I would like to welcome and introduce baby Henry to the world!!! He is only two weeks old. I always suggest doing a newborn shoot in the first 10 days of birth because the little one does a whole lot of eating and sleeping, which helps with letting us mold him.  These photos will be such wonderful keepsakes for family and friends -- a reference to how tiny Henry really was! They grow so fast!

Are you hungry yet??

Just the best best (and most delicious) job yet! If you haven’t eaten at Friedman’s yet - please do!

Always a pleasure working with one of the best bespoke suit makers in the city - Michael Andrews.  Nothing like clean light to showcase fine, custom suits.

I would like to introduce you to Meredith and Peter. They had an intimate, elegant and absolutely gorgeous celebration with their close family and friends.  Meredith and a select few got ready at The Mark Hotel, where they had their first look. They had a lovely ceremony at the Church of St Vincent Ferrer and celebrated with an intimate dinner, heart-warming speeches and dancing at The Colony Club - a private club in Manhattan. It was a warm and classy event that I was so happy to be a part of!

With great honor, I would like to introduce Ali and Tim and their wedding video and photos. They got married at the Liberty House in New Jersey - a GORGEOUS venue located right across the Hudson River from downtown Manhattan. The views are breathtaking and so were the couple.

Here are two of my favorite people! Dave and I met in collage and became fast friends....going on 12 years! He met Jena and we all knew she would be the one...and we were right! I had the pleasure of shooting their engagement session. We started at the Met and then strolled the streets of the upper east side. We then did a wardrobe change and hit up sunset in the Meatpacking District.

 I cannot wait for the BIG DAY!

I’m so excited to have been apart of Mitzi and Ian’s wedding in Central Park recently. It was the pinnacle New York City wedding;  getting ready at The Plaza in a Vera Wang dress, carried to Bethesda Fountain for photos in a horse drawn carriage, with the ceremony and reception at the Loeb Boathouse in Central Park. And to top it off, there was a bubble send off onto a gondola ride post-ceremony on the pond. It was more than magical! And I am excited to dive into the photos...

Some of my favorite shots from working with the Groomsmansuit. If you haven’t already found out about them, you must!! They were the recent recipient of the FedEx Small Business Grant and they are killing it!  Think bridesmaids dress concept for the groomsman.  Why wouldn't you want your groomsman to own their own suit?!

An Epic New York City Bar Mitzvah

The Alberstadt family knows how to throw a party! James Abel Events was the mastermind of this fantastic party at the iconic Marque Club in Manhattan. Dancing, s’mors, cotton candy and a confetti drop. Mazel Tov Josh!

Meet Mitzi and Ian! For their engagement session we spent a gorgeous sunny Sunday in boats in Central Park and then made our way through the park and ended in the historic Grand Central Station. I cannot wait to shoot their wedding  at the Loeb Boathouse this fall!

LOVE these two! The most perfect City Hall wedding with Howard and Satomi this past fall. We were lucky enough to get an epic shot of these two on the Brooklyn Bridge without any people!

I had the pleasure of photographing an engagement session in San Francisco this year for none other than my cousin Erin and her handsome finance Jason. How much more Frisco iconic can you get with the foggy day and the Golden Gate Bridge in the background?!
