Katie & Steve brought not only their love for one another to their photo session, but they also came with Marley, their beautiful golden retriever. There was so much to love about this beautiful couple and their early springtime shoot. With the crocuses in bloom, gorgeous light, and this awesome threesome (Marley wouldn’t allow us to forget her larger-than-life personality), it was a perfect day for them to enjoy their date day together. We can’t wait to join them for their wedding day at the Venetian Yacht Club.

Rebekah & Harry drew us immediately with their friendly and open personalities, and their deep love for photography sealed it for us. We simply had to photograph them! Their engagement photos were taken in Central Park and other portions of NYC, which was ideal for showing off not only their enjoyment of open spaces, but also their attachment to the beauty of New York City. Such a unique place for this marvelously unique and adorable couple. Inspired by Rebekah’s love of “Alice in Wonderland”, our time with them was especially fun and playful. We are so thrilled to be their photographers, and we can’t wait to join them for their autumn wedding at Onteora Mountain House.

Victoria & John mentioned to us from the get-go that they love taking photos. They really weren’t kidding! We had a complete blast with them as we explored the grounds of their former college in upstate NY. Although quite windy and chilly, this awesome duo braved the elements and pulled out all the stops for us during their fashionably fun photo session. With plenty of accessories and changes of clothing to add variety to the session, this engaging couple had nothing at all to worry about as John held Victoria close. They came strongly recommended to us by another marvelous couple, Nikki & Jared, their close friends whose wedding we are also photographing in 2011. So it’s going to be a banner year for this close set of friends, as well as for us! We can’t wait to join Victoria & John at the Glen Island Harbour Club for their summer extravaganza.

We were so excited to finally meet this great couple, whose wedding is rapidly coming up this summer in Albany.  And what better place to meet a NY couple than in Central Park? It was a delightful afternoon. They enjoyed a picnic of cheese and crackers and wine, and were joined by their really cool mastiff mix, Rufus. Their excellent preparation really paid off for a great looking shoot. We’re so glad they loved so many of their photos and now eagerly anticipate their wedding day even more!

We first met Allison & Dan several years ago when we photographed Dan’s brother’s wedding.  We then met up again last year when we photographed Allison’s sister’s wedding.  So you can imagine how excited we were when they called us up to photograph their own!  We can’t wait for their wedding day this July at Saratoga National Golf Club in Saratoga Springs. It’s going to feel like a big family reunion for us.

Even though the day of their engagement session was freezing cold, we found some relief in the basement of a very cool winery  and were able to create some amazing art pieces for them.

Their spring wedding at Abigail Kirsch at Tappan Hill is going to be a fabulous affair, and we can’t wait to join them.

There’s no doubt about it. Allie absolutely LOVES photography. And we absolutely love photographing with Allie & Traver. They both put a lot of thought into the look and mood they wanted for their photo session, and she asked that we come out to a beautiful horse farm that had wide-open spaces and plenty of variety in the scenery to showcase their personalities and genuine enthusiasm about their relationship. They also brought along their friendly nine-year-old German Shepherd, Ozzie, for a portion of the session. He turned out to be a big teddy bear. It was a perfect way to spend the late autumn season.

We had such a blast with this down-to-earth couple, and our own excitement about their upcoming wedding at the Pearl River Hilton is growing even more, especially after their fabulous photo shoot.

We had a gorgeous autumn day for Michelle & Dan’s engagement photos, and everything was simply perfect. The fall colors  were a beautiful complement to Michelle’s red hair. Dan’s fun and energetic personality kept everyone smiling and laughing throughout. Ever since first meeting them last spring, we’ve been looking forward to working with this really sweet couple. Our time with them was every bit as much fun as we expected. We anxious to show them the beautiful results. We can’t wait for their wedding at Sinapi’s Ceola Manor next May!

We first met Gina at a local bridal event, and we immediately felt connected to her. Only later did we realize that we have a few friends in common. When she introduced us to her fiancé, Herman, we just knew we wanted to photograph their wedding. We were very excited when they chose us on the spot!

Our engagement photo session with them was nothing less than delightful. Seeing how willing they were to help us create gorgeous photos with just the perfect mood for them made us look for unique opportunities to show them off at their best.  A perfect day with a perfect couple – you can’t ask for more than that!

We’re now even more eager to join them for their wedding at Round Hill House in the summer of 2010.

Just a few short minutes after meeting Helena & David, we knew we wanted to be their photographers. We were drawn not only to their gentle-but-fun personalities, but also to the affectionate way they naturally treat one another. What better ingredients could you need for starting a fulfilling life together? And those same qualities were clearly in evidence in their photos.

They came all the way up from their home in the D.C. area to finalize some of their wedding arrangements and to spend a little time with us for their engagement photos. We had a fabulous time getting to know them even better, and they did a remarkable job as our “models” for the day. Their wedding at the beautiful View on the Hudson is going to be a truly special day for them and for us.

Lovisa & Chris are a couple with lots of love for life and for one another in their hearts. When Lovisa called us about her wedding photography, she knew exactly what she wanted; we were so glad that we turned out to be a part of their plans. We were certainly drawn to them immediately, and their engagement photo session turned out to be as naturally fun as we had hoped. This naturally affectionate couple didn’t need any coaxing at all to allow their feelings for one another to show in front of the camera. Most of all, we enjoyed getting to know them better during their “date day” while we happily worked at producing great photos for them.

We know their wedding day at the Full Moon Resort is going to be even more amazing, and we can’t wait to join them in a couple weeks.

When we first met Jennifer & Jason, we were very impressed by their quiet strength as well as their strong sense of devotion to one another. And when they chose us as their wedding photographers, we wanted to be sure to interpret and convey those very same qualities in each of their photo sessions, both for the wedding as well as for this engagement session.

We had a really great time with them during the photo shoot. Jenn prepared beautifully and looked just fantastic. And Jason looked plain cool, just the way we wanted him to be. Their quality of keeping close to one another was really amazing to see through the camera lens, and we’re very happy with the results. We know they’re going to love the photos, and we can’t wait to share them. We look forward to their wedding this October at The Grandview.

Shauna & Steve’s engagement session was a highlight of our week, partly because we asked us to come down to their hometown of Hoboken, NJ. We always enjoy going to this hip area across the Hudson River from Manhattan. But we had added reason to be excited about their photo shoot because this was our first time meeting them. We were booked by Shauna’s mom without their having even met us first. It always makes us feel great when the strength of our work and our boutique-style personalized service comes above all else. They rode in together on Steve’s motorcycle, and we spent the afternoon dodging a few raindrops while getting some great photos in some of their favorite places to walk together.

We’re eagerly looking forward to capturing yet more artful moments for them during their wedding day at the beautiful Onteora Mountain House.

Spring is definitely heating up for everyone, not due to rising temperatures but also because of the INCREDIBLE couples we’ve had the chance to photograph!

Nicole & Andrew are one such couple that we knew we had to work with from Day One. She was already familiar with and excited about our work for a previous bride of ours, Jesyca & Bill and their growing family, so we had extra reason to feel fantastic about our experience with Nicole & Andy. In fact, our shoot with them not only lived up to but surpassed even our own anticipation. Nicole looked amazing, and Andy was in a playful mood, teasing her and getting her to laugh and smile. Their open and gentle natures blended perfectly with doses of of fun and flirtiness, making for a totally enjoyable e-session.

We can’t wait to share the photos with them! And we know their wedding & party at King’s Catering is going to be an amazing day for everyone.

We’re  understandably “jazzed” (pun TOTALLY intended) about this gorgeous pair’s upcoming wedding and the reception at the fabulous Tribecca Rooftop in NYC. It’s going to be an amazing event, and we can’t wait!

More with Zooey & Willie.

Their definite fun factor and hip sense of fashion made their engagement photo session a blast. While we walked and got reacquainted with each of them, we were privileged to create sets of irresistible images highlighting how they truly feel about one another. We can’t wait to show them the photos!

We’re eager to join them on their wedding day at Perona Farms.

Katie & Don traveled all the way from Ohio for two BIG events: 1) to attend the NY Giants vs Cowboys football game, and 2) to have their engagement photos taken!

It was our first time meeting them in person, but it was no problem at all falling into an easy rhythm with this fun-loving couple. Each has a great sense of humor, which was definitely evident during the photo shoot, and we were glad to see their love for one another take center stage in the photos. We eagerly anticipate their wedding next autumn at The Grandview in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Hot candied apples. Hot autumn colors. Hot couple. Hot car!

Those brief words describe perfectly our day of exploration during a sleepy little town’s autumn Applefest celebration.

Guys, you were AWESOME! I don’t need to say anything more!

Melissa & Mark’s e-session bodes very well indeed for the wedding and the reception at The Grandview in Poughkeepsie, NY. We cannot WAIT for our next photo session with them!

We first met Jennie’s parents at Maureen & Andy’s wedding at Onteora Mountain House a few years ago. We hit it off so well with them, and we were so excited when Jennie called to tell us that she was now getting married.

It took literally only seconds for us to begin getting fun and engaging photos of Jennie & Kevin. We had every bit as much fun as they had with one another. They are a couple with lots of laughs, affection, and style. We know their wedding at The Mansion At Timber Point is going to be amazing.
