Warming up the winter months with Lila and Nick!

Winter weddings have this special "cozy" flavor to them. It's just fantastic to have a reception in warm, dimly lit room while it's cold and snowing outside. So was Lila and Nicholas' celebration. Set in picturesque Tarrytown, NY at the Tappan Hill Mansion it was a fabulous "season opener" for us! Monika Broz shot with me and - as always - delivered beautiful coverage. The below selection is a mix of our favorites:























































Lila and Nick! It was wonderful to be a part of your day and start our season with the two of you! Thank You so much!

Engagement session, but this time... LIVE!

A few months before the end of the year I was quite convinced Emily and Peter's wedding would be the last one we were photographing this season. Indeed - it was, at least if you mean a whole wedding day...but we couldn't have anticipated what was still coming our way. I was contacted by Joshua only about a month before his planned event. When I found out we were getting hired to photographed an actual engagement session I thought it would be a wonderful way to end the season. The most amazing element was that the bride to be was completely unaware of what was going to happen. Joshua masked the whole operation with a family gathering. When Elisa arrived to see his soon-to-be fiance she wasn't in the best mood. Even the location was not what she really expected...but when the whole mystery was revealed and she was presented with a ring and THE QUESTION - her mood improved dramaticaly :) Well... I guess sometimes it's all right to justify the means with a spectacular end! The arena for Joshua's secret succesful suprise was the famous Oheka Castle in Long Island. Myself and Monika Broz had the pleassure to witness and capture this very special event:







































Joshua - you are the master planner! Congratulations to both of you and once again thank you so much for having us over, a wonderful meal and great time all around!

"I married the man of my dreams on the most beautiful day..."

These were the actual words Emily said to me at the end of hers and Peter's wedding night. When we met for the first time, Emily described the vision of her wedding as "wintery and candlelit". With these words in mind I have envisioned the wedding day and prepared myself for low light shooting and...snowflakes :) Indeed, there were candles and there was snow. With a scent of magic in the air that accompanied us all day long both myself and Monika Broz delivered the following selection of images from the wonderful night at Alger House in Manhattan:



















































Emily and Peter - thank you so much! Your day truly couldn't have been more perfect! We had much fun working with both of you and meeting the families!

The art and Artifacts of your wedding day.

A few months back I was interviewed by wonderful Alison Nguyen of the Sheffield School in New York for an article on choosing your wedding day photographer... Enjoy!
