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 [...]

While helping my friend David M photograph a wedding recently, the maitre’d excitedly came to tell me that there is a full rainbow outside after a rainstorm had blown through. I grabbed the wedding couple, and went outside, and saw the beautiful rainbow and set the couple up for this simple, but romantic [...]

Clients usually choose their wedding location very carefully. In telling the story of a wedding, one of my goals is to create photographs that give a sense of the location. This may include architecture, weather, patterns, details, lighting effects, window views and other visual elements. Here are some examples from a wedding at [...]
One of the things I love most about being a New Jersey/New York based wedding photographer is that there are a variety of cultures, venues, and most importantly, personalities to capture on wedding days. Wedding photography is reactive, intuitive, and aritistic.
Our job, without question, is the ability to enter into any situation and photograph it [...]

I have several friends whom through the years have enjoyed sharing with me their expertise in cooking, and I truly enjoy sharing in their meals. I’ve learned a lot by [...]

Just as on a wrestling mat, there’s no place to hide on a beach wedding!
So why would one want to hide on a wedding day?
Well, unlike in a church or other wedding location everything takes place in direct sunlight and given that Murphy’s Law will be in effect the sun is usually out in [...]
Something I find myself doing quite often on days when I photograph in the sun, is to seek out the sun purposely in the frame of my camera .. and allow the sunlight to flare as a burst of light streaking across the image. I find that if I can place it carefully, it adds a cinematic [...]
The “Calling”.
It was not so much a calling, but a revelation. It was a revelation that happened along my journey in photography.
Many start careers in photography as wedding photographers, only to move on into other areas of photography in a short period of time. Fewer start photography careers in other areas of photography to move [...]
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 [...]
