stoop where Sydney proposed to Eren and moved our way around the neighborhood.

Once again, it was absolutely freezing (I’m beginning to think that’s an engagement shoot requirement now!), but you’d never know it by looking at the photos. Eren and Sydney were a lot of fun to be around – thanks for a fun shoot and congrats on your engagement!

Flash Sync…

Yesterday I traveled up to Connecticut to spend some time being a nerd about photography things with my good friend Susan (http://www.gemineyeimages.com/). We spent the day in a gorgeous (and huge) barn photographing together. We synced our flashes using the Canon wireless transmitter… played with gels and hair lights… and had lots of good belly laughs.

I’ve only had a quick glance at the images, but thought I’d get a jump on blogging them (trying to be good at keeping up!) Here is the second image I shot of our lovely (and patient!) model Ina.

Edyln

Today Edyln came by my home studio for a headshot shoot. A big ‘thank you’ to her for putting up with the trains, which normally run well, but of course not on a day when I have two headshot appointments coming! Anyway, I had a great time working with Edyln and listening to Spamalot (her choice of music and it was great!).

And she says she doesn’t consider herself photogenic!

Parker, Rory & Hudson

This morning I headed back to Brooklyn to photograph Parker, Rory and Hudson. Camera shy these three were not! I had such a blast playing with them – the time flew by. Here are a few of my favorite shots. Thanks for such a fun morning guys!
