Jessica and Dan had a beautiful outdoor ceremony Sunday at Le Chateau in South Salem, NY. The sky was dramatic as they said their vows under the Chupah.The ceremony was attended by a small gathering of family and friends, but just afterward they were all joined by the rest of the guests. Jessica and Dan met and live in Australia, though Jessica grew up in Brookfield, CT and Dan is from London. The families are traveling next to London to be with Dan’s extended family and friends, and to continue to share the joy!

Meredith and Mark had a beautiful wedding surrounded by family Saturday at St. John’s Church in Darien followed by a reception at the Roger Sherman Inn. St John’s was all decked out in poinsettias for Christmas.

St. John’s is on Post Rd., so you can see Meredith waving at a car passing by honking in congratulations to the newly wedded couple! Meanwhile the church bells are ringing!

Amy and Brian at Waccabuc Country Club

Amy and Brian had such a fun wedding at St. Mary’s in Katonah and Waccabuc Country Club. Amy worked every summer growing up at the Lake at Waccabuc, so it was very special having photos taken there. So glad the weather held up, and even had a fantastic sunset. Amy and Brian both graduated from Sienna College, where Brian was a player on the hockey team, and I think half the Sienna hockey team was at this wedding! Brian is still a hockey player and actually proposed to Amy at the Brunswick School skating rink after a session with her 2nd graders on the ice! Brian’s FDNY friends were at the wedding. What a great party!

I’m so glad that I could come over to memorialize this family’s wonderful holiday gathering! The kids grow so quickly and they will have wonderful memories of being together at Christmas time. Especially with the grandparents and a favorite aunt present as well!

Happy New Year 2012!

I photographed this lovely family in Ridgefield 17 years ago with the parents and the 2 boys. The family has grown wonderfully with wives and an adorable little boy. They even have the framed photograph up from all those years ago! It’s so great to see my clients at different times in their lives and help them preserve the special memories of being together.
I hope we all continue to enjoy wonderful times with friends and family in 2012!

Congratulations to Ethan on his Bar Mitzvah last Saturday. He did an outstanding job leading the congregation at Shaaray Tefilah in Bedford and reading from the Torah.

What a fun party at The Willows in Lewisboro. I enjoyed meeting the whole family and the cousins were adorable!

Greg and Paulina got married 3 weeks after their wonderful engagement party at Le Chateau. They had a classic “City Hall” wedding in NYC on a beautiful day, 2 days before Hurricane Irene! You would never know that a hurricane was coming! They were surrounded by family in City Hall for their ceremony. We had time to have a fun photo shoot on the streets of NY and the Brooklyn Bridge before they needed to join the others at the restaurant.

Greg and Paulina had a beautiful day at Le Chateau in Westchester County, NY for their engagement party Saturday. The weather held up for them, so the cocktail hour in the garden was tranquil and incredibly scenic. A trio of classical musicians and superb horsdeavres by Le Chateau combined with their closest family and friends (about 100 guests!) made for an exquisite afternoon. I will be back photographing Greg and Paulina for their wedding coming up later this month in Manhattan!
