I think these two go hand in hand. Great memories are best remembered through photographs and photographs allow us to remember great memories. As a photographer, I’m fortunate to be doing this for a career and for my clients. But as a dad, husband, son and brother, I’m even more fortunate to do this for [...]
We put a lot into our days, both wedding photographers, as well as the families of the bride and groom. When it is all said and done, we all look forward to unwinding for a few moments.
I recently had the pleasure to photograph the wedding of Eileen and Jason at New York City’s wonderful and historic Roosevelt Hotel which is just [...]
So who is Uncle Bob and why is he cursed?
For the uninitiated “Uncle Bob” is the name given by wedding photographers to any wedding guest, male or female, who appears at a wedding with either with a bigger, fancier or even Lord forbid, a newer camera than the actual hired photographer or someone who appears [...]
From time to time, I get asked at weddings, in consultations, on assignment for a newspaper, etc. which camera am I using. I kindly tell them the make and model. Then I say ‘It is just a tool that helps me take a photograph which I created with my vision (light, angle, composition, etc.)’.

I started in photography doing it for myself first. Even though I have come as a professional to photograph weddings and portraits for clients, or newspaper assignments for editors, I still shoot for myself. I constantly push myself to try a new technique, lighting, post-processing, different camera formats, etc. Most of my ideas come from [...]
Let me say this out straight - I hate gazebos. I hate gazebos and fountains and I especially hate having to photograph a couple at whatever landmark/feature that a reception venue has, where every other couple from the last five years has been photographed. There, I’ve said it. I feel better now, with that weight [...]
