Jaclyn + Andrew took us to Mendham, Morristown, West Paterson & Old Tappan. Jacklyn was looking for somewhere to shoot formal portraits of her and Andrew, bridal party and family. I looked around Morristown a bit but didn’t find anyplace I loved. Peruse the route from the church in Morristown to the venue in Old Tappan and notice we’ll pass near Garrett Mtn and Rifle Camp Park in Woodland Park. Took a drive to Rifle Camp Park a couple of weeks before the wedding and I was knocked out by the colors and the different areas we could shoot in. Was also delighted to see there weren’t many people around. I can get the bride and groom to lose themselves in front of the camera and NOT feel self-conscious but I am not sure I could to that with 20 strangers watching us shoot.

Anyway wedding day we got to RCP with 2 hours to shoot and only needed 90 minutes. I LOVE to keep everything on schedule to keep smiles at a maximum and stress at a minimum! Bring people to a beautiful place on a happy day and you can’t go wrong. Maybe it’s time to start holding seminars?!

These photos were live on FB the day after the wedding –I was so excited to share ‘em!

I shot Maura and Dan’s wedding on an amazing Autumn afternoon in Upstate NY. They live around the block from me and found me on Google Maps –noticed me on their phones! Pretty easy to meet –I’d walk around block. We immediately had an easy rapport and I was excited when they told me I was hired!

We had fabulous weather on their wedding day and we had a sunset to ourselves on a beautiful golf course. Definitely one of the highlights of 2014 wedding season!!

Two firsts for us –1st wedding on Long Island and first same sex wedding! I was so excited when Ali + Danielle first contacted me as I had long supported EVERYONE’S right to get married and what better way to express this opinion that to photograph a gay wedding!

I remember our first Facetime chat when Danielle asked, “Have you ever shot a gay wedding before.”

Saying no made my heart sink but I went on to explain that Love is Love and that to me a wedding is a wedding and I would exceed their expectations.

I was hired and brought along my favorite collaborator and photographic brother, Jed Smith photography. Ali and Danielle love their photos but Jed and I love them more. So there!!

It was a cold rainy November Day day in Mamaroneck, NY. Weather could not dampen the spirits of Rebecca, Mat, bridal party and guests. The enthusiasm of the bride and groom and their faith in us to “get the shot” made for maybe the single strongest image from 2014! The Umbrella in the Rain shot actually was featured on Huffington Post a few days after the wedding!

Would love to shoot more at the Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht Club –great venue!

So…shot Daisy & Luis’s engagement photos around and IN the Ramapo River here in Oakland, NJ, the town we all call home. Next, I shot Daisy’s wedding in Costa Rica and stayed with her wonderful family. Now I got to shoot photos of their beautiful baby boy Damian Alexander. Since it is Winter I had some hats ready for Damin!!
