Tanya's Headsots

Here's a peek at the very first few images shot in the new studio =) Thanks Tanya for a fun shoot!

Kim & Eri - The E-session 4-6-08

Some days I direct and some days I just snap away. Today was one of those snap away kinda days. I could feel the love and romance in the air as I peered through my viewfinder framing each image. Sometimes it's a glance or a touch or a word. Maybe it was all three today. Regardless one thing is for sure and that is that Eri and Kim adore each other and I adored being a part of capturing a few of those fleeting moments!

Eric and Archana - Esession 4-5-08

Today's e-session is in Brooklyn with the lovely Eric and Archana. A gorgeous day with amazing light! We strolled towards Brooklyn Bridge Park and snapped a few and headed towards the area beneath the bridge. Of course we were unaware that we needed a permit to shoot here so the image you are viewing was illegally taken. Those two little lawbreakers taunted the security guards with each and every embrace and kiss =) Yes we were followed and then reprimanded but it was worth it. Note to self....Get a permit when shooting at Brooklyn Bridge Park. We headed to the walkway and on our way there we shot some of my faves from the day. I can't wait to shoot the wedding in August! Thanks to you both for your welcome laughter! I completely enjoyed spending the afternoon with you.

The Wedding of Jen and Mike 3-29-08

Today I spent the day shooting the Wedding of Jen and Mike. I can't say enough how easy going they are and what a pleasure it was to spend the day with them. It's hard enough to plan a wedding let alone plan one from 1500 miles away! They live in Colorado with the families over here yet despite the distance everything went off without a hitch and It was a wonderful day overall. Sometimes things just come together and today it did for a much deserving couple. I wish you both the best in luck and love! Here are a few faves from the day =)

Gorgeous Bouquet! I love orchids.

Jacob - A baby Session.

I traveled to Milford Nj to do a baby session with Jacob. I really enjoy location shooting. I feel that especially with babies, being in their own environment makes things so much easier and comfortable. The drive was very beautiful. I felt compelled to stop several times to shoot the landscape. Milford is located on the Delaware river and the borough dates back to the 18th century. There is so much charm in the architecture and history and expanse of land quite contrasting to it's nearby city. I'm enjoying this peaceful ride and am really just feeling so serene. So when I arrive and meet Jacob I am equally pleased at what a joy he is. His smile is hearty, his grin effervescent and his gaze so tranquil. Ahhh the joy that babies are and the joy that they bring =) Thank you Jacob for a wonderful afternoon peek into these moments of your life!!!

Kristen and Larry - Esession

Today was great! It didn't rain although the wind blew my hair into a style resembling that of heat- meiser... Ha ha, it's totally true and was not at all flattering. Kristen and Larry laughed a lot, I think it was either my windblown hair or my charm. Actually on a serious note I think that it's the kind of laughter you can only share with that special someone that you have known forever and trust implicitly and more than anything else feel comfortable with in a such a way that emotions don't need to be coaxed. I love them for that and how easy they were to photograph despite them thinking that they weren't. It's a difficult task to be in front of a camera, vulnerable... I thank you both for trusting in me and I am so looking forward to being able to capture many more laughs, smiles and everything in between on your wedding day. These are only a few of my faves. There were too many to post!

They met in middle school! How amazing is that! We went to the school that they attended and it was really fun seeing the reactions from the teachers and students. I'm sure the kids are still talking about that famous couple they saw being photographed at their school!
