Cristina & Blake's Signature Session

When I met Cristina last year all she could do is talk about her fiance Blake - Blake was a United States Marine serving in Iraq so I never met him until Sunday. What a great guy, a real sport and a gentleman! Cristina had a desire to do a rustic shoot so what better place than an old farm.

My home town of Greenville was just the ticket so I called a good friend and got permission to photograph at his family farm. I think the results speak for themselves, but more important was the excitement and joy that Blake and Cristina showed when they viewed the images... The wedding is next Saturday so stop back and see how they made out!

Giselle & Adam's Photo Session

What a blast! I haven't laughed this much in a long time... Giselle and Adam are a super fun couple - happy, in love and just glowing when they're together! This was our first session together and they chose the Empire State Plaza and the State Education Building as a backdrop. Their wedding is next April so they have plenty of time to get comfortable in front of the camera... Like they need to???

Bethany & Ryan's Engagement

I had the pleasure of taking some photos of Bethany and Ryan for their engagement announcements. Washington Park is such a beautiful area and offers so much diversity in architecture and plants. We shot on the east side of the park which was new for me - we had a blast! We were even blessed with a sun shower that forced us to seek shelter which offered a little together time for the happy couple...

Amanda & Tikiri 7.2.09

What a beautiful family! Amanda and Tikiri have two adorable children that added such a special touch to the day... Rain was the order of the day but certainly didn't dampen the fun at the wedding. The ceremony and reception took place at Riverstone Manor in Glenville and the service was excellent as usual.
All the best on your adventure together!

Stephanie & Byron 6.27.09

Stephanie and Byron were blessed with a little rain on their special day - nothing to deter their spirits, just enough for good luck! The ceremony was at St. Edward's in Clifton Park followed by a wonderful reception at Riverstone Manor in Glenville. Great food and friendships just made for a day to remember!
Congrats!

Mollie & Pete 6.20.09


Rain, rain go away come back another day! Any boy did we get rain... Mollie and Pete were real troopers and didn't let the rain put a damper on their wedding day. The ceremony went on outside at the Riverstone Manor without any delay.

Hard to even tell it was raining with all the happy people that surrounded Mollie and Pete on their special day. I haven't seen this much dancing by the bride in a while - you hardly saw Mollie away from the dance floor.

Enjoy the teasers and I'll post the full wedding once Mollie and Pete return to Albany in mid July.

Joy & JT 6.13.09






All I can say is WOW! What a wedding, what a couple and what wonderful fellowship... I've known Joy for several years and was both honored and scared to death when she asked me to photograph her wedding. It's one thing when a friend asks you to be in their wedding, it's another to shoot it!

What a beautiful experience it turned out to be. I had the opportunity to photograph Joy and Jeff's engagement session, their signature photo session, Joy's intimate session as a gift to JT and finally their wedding... I am truly blessed to have had such a rich involvement in their union and I am so grateful.

Here are a few of my favorites from the wedding. Oh did I mention there was a Rolls Royce Phantom???
Enjoy!
