True City Wedding

Where they live, where she works, where they go to church, where they hang out and the warmth and humor of their families and friends. Elegant and simple decorations and champagne to take home. Partying and dancing and people they love. The ingredients of an amazing wedding. This was Ok and Tim’s day. The ceremony [...]

Clear Crisp Spring Morning

Right after rain, the sky clears in a way that the blue is brilliant. The day was crisp but this three month old had her first glimpse of the spring sun and the awakening buds.

Spring Streams

I am always fascinated by streams as they cascade down the mountains in the Northeast. No more so than when they roar with wave upon wave of foaming water. This is an announcement that winter is over. Spring has started.

Natural Light for Photographs

When I can, I use natural light to photograph. Indoors the light can come from a window. Outdoors, of course, the light is always there whether it is a sunny or a cloudy day. I think it will be easy to see how the natural daylight has allowed these photographs of three lovely maternity couples [...]

Children Indoors On A Rainy Day

The weather has finally shifted and there are lots of signs of spring. I have just heard the weather forecast for a weekend of rain. This doesn’t stop the opportunity for capturing wonderful photos of children. Children enjoy playing both indoors and outdoors. Here are photos from a rainy day weekend. This photo sequence, a [...]

Supporting Girls

Women’s Expressive Theater has an ongoing series to help teen age girls accept who they are and not try to match peer expectations. It is called the Risk Taker’s Series. About once a month during the school year a group of about 150 teen agers gather to watch a film that relates to their experiences [...]

However there are three families of swans along with many varieties of ducks, geese, and gulls in the lake in Prospect Park. Wikipedia has a good description of swans and their habitats. Swans usually do not battle each other for [...]

Doing Business Portraits For You and Your Profession

I like to think that a portrait, for use in conjunction with your business, should say more about you than a “head shot”. Recently when the colors of fall were at their most brilliant, I worked with Joyce of NYC School Help. The oranges, reds, and golden yellow were perfect for her business. Most people [...]

Hudson River Wedding Circling Manhattan

Recently I photographed a wedding that is featured on “Married In Manhattan” on TLC. The wedding and reception took place on a boat that circled Manhattan. Because of the boat’s size the number of guests was limited to very close friends and family members. The amount of love shown Margot and Silvio that afternoon couldn’t [...]

In Addition

In addition to working with so many wonderful clients in 2009, I am pleased that recent artworks have been exhibited in two New York galleries. Earlier this fall one of my platinum palladium diptychs was exhibited as part of a juried show at Soho Photo Gallery in Manhattan. This work was part of my ongoing [...]
