I LOVE NEW YORK.  Really, I love it more than any place ever.  The energy, the million different backdrops, the Meat Market, Chelsea Market, SoHo, Village, 5th Ave (the best for shopping) and so on.  When I get the opportunity to work with my brides and grooms in NYC for their weddings and/or engagement sessions I jump for the chance.  (It doesn't hurt that my family is there and I always get to see them and stay with them as well).

Max and Jen were terrific models.   I always ask my couples what their hobbies are, their loves, and dislikes as well as how they met.  What they had in common was shopping (Yay), the love of the city, Hanging out with each other.  Max is a huge football fan and Sundays are his day for the game.  You can't tear him away so we planned their engagement session on a very early Sunday morning.  Jen is a fashion girl.  She loves her shoes and as you will see we worked those beautiful shoes into the session to incorporate her "hobby".  Can't blame the girl.

After the session Max and Jen viewed these images and they each had a favorite of each other.  They asked me to put together a custom piece of art that would mesh the two images together as one.  This image came out to exactly what they were looking for and now they will have this in a fabulous canvas print in their home.  Here it is!

Here are some of the other highlights:

I love Veronique in Brookline Massachusetts - It is a fabulous place to photograph a wedding.  The atmosphere is nothing short of elegant!  Aviva and Steve had a beautiful Jewish Ceremony on site at the Veronique that was so traditional to the Jewish heritage.  All of their personal touches that made their wedding unique to them were perfect.  I just loved the votives and the vintage yet modern feel to the table settings.  It was a great combination of the two.  Check it out!

They met after two families had already begun. Two wonderful people with several beautiful children. I could not be more happy for this large extended modern day "Brady Bunch". Julie and Dave have the sweetest love and the most soothing parenting towards each others children. This wedding was more than just a wedding but a completion of a family union...

I wish you "All" the best love and luck in your future as the MOSES family. Congratulations Dave and Julie.

I had a really great time working with this couple.  They are so adorable and sweet that it made the session an extreme pleasure.  We started off working with the beautiful fall colors here in New Hampshire and then ended up in a salvage yard.  They were both very photogenic and I can't wait to shoot their wedding in the summer at The State Room in Boston.
