New York couple’s wedding at TRUST

Sofia — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 18:41:54 +0000

Some of you may remember the sneak peeks from Meredith and Jacob’s wedding. I am really excited to share the rest of their wedding. Meredith and Jacob had a beautiful jewish ceremony. Judith Campbell, Campbell Studios, designed the chuppah and decor while a friend of Jacob’s family painted the inside of the chuppah. They then ventured upstairs for some heartfelt toasts from a very close family friend of Meredith’s who had actually given the toast at her own parent’s wedding, Jacob’s friend, Meredith’s sister (who made everyone cry) and Jacob, himself. I love the looks they gave each other during his toast, the love between them is so evident. Then dancing and laughing all night long. Of course, the cake looked and tasted fabulous. It had to because Meredith is a pastry chef. Subpar cake would be just wrong.

Wedding collaborators:

New York wedding photographer: Frank and Frantz – Romantica Yacht wedding

Sofia — Fri, 22 Jul 2011 18:43:05 +0000

Frank and Frantz had a beautiful intimate wedding on the private yacht, Romantica, in New York harbor. It was a beautiful day full of love and fun. Frank a fashion and editorial photographer and Frantz a broadway performer and model have been together over 20 years. Talk about love and commitment! Thank you to Steve Rosen for having me come and photograph with him and share in this celebration.

Frantz’s sis and bff! I think this is how everyone looked all night. I just love to see the excitement and genuine pleasure friends and family get when 2 people make a promise to each other and share it with them

The handsome couple walking in together

They gave each guest a rock. The guest then blessed the rock with their well wishes and wisdom then everyone came up and put their rock in a vase.

During the toasts

Frantz sang to Frank their favorite song.

Check out the rest of the images below because you will see so many intimate moments shared by all. To me, weddings are about two people in love that want to share their love with the rest of the world and to include their friends and family along the journey. I wish you both so many more years of love and support on this journey through life.

New York Engagement session: Get to Know You session on Houston Street New York

Cindy and Brent love movies. They especially love sneaking sandwiches into the movie theater. She says she feels like a rebel bringing in contraband.

Cindy is a “closet” cabaret singer, she did do one show but she has an amazing voice and just never pursued it as a career. Do we have another Susan Boyle on our hands? Cindy is a natural performer, completely at ease in front of the camera. She has lots of energy but also very easy going. Really just a dream to work with.

Brent is more quiet, witty and reserved. I did not get to meet him until our Get to Know You (engagement) session and he was such a great sport. He was willing to do anything Cindy or I asked him to, even if he didn’t “get it”. What a good sport! By the end, he was much more relaxed and on the wedding day he just had fun with it. Of course, it helped that Cindy looked amazing on the wedding day.

Since they love movies we headed down to the Sunshine Cinema. It used to be the Houston Hippodrome and a vaudeville theater. The facade and marquee were restored to it’s original artistic roots. I drove past it one day last summer and knew I had to use it for a session. So glad it was theres. We then ventured up to the meatpacking district for some pretty light.

I love this image because of the guy walking by checking them out. I shot probably 10 of these images with people walking by and no one even bothered to look up. Everyone just kept going- typical New York! =) The other funny thing is when I was looking closely at the movies popping up in the background or the movies playing at the cinema, they are some of the most ironic things in the image. I mean who wants the shining in their engagement photos? HAH!

Hey, caught another guy checking them out!

Random New York

Back in January, I made a decision to go out at least 2x a month and just photograph whatever I felt like. Well, I did it that one day and have not done it since. So, now I am deciding to go out again today and just take photos. Observe, watch, feel the world around me. The hardest thing about doing that is not judging yourself. Allowing yourself to just take whatever photo you feel like because at that moment something triggered you to capture it. I want to challenge myself to not just shoot weddings and events but other things that inspire me too. Whether anyone will like it or not. So here is my first series of random images from that cool day in January.

Merry Christmas, Happy holidays and all that jazz
