Summertime Scenery

I've had the pleasure of working on a fabulous commercial assignment this Summer where I'm shooting at some of Fairfield Counties most gorgeous properties. My clients campaign is not public yet, but some of these images will be in both print ads and on their web page. I did some panoramic shots for fun and even did one down by my river where we have been swimming nearly everyday. Sort of feels like your own private spa in the woods. I love my river!

Daniella & Thomas Wedding

Daniella and Thomas had a traditional Greek Orthodox wedding. My first Greek Orthodox ceremony and I was thrilled to assist my friend Richard Esposito. During the ceremony all of the bridal party, parents and all, circle around the alter several times. The church was beautiful and colorful and the reception was at The Waterview on Lake Zoar in Monroe Ct. The whole affair was steeped in Greek tradition and had a certain formality to it. From the Greek dances and beautiful gowns that all the women wore, down to the buffet of fabulous Greek food, this was a beautiful event.

Great River Golf Club

Here's another one of Richard Esposito's weddings that I assisted him with. Great River is a beautiful place for photography. They have an awesome bridal suite that I could have stayed in for an hour. I always have fun with mirrors and their reflections. Corey & Cameron had the most beautiful day in June and a circular seating plan for their outdoor wedding that was too cool. Everyone can see!

Wedding at Waters Edge

I've worked with my friend Richard Esposito several times recently. June is always busy, and it's great to have other photographers that you feel comfortable working with. The bottom line is that weddings can come at you like a fast moving freight train. This was the case for Sarah & Doug's wedding ceremony and reception at Waters Edge. The rain started just as the outdoor ceremony began. Richard had the weather map up on his iphone and the satellite image of Connecticut was just a big red blob on top of us. It became a fast moving lens toss off for me. Everyone was totally patient (while getting soaked) but best of all, Sarah & Doug were just beaming.

Happy Independence Day!

A big party day for most people in the US, but the dictionary definition of Independence Day is, "July 4, a holiday in the United States commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776." So say a prayer to your fellow Americans who are fighting for our right to freedom and have a safe holiday.
