Married- Mary & Jason!

I had the pleasure to photograph Mary & Jason’s grand party!…I mean wedding! All eyes where on Mary and Jason during there ceremony at the Holy Name of Jesus Church on the upper west side. The grand structure of columns and intricate facades were contrasted with Jason’s soft stare as Mary walked the isle. Guests where then shuttled downtown to the Altman building in Chelsea, where even the priest took part in the festive karaoke. You new that the reception would be a grand party given that Jason owns the bar Bourbon Street. Between the ceremony and reception the rainy weather broke with a warm sunshine through clouds lighting up Riverside park, where I snapped a few portraits of the bridal party and the newly married couple. My lips are still moving to sound of music and if I where not typing I would be making jazz hands!

Ceremony: Holy Name of Jesus Church

Married – Megan & Seth!

I really love what I do, I get to meet new couples excited about their future everyday and capture a beautiful moment in their lives. In this case, Seth and Megan were already friends and it was a pleasure meeting their extended families. Their Armenian ceremony was held at St. Leon’s Armenian Church (Seth is Armenian) and the reception at the new Westin, Jersey City.

Honeymoon Part II – Switzerland!

Its been a few months since we returned from our honeymoon but we can still here the sound of cow bells at 9,000 feet in the Swiss Alps of Piz Nair. We took the funicular half way up from St. Moritz and hiked the remaining distance into the thin but crystal clean sky.   Chrystal and I started our honeymoon in Hvar and flew to Switzerland to photograph Eva & Hooman’s wedding in St. Moritz (which you can see on my blog here). The train ride alone was breathtaking, you can see some of our ride in this video.

One of our favorite moments of our stay in Switzerland was a late night meal of simple pizza and Chianti at Pizza Del Arte in St. Moritz.  The chalk board when you entered the restaurant, owned and run by a humble Swiss-Italian, stated:  “I cook, you eat, we both happy”.

Stay tuned for Honeymoon parts III, IV, V!

Happy Halloween!

There was smoke, there was lightening, bats, spiders, the moon and lots of music that got under my skin. You wouldn’t imagine this was in the center of Central Park. Once again I had the pleasure to work with Frank Alexander NYC to photography the Central Park Conservancy’s annual fund raising Halloween ball. Spooky!
