Gray and Baby T

I love this family! I have been photographing Gray since she was 6 months old (1, 2, 3) , now she is 4!! Time flies. She also has a new baby brother who I could just eat up. Talk about the roundest, chubbiest cheeks and gorgeous blue eyes you have ever seen. It’s fun to see how much gray looks like her mommy and T looks like his daddy. I love getting to spend time capturing families and their day to day lives- I wish I got to do more of it. So, if you have kids or friends with kids tell them to give me a call or even gift them a session. What would be more cherished and needed than pics of your family?

I LOVE this shot. How many siblings just stare at each other? What is going through their minds. Baby T could not take his eyes off of Gray when she was around.

Musician photos- Tim McGlone and the Turn

A few weeks ago, I went to the National Underground and photographed Tim McGlone and the Turn. I met Tim a few years ago and was really excited to come hear them play and capture some cool pics of them performing. The National Underground is a very small club/bar in the East Village. Downstairs in the basement is a small room with a bar and a stage area with two stage lights. A really bright pink one which illuminates the singer and pretty much nothing else and a red one that lit stage right. The poor keyboardist was jammed behind a post in the dark. It was a typical tiny bar in the village where good and not so good bands play. It was definitely fun and I hope to get to do more of these types of photos. Ultimately, I’d like to follow a band from practice, load in, backstage, performance, studio and everything in between. I really love capturing the whole story and getting to know my subjects. Enjoy!

Here is a video clip that I shot while I was playing around with my Canon 5D MKII. The audio in the club was not great.

New York Historical Society – Lindsay Landman Events

Just before the new year, Lindsay Landman of Lindsay Landman Events called me to come and photograph details for a Bat Mitzvah she designed at the New York Historical Society. Lindsay is very talented, always connecting with her client and working to bring beautiful designs to life. I loved the fuschia, polka dots and lime green color palette. She also mixed in some candy which is always very yummy. I really wanted to steal the jelly bellies off the cocktail tables.

This was the place card table- I like the hanging photos which give a nice personal touch and reminds me of candy. She also used gumball filled lucite trays with rainbow lollipops as the seating cards.

Here was the cocktail area which had vases filled with jelly belly jelly beans. It took all self control to not reach in and eat them. They are one of my favorite candies. I also love the teal walls in the historical society which is very elegant. Of course anyone that uses my branding colors has a special place in my heart.cocktails

The main room! Gorgeous! Lindsay used long tables with fuschia tablecloths and polka dot runners. The colors had so much life and tied the candy theme together well without being cheasy. I also loved that she used different colored flowers in different sizes. The ball shape was reminiscent of the polka dotted runner.

Waterworks Restaurant – Kim and Micah

Kim and Micah had a gorgeous, intimate wedding at the Waterworks Restaurant. I absolutely love this place. The outside is to die for and the inside is beautiful too. Plus, where else would you have Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies dropping in on your wedding. Yes, I said Ryan Howard. He didn’t even know he was actually invited.

Another fabulous element to the wedding was getting to work with Andy of First Floor Films. They rock at wedding cinematography and actually provided footage to channel 6 for their news story.

The Sofitel has such cool artwork- I had to use it for the shoesKim and Micah Wedding

Kim is extremely allergic to cats and dogs but loves dogs immensely. So I bought her the next best thing, plastic pets!

Thank you to Nicole Polk for being my second shooter and getting the cool photos of the guys getting ready and this next one outside
