Jennifer and Brian – Brooklyn Engagement Session

This is Jennifer and Brian and they are one stylish couple! Jennifer is jaw dropping beautiful and also happens to be very thoughtful and sweet. When she welcomed me to their home with a gorgeous spread of fruits and cheeses, I was one happy photographer. Brian is smart, driven and has impeccable taste in home and design. He did an amazing job with their place…it really looks like it belongs on the cover of Architectural Digest. I left inspired and with a mental note: I must find that young Kate Moss photo for my place.:)

I had such a fun time strolling around Brooklyn with these two. The weather was perfect. The sunlight was yummy. And they are an absolute delight to be around. I loved seeing the way Brian adores Jennifer and how Jennifer laughs and lights up around Brian. Their love is so real, honest and playful…it was a pleasure  to capture them during this sweet time of their lives.

Thank you Rowa for your the most wonderful assistance!

Maverick and Mommy – Lifestyle Session

If you can’t tell already, K is one of my fave people to photograph. She is beautiful both inside and out, so laid back and always willing to give me 100% creative control.  We had a tired baby, pee all over the floor, and some technical difficulties but in true K fashion, this girl just rolled with it and had a great time. I feel very fortunate to have an amazing friend like her. I  As moms of two boys, we both feel that our second child is always shafted. So we decided to do a little intimate session with just her younger son to capture their special relationship. Hope you enjoy!

 

 

Aurora and Anthony – Central Park Conservatory Garden Engagement

Meet Aurora and Anthony.  These two are driven passionate people with an unassuming elegance to them.  They are totally comfortable in their own skin, have great chemistry together and there is nothing insincere about them.  Shooting them was such a pleasure…they just mesh well together. They also hit me in my sweet spot with their love for art and their tendency to think outside the box.  People like them make the world so much more interesting!

We started off their session at their home. I absolutely love shooting couples from the comforts of their home…it is so personal and real. I feel like a couple’s space really allows you to see beautiful parts of their love…which makes for an awesome engagement session.  Next, we headed to the Conservatory Garden at Central Park where it was complete sunshiny bliss. The vibrant spring flowers were all in bloom and the air was filled with a delightful sweetness. We could not have asked for a more perfect spring day. Counting down the days till their wedding in this May!

Modern Marie Styled Shoot

I’m very much a girly girl so when it came time to plan a styled shoot, Sofia Coppola’s retelling of Marie Antoinette immediately came to mind for inspiration. High fashion elaborate gowns and shoes, sumptuous pastries, entourage of beautiful girls…yes, please! To see where it all began, check out my inspiration board. Also, don’t forget to swing over to our Style Me Pretty feature for more details and list of AH-MAZING vendors from the shoot.

 

 

Teagan – Lifestyle Portraiture

I first met Teagan and her family when I was shooting Faye and Steve‘s wedding last August. Since then we been trying to schedule a session and it finally came time, I was SO excited to see how much she’s grown! She is the most adorable, sweetest. smiley baby ever. Here are a few images of her gallivanting around the Plaza Hotel. This girl was in her domain…opening doors, smiling and laughing, making her rounds. One man even asked for her autograph!
