I am an award-winning, NYC-based photographer specializing in artistic wedding photojournalism, family portraiture and more. My work has been exhibited throughout the New York metropolitan area and extensively published in national magazines. This blog gives me the opportunity to share some of my more recent photography, tips & tricks of the trade, and a variety of thoughts about the fields in which I work. Please feel free to chime in or contact me directly!
HANDS IN THE AIR / JUMP AROUND! There’s no greater opportunity for capturing moments than on the dance floor. Here are some of my favorites!
NEW YORK WEDDING VENUES (PART 2): Building on a post a few weeks ago (PART 1), here I showcase four more wonderful places to host a wedding. Two are rather intimate spaces, 91 and Alger House, both located in the West Village. The other two are grand venues with ideal outdoor capacity located just outside of Manhattan, Wainwright House and Whitby Castle.

MITCHELL & NATE’s PRE-WEDDING PARTY: Sometimes referred to as a rehearsal dinner, this gathering took place the evening before the wedding — at the same site as the wedding was to take place the following day — the site of a wonderful restaurant on Seneca Lake called Dano’s. It’s located the Finger Lakes region, an area of New York that Mitchell & Nate are particularly fond of.
The patio of the restaurant can be scene in one the photos to the left and additional tents were erected out back overlooking the lake. It was a wonderful weekend — the weather and the setting really coming together for some lovely moments.
NEW YORK CITY: An iconic backdrop (PART 2)
Last week I posted PART 1 of this series. PART 2 reflects weddings in New York in a more subtle/quirky way.
JOSIE & PANKTI GET MARRIED: Wonderful wedding I shot last summer in Provincetown! I posted a few photos from this event on my previous blog, but the warm, sunny weather we’ve experienced lately — for the most part — has me longing for another trip to the Cape.
CATERER: Ancora Organic Catering Company (owner Raina Stefani shown in one photo carrying ice into the venue)
ADAM & DAVON GET MARRIED: This couple was married a week ago today in New York City at City Hall — the first full day of spring. Both Adam and Davon are, originally, from the Midwest now living in Queens. By day, one is lawyer and the other is a marketing professional. They both like living on “this side of the East River and wanted that to come through” in their photos. Thus, to commemorate their union, I shot this handsome couple at various locations in Long Island City and mainly in the Socrates Sculpture Park on the East River.
ROBIN & ART GET MARRIED: In addition to how much Robin and Art love each other, their grown children also love each other and get along fabulously – it’s like a modern-day Brady Bunch.
CATERING: The Upper Crust
VENUE: 91
FLOWERS: Pennington Flowers
DJ: Scratch Weddings
MITCHELL & NATE ARE ENGAGED: This handsome couple with a wonderful sense of humor is due to get married in May. Mitchell (in the glasses) is in the culinary arts and Nate is a physician.
