jane + fred – wedding at the lighthouse at chelsea piers

bd — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 16:21:22 +0000

we had the pleasure of working with Jeannie Uyanik and Krista from C&G Weddings at Jane and Fred’s wedding at The Lighthouse. just wanted to get a few images up to share…

“old school holdouts” take note. in my opinion, it is much better for a bride and groom to see each other before their ceremony to do their portraits. you just don’t get shots like these below when a couple sees each other for the first time at the altar. (see the tears on Jane’s cheek and on Fred’s jacket?)

david krumholtz weds vanessa britting at the plaza hotel

bd — Tue, 25 May 2010 18:58:10 +0000

great wedding this weekend with David Krumholtz, star of Numb3rs marrying Vanessa Britting, from The Young and the Restless and Without a Trace.

the celebrity filled bridal party (that’s Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Gregg Bello and Martin Starr above) and guest list made things a bit interesting – i’m not really used to going on shoots in central park with a security detail and hiding in the rambles… but we love changing things up.

but i had sussed out well in advance that this hot dog vendor posed no threat…

and a great party – and one of my faves… we all had a really great time working together.

many thanks to the multitalented (and even more importantly – fun to work with) Michelle Rago who did a great job planning the wedding.

more to come…

so when we last left our beautiful bride, she was awaiting the beginning of her wedding ceremony at new york’s famed st. regis hotel

a great room for a ketubah signing…

and a final moment to collect thoughts before walking down the aisle…

classic new york city hotel wedding – the st. regis

we photographed another beautiful wedding at The St. Regis Hotel recently and i must say, if it absolutely has to rain on your wedding day, The St. Regis is a nice place to be – there’s plenty of stunning space to work with inside.

our many thanks to the always wonderful Ellen Kostman of Sidekick Events who did the planning and to Dejuan Stroud for the flowers.

decoding the image – taking the time to experience photographs

bd — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 15:54:48 +0000

If you’ve ever really experienced some of Cartier-Bresson’s photographs – and I don’t mean seen them, I mean experienced them (and if you’re not sure, then put yourself in the former category) some images you need to sit with for a minute to really appreciate – and sometimes you need to process them for quite some time. when you put yourself in the mental state to appreciate an image – like you would if you went to see an exhibit – you’re opening yourself to get more from it.

i was pulling images today for a project we’re working on and when I saw this one, I actually laughed out loud. we took this shot at a wedding several years ago and I didn’t think that much of it at the time, but every time i come across it, i like it more and more. it looks like a pretty simple image until you take the time to experience it as you would an “art” photograph. so i thought i’d take a sec to share it in hopes that others might get as much of a kick out of it as i did.
