David and Alyssa were married in Manhattan, and had their fabulous wedding reception at Maritime Parc in Jersey City.  It was a beautiful ceremony, which combined both Catholic and Jewish traditions, and I think everyone started to cry when they saw the way David looked at his wife-to-be as she walked down the aisle towards him.  Just like I did. 

We did formal portraits at Maritime Parc, and the bride and groom scoped out a gorgeous willow tree for us to shoot by, and then we headed to the waterfront to take in some of the NYC skyline with their wedding party.  As you can see, we had just a bit of fun along the way.  

And their reception?  Fabulous, fabulous, and talk about a view! There's nothing like enjoying the evening with a view of the New York City skyline.  I am always so thrilled when brides and grooms choose me to capture their special day.  There is no greater honor, and it's wonderful to show up as a stranger and then leave feeling like you're part of the family.

Happy birthday to you, little E!  Isn't he darling? My new little friend has just about the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen, and the sweetest, happiest disposition. It was such a pleasure to spend some time with him and his wonderful parents on the eve of his first birthday. We took portraits in their gorgeous home, and then just outside the Museum of Natural History as well.  We were so fortunate to have yet another glorious autumn day in NYC, just perfect for portraits!

 P.S. Sessions like these make me realize how grateful I am to be a portrait photographer. It is an honor and privilege to be able to go into a home and capture wall-worthy portraits, but more importantly, relationships and emotions. There are few things I love more than watching parents with their children, and to be able to capture even a fraction of the love that and adoration that I see before my is my goal.
