Todays photo of the day is from a wedding at the Newark Museum in Newark, New Jersey. What a cool wedding this was and the fact that Sarah and Drew chose the Newark Museum for their wedding was pretty awesome. Being able to walk around these amazing rooms and take photos was a great opportunity. One of my favorites from the day was this particular shot we took before the reception got started. I really enjoyed their wedding and look forward to posting more photos soon!
Jeffrey proposed out of the blue to Briana over pizza and some vintage champagne.. after she said yes, Jeffrey had a town car waiting for her to whisk her away to France for a winery tour. What a wonderful way to start their story.
I met Jeffrey a few years ago through the restaurant scene in New York City while he was the GM at a restaurant named Scarpetta.. we had a good time hanging out during a few photo sessions and when he told me he was getting married and wanted me to photograph his wedding I was honored.
The entire day was awesome from their Central Park ceremony to being whisked away in a vintage NYC cab to the foodie lovers paradise of a wedding reception at the The Stanard Hotel (formerly known as the Cooper Square Hote). Negroni’s to drink, a stacked raw bar bursting with oysters and shrimp, and suckling pigs or “porchetta” as they’re called. There was a jazz trio during the cocktail hour and then some lively dancing out on the rooftop deck overlooking Manhattan, late into the night. Besides being filled with great food and drink, the room had so much happiness and love at this wedding. Thanks to Bonnie Burke for coming through with her excellent second photographer duties.
Thank you to the lovely Briana and dapper Jeffrey for having me photograph their special day, it was a total pleasure. Now onto the images from this perfect day.
This is my friend Rebecca, one of my closest friends growing up. Since I was a guest so I only took a handful of photos. When I’m a guest (especially when my girlfriend Jordana is with me) I try to not shoot so much, but its hard sometimes I see moments like this I gotta capture.
Rebecca got married a stones throw away from where I grew up in Brookfield Connecticut at the scenic Candlewood Inn. Rebecca loved this photo so I printed it up and framed it for her as a gift and she hung it in her living room..
Zach and Jenna were married at the Martha Clara Vineyard earlier this summer and I was fortunate enough to be their wedding photographer. This wonderful venue, coupled with this stunning bride and handsome groom made for some of my best wedding photographs to date. Spirited dancing, joyful people, wonderful little details, and a few film shots (I brought my hasselblad, medium format camera for this one). It was truly a great wedding…. Oh and for my vendor meal we got to have lobster.. not too shabby!
And I wanted to share this video clip from Reeltime Weddings who did this beautiful sample of their day…. enjoy!
Today I wanted to share this photo of Jennifer and Rich, a recent couple of mine who got married at the majestic Bridgewaters at the South Street Seaport.. with views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Brooklyn (the best borough!) Lots more to share from this lovely couple.
