Kendra and Dave at the Manhattan Penthouse in NYC

Last year ended with a great wedding and it's only fitting that 2008 started with a bang. Kendra and Dave were absolutely wonderful and awesome to work with. They were so happy and definitely in LOVE! The weather was ridiculous for January it was so nice out. The ceremony and the reception took place at the fabulous Manhattan Penthouse. The views were amazing from the top floor as well as the wedding. I also had the privilege to have one of my good friends help me out who is also a very talented photographer Millie Batista from The Studio Weddings.
Millie worked with Dave and the guys. She is a tough cookie and always gets the guys to cooperate and get great stuff.

So let's take a look at some of those wonderful moments from their wedding. Kendra was absolutely beautiful and had such wonderful glow to her.



The bridal suite was tight but I managed to get an overhead shot of the good looking ladies helping Kendra with her dress.

Kendra's smile was infectious that day!

She took some killer portraits as well. Her smile was just killing me and yet it was all naturale!

I just love this shot because it gives a sense of where we are in relation to the city. Boy were we up there.

Here are some of Millie's awesome images with Dave and the guys. She definitely worked the city for her background.

Now the ceremony. It was beautiful.

Now for some killa images of Kendra and Dave.

Hot Hot Hot !

Because the weather was so nice for this time of year we had to take it to the city streets.



These guys were all smiles throughout the day.


Kendra and Dave, we thank you for such a wonderful time. You guys rocked it out and made our jobs that much easier. We wish you guys the best on your new lives together. Way to kick off the new year to a wonderful season. Thanks!

Julie & Andrew - December 29, 2007

This was my last wedding of 2007 and it was a great one. Julie and Andrew are two just wonderful individuals who are just full of life and of love and it showed on their wedding day. They married each other in Staten Island. The reception was at the Renaissance. Julie was all about keeping things simple yet classy and elegant. Andrew is an officer in the Army and was sporting his uniform to the nines. It was actually a beautiful day for this time of the year. we were able to do somethings and have some fun outdoors at a near by park.

As always one of my favorite parts of the day is the bridal prep and Julie did not disappoint. Julie was very comfortable in front of the camera and I just let her do her thing. So let's take a look.

Her dad was super cool and smooth. he helped his beautiful daughter out of the limo and guess who was there to capture it yours truly.

Andrew was overcome by emotion when he first saw Julie for the first time as she walked down the aisle with her dad.



Andrew showed us all is range of emotions from tears to cheers.

Julie and Andrew were very natural in front of the camera.

These two newlyweds were all smiles the whole day.

Andrew and the fellas.



Some portraits of the handsome couple.

And some of them together. These two were a sexy little couple I tell ya.

The first dance was very sweet and emotional.

Andrew's parents were also emotional as they witnessed Julie and Andrew dance as husband and wife for the first time.

The two are cracking up because Andrew's brother gave one of the funniest and most memorable Best Man speeches ever. You just had to be there for that one.

Of course the little ones.

Julie and Andrew thank you so much for a wonderful time. You are both very special people and I wish you guys nothing but the best. God Bless you both and your families. Andrew Bets of luck to you in Iraq and to all the men and women in the armed forces who are away from us especially during these holidays. We want you back home soon!

Happy Holidays to you all and thank you to all my wonderful couples who help make 2007 a great year for me. It has been a pleasure and an honor to be able to capture all those special and wonderful memories. For my 2008 couples, look out because we're going to have some good times. Looking forward to capturing your moments as they unfold.

THANK YOU ALL!!!!!

Amy and Andreas - December 15, 2007

What a couple and what a wild wedding this was. There was everything in this wedding considering that it was a small and intimate wedding of about 12 guests total. Amy was absolutely stunning and Andreas looked smooth. They wanted a NYC wedding and boy did they get one. From having to take cabs to the first stop to getting a limo driver who never drove in NYC to losing quests along the way to getting stopped by the cops and to getting out of the limo in the middle of 5th Avenue during the holiday season it was a wedding to remember. The ceremony was at the famous Riverside Church which I was recently at. The reception well that was quite interesting as Amy and Andreas wanted to make stops throughout NYC and then have dinner with there guests at the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center. The tour of the city was wild and crazy but so much fun. It all didn't work out as planned but the memories will definitely last a lifetime.

Let's start with Amy getting ready at the the Riverside Church. She looked GLAM and FAB when I arrived. We started right away with her bridal portraits. So here are a few.


I was able to grab this shot right after we were done with her photos. There is something about this image. There is something classy, elegant and sexy about this image. I just love it.
And of course the handsome groom.

The best man was a riot. This was right before Amy walked down the aisle.

Can you feel the love between these two. Hello! They were so in love I have to say.

I think this image saids it all. When you have someone you love look into your eyes with such happiness. You just know they're the one!

As I mentioned before, The Riverside Church is a beautiful church with so many spots that it's a photog's dream. The lighting is just awsome. So here are a few of the lovely couple.

Those arches what can I tell ya!

This was the first stop that Amy and Andreas wanted to stop for some apps. Boy these were delicious apps I have to say. Gigino was down in Battery Park. Great little place. Each stop that Amy and Andreas wanted to make was significant in their relationship.

This was on the way out to the limo before heading to the Seaport for a photo with the Brooklyn Bridge as the backdrop.

Amy and Andreas with the Brooklyn Bridge as the backdrop. This was at the top of the list for Andreas. Something he always wanted.

The evening ended at Rockefeller Center with the huge Rockefellar tree. It was an awesome way to end the evening. Rockefeller during the holiday season is just so iconic.
And of course the tree from a distance. Talk about feeling the holiday spirit.

Amy and Andreas thank you for an absolutely wonderful experience one that I will never forget. You guys made it through this crazy but yet fun and memorable wedding. I am pretty sure you will have stories to tell your children and grandchildren for years to come. God Bless you both and may your marriage be just as fun.
