New Look, New Blog

You may have noticed a long absence of posting on our blog over the summer. It was all building up to a whole reboot of our site. Today our new blog and our new homepage are going live. Over the next couple of weeks, our wedding site is getting a refresh with all new images. The major part that we are most excited about is an entirely new portrait site. Our entire portrait mission has evolved into what we truly love which is creating beautiful images to become wall decor for our clients homes. It is going to be an exciting time going into the holidays and 2009.

Engagements - Alexis and Michael

DUMBO is an awesome place to work because it is always changing. Now we have these cool waterfalls placed around the waterfront. Unfortunately, you have to be on the Manhattan side to appreciate them.
Alexis and Michael had a fun little romp with us around the area. It was a hot night so everyone involved was all sweaty. Thankfully, you can always grab some great ice cream from the little shop under the bridge.
Tomorrow, I am going to have some of Alexis and Michael's wedding photos from last Sunday which was absolutely beautiful.

Jaclyn and Robert - Pleasantdale Chateau

I apologize to all who frequent our little news page for my absence in posting lately. We have had a crazy summer full of awesome weddings. I am going to try to catch up with a post a day.
I wanted to start with Jaclyn and Robert because their reception was at one of my favorite places to photograph, the Pleasantdale Chateau. I can photograph their all day long. They also have some of the nicest people working there especially our new pal Santiago.
When you are at a place like this, you have to budget a little extra time for us to play and Jaclyn and Robert gave us all the time we needed. They are a great couple that PJ and I had a lot of fun with walking all over the grounds finding all sorts of cool little unique spots

Engagements - Nicole and Vincent

Remember when I mentioned about watching the weather a while ago....
Well this time I was not as lucky but that never stops us--once we are going, we are going.
For Nicole and Vincent, we started shooting at the Tribecca Hotel where they got engaged. Then I started to feel some drops on my head and the sky opened up. Luckily the storms were moving pretty fast across the area. After a little break in the hotel lobby, we headed back out to play only to get caught again after walking a couple of blocks. Finding some dry locations made for some great romantic little spots. Any awning or overhang became our spot to stop. But the best part about when it rains are the puddles that remain.

Engagements - Tara and Jason

Things are finally back up and running around here. It's funny how much we now rely on our websites and email nowadays. I don't know how they used to do it.
To start things off, I wanted to share a very cute little session. Tara and Jason got engaged at The Little Cupcake in Brooklyn and she wanted some of our session there. I thought that was great and it was an awesome little spot. I only wished I could've grabbed a cupcake before we left there. Then I just decided to see where things would take us. There are some great locations around that area if you do some digging.

Studio Website Update

Well it is day 3 without our website or email. Our web hosting company is in Red Bank and got hit hard with the storms and power outages last week in that area. They told me that we should be back up any time now as the servers are rebuilding themselves from backups.

Site Down Temporarily

Our website is temporarily down due to problems with our server. We should be back up by the end of the day.
All of our emails are also down. Please call the office at 732.431.2660 if you need assistance.

Best New Store Design!!!

While I was away, Tami and Frank went to a lovely award ceremony in Short Hills. We were awarded "Best New Store Design" by the township of Millburn. It was great to be recognized out of all the new businesses that have started up around town. Tami put a lot effort to make our new store have a look like that would just wow people. Now we know that it got noticed!!

Engagements - Andrea and Joseph

On days when I am going to do engagement sessions, I am always watching the weather. Hot summer days can lead to some pretty nasty thunderstorms. On the day of Andrea and Joseph's session, it could have gone either way. All day, weathermen were calling for 50% chance thunderstorms. Usually, I would reschedule for another day. Something just told me to go for it. At Ft. Wadsworth, we had a small patch of blue sky with storms all around us. Andrea even grabbed an umbrella just in case we got hit. It ended up getting used more as a prop as we finished up a beautiful shoot.
