Deven and Josh - November 9, 2007

I had the privilege of shooting this wedding with Michelle Arlotta a very talented photographer. Deven and Josh are very good friends with Michelle and her sister. Deven and Josh are probably two of the nicest individuals one can meet. Deven is a super sweetheart and Josh is Mr.Laidback. They celebrated their wedding at the Stroudsmoor Country Inn in Pennsylvania.
What a scenic and gorgeous venue. It was also a COLD day and these guys were troopers.

It was also several days after Halloween so the pumpkins were still out and of course Josh had to have a black cat who loved to be photographed.

The cat whose name escapes me wanted a portrait next to the window and of course of his good side. Hey I'm a photog what am I supposed to do. I like to give animals some love especially having had a cat while growing up. You go little kitty!

Deven had a little wedding day note for her future hubby. How sweet! So sweet it gave me a cavity! LOL!

Here's the cat wanting to try on Josh's shirt and Tux.

Brotherly Love! We were in PA, I know not Philly but close enough I guess.

One of my favorites from the day. Just love the rustic shack and the guys looking smooth like butta!
Let me tell you Deven had a special GLOW about her. She was simply radiant and beautiful. There was just a certain calm about her that was magical almost.

This was a cool bridal party. Funny thing is the girls are Deven's sisters and the guys are Josh's brothers. I thought that was pretty cool!


Deven and Josh just being Deven and Josh.

As my little 2 1/2 year old would say, "daddy yummy, yummy in my tummy." I had to go there.

These little guys were so delicious it was sinful. Needless to say I had a few and some for the long drive back.

I think these are the images that say it all.

Thank you Deven and Josh for a great time. You guys are special and I wish you nothing but the best. Congrats and best wishes to you and your newest little member. May god bless you all!

Mary and Steve - November 3, 2007

Mary and Steve what a wonderful couple. You guys were so amazing and great to photograph. These guys had me laughing and cracking up the whole day. Mary and Steve and their ceremony and reception at the famed and historic Riverside Church on the Upper West Side. One of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen. You can feel the history as you walk through the halls. It was an amazing experience. The reception was downstairs and it was awesome. It was a party with non stop dancing.

Enough of that let's take a look at some of the beautiful images from Mary and Steve's wedding.

Let's start with Steve who was their just before Mary arrived. The interior was just out of this world. This Church is HUGE, I mean huggangamous (yeah I just made that up so don't bother looking it up)!

One of the little guys just hanging out before the ceremony. This kid was a riot!

Here he is with his cronies

Mary and the girls.

For a church the light that was available was actually amazing. Mary looked absolutely FAB.

I thought it to be crazy to have arches like these in a church through the halls. Are you kidding me. A photog's dream, good light and great interior inside a church!

I caught Mary peeking just before walking down the aisle.

I must confess that during the ceremony this kid and I were playing a little hide and seek. I got you.

Mary and Steve after the I dos.
Mary and Steve wanted a huge group photo of all there guests. Boy, this is a huge group photo. Probably one of the biggest I have taken at a wedding. Talk about a group photo.

Mary was very emotional during her first dance with her new hubby.

.....But she was also a barrel of laughs.

Mary and Steve were really cool and relaxed in front of the camera. As I mentioned earlier, they had me cracking up all day.

Mary was working it and doing her thing in front of the camera. You go GIRL!

Mary and Steve getting hot and heavy in the elevator. Almost had to tell them to get a room.
Mary and Steve thanks for a fun and crazy time. It was a pleasure photographing your wedding and the two of you. Best Wishes and Congrats!

Zuleida and Sandro - October 28, 2007

Zuleida and Sandro came to my studio via a recommendation from Mary's mother. If you scroll down the blog, I photographed Mary's wedding on Sept. 1, 2007. Zuleida and Sandro are one of the nicest couples you will ever meet. Zuleida was one sweet bride and so happy on her wedding day. I must say that we have had warmer days in January than that day in October. IT WAS COLD! To Zuleida and Sandro's credit, they were awesome and their smiles truly warmed us all who were at their wedding. They were so happy that the emotions and tears of joy were everywhere. Their ceremony and reception were both held at Patriot Hills Country Club. Patriot Hills is a great venue and so much fun to photograph at.

Let's take a look at some of the moments from their wedding. Starting of course with the beautiful bride.

If you don't know by now, I can't go through a wedding without capturing a little and this flower girl was adorable.

Can't forget about the ringbearer and the fellas.


Sandro and his brothers with their game face on. LOL!



The ladies on their way to getting photos taken. There's something about the bride and her girls walking together and having her dress held. As I always say, "It's all about the Bride."

This is probably my favorite moment of the day. This is Zuleida and Sandro about to see each other for the first time on their wedding day. The emotions displayed by the two of them were real and unforgetable.


Now for the lovely couple.



We have to make it offical people! The ceremony.


Ahhh, the first dance!

Zuleida and Sandro once again thank you for a wonderful time. Your wedding was fantabulous! You guys were awesome and troopers on a cold October day but your smiles and hearts definitely made the day feel warm and fuzzy! I wish you guys much love and happiness. Congrats!
