When couples are trying to choose a location for their engagement session, I usually recommend choosing somewhere pretty or somewhere sentimental. Luckily, for Samantha & Michael, Wave Hill checked both boxes for them! The gardens have beautiful Hudson River views and it’s located right in their neighborhood, where they like to go on walks together. […]

The invention of Pinterest & Tik Tok has been both a blessing and a curse for wedding planning: it has provided an endless supply of inspiration and resources, yet it has created a tendency to copy rather than create, which tends to stifle true innovation. As a self-admitted perfectionist and overly obsessive planner, I […]

Walking into Nicole’s lemon-themed baby shower felt like stepping into a Tuscan lemon orchard! Nicole’s mom threw a beautiful baby shower in celebration of soon-to-be Baby Fisher this weekend at Bedford Post Inn. The talented mom-to-be is an interior designer, so naturally her attention to detail is out of this world – always such a […]

While we don’t need an overall shot list of every single photo you’d like on your wedding day, it is very helpful for us to have a bulleted list of each grouping of family members you’d like us to capture during Family Portraits. The Benefits of a Family Portait List: If you both have large […]

People have been joking for years that it must be so hard for Corrado to top all the proposals I’ve seen. Little did I know, he would trick me into shooting my own proposal photos at one of my favorite places: on top of a mountain. There was a rare once-in-a-lifetime sunrise eclipse that morning, so we decided to go on a hike to see the sunrise and have one of our usual mountaintop photoshoots. I set up my camera on a tripod, started the self-timer, ran into my spot, then Corrado dropped down on one knee and proposed, capturing it all on camera. I honestly couldn’t think of a more memorable or perfectly “us” proposal. Oh, and he proposed with three different [returnable] rings so I could decide exactly which options I liked before buying the “forever ring”. (Great job, Corrado!)

#LinPernilleGrooms – this post is for you! I’ve learned so much about menswear since becoming a wedding photographer. Photographing so many Groom Preps has taught me how to fold a pocket square, the difference between French cuffs and barrel cuffs, the different types of shoe lace styles, how to put on a boutonniere, how […]

After shooting almost 200 weddings, I can confidently say that my favorite parts of any wedding day are the speeches and vows. They tell the couple’s love story and create the framework for a great wedding film. If you’ve been given the honor of giving at toast at a wedding – no pressure! It may […]

We all know that the IRS just loves throwing a wrench in our tax filing systems. Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news… but it’s not actually that bad (just a change in paperwork): If you hired any independent contractors throughout the year (second shooters, assistants, etc) that earned $600+, you used to have to […]

After being engaged for over two years and having so many wrenches thrown in their wedding planning, I’m so happy for Alycia & Garret that they’re finally officially married!

The circumstances on Alyssa & Richie’s wedding day were “very 2020.” On top of being in the middle of a global pandemic, it rained the entire day, the bridge nearby was closed so the bride had to take a detour and arrived late, and they forgot to bring their marriage license. But everything worked out in the […]

I got to spend 10.10.2020 (the best anniversary date ever, right??) capturing Audrey & Andrew’s beautiful microwedding up in the Catskills at the Ashton Hills Estate! The weather was perfect, the foliage was at its peak, and they couldn’t have picked a more cozy spot to celebrate their marriage with their closest friends and family. After their friend […]
