Elizabeth and Chris

Chris & Elizabeth's Engagement Session
Lake Placid, NY

Lake Placid holds a special place in Chris and Elizabeth's heart because it's where their love story began. They met at Lake Placid while training for a triathlon and the rest was history. They visit Lake Placid often and while on one of their training runs Chris proposed to Elizabeth. Elizabeth excitedly said yes and wanted to run back to share the news, but since they were training, they agreed to finish the course before heading back to make the big announcement. They are a perfect team that truly compliment and complete each other. Needless to say, they finished the course with one of their fastest times.  Their most anticipated race will be down the aisle this weekend where Chris and Elizabeth will say their "I do's" and declare their love.

Monica & Hector

One of the greatest perks of being a photographer is having the opportunity to meet fantastic people.  I met Hector and Monica at wedding and we became fast friends. Hector and Monica are an amazing couple who loves food as much as I do and have a great sense of adventure which I share. We have always talked about doing a fun portrait session in NYC and here are some pictures of our day in Central Park.

Desert, Camels, and Fireworks in Doha

While working in Doha, Qatar I was fortunate to have the opportunity to explore the beauty of the desert,  immerse myself in the culture, and celebrate the Eid-al-Adha holiday.






If you look closely the man on the first camel is shooting a picture of me with his camera phone.

There is nothing better than taking a winter vacation to a tropical island. My journey has taken me to Puerto Rico on an exciting adventure of beautiful beaches, tropical rainforest and a wonderful culture.

Jennifer & Evan's Wedding



Jennifer and Evan's love story began online, which led to their first date at a local bar and grill and over the next four years blossomed into a beautiful relationship. Evan wanted his proposal to be a surprise. So he waited for Jennifer’s birthday and surprised her with a gift bag. In the bag there was her favorite magazines and doughnuts. When she looked up to thank him she found him on one knee. 

Jennifer knew Evan was the one for her because she couldn’t imagine her life without him. Evan knew Jennifer was the one for him because he felt incomplete when she wasn’t around. So of course Jennifer said Yes!

After months of preparation, September 4th had arrived and the forecasted rain was nowhere to be found. It was a warm cloudy day and the sun peaked out on the Pearl River Hilton, where the celebration was taking place. Everything was running on time, just as Jennifer had planned it.

Jennifer was beaming in anticipation of seeing her future husband. As we walked over to see Evan, Jennifer’s pace quickened and she said, “ I can’t wait to see my Honey!” Evan smiled in anticipation as he heard Jennifer’s footsteps approaching. His mouth dropped as he turned to see his future wife whom he couldn’t take his eyes off of.

Their ceremony was intimate and personal as Rabbi Ronald Mass told the story of how Jennifer and Evan met and came to be standing here today. Jennifer and Evan never stopped smiling at each other. The celebration continued all night long and the dance floor was always rocking. It was beautiful to watch an old friend marry her soul mate and start a new chapter of their love story.
