There's so many great things I have to say about this couple.  First off, I love animals and especially when clients decide to bring their pets along during the photo shoot.  Seeing them both interact with their dog definitely brings out their characteristics. In addition, their wedding this year will be at the Venetian Yacht Club, which is the same venue where my wife and I got married. While I will be creating new memories for this sweet couple, I will be reliving some valuable memories of my own!  Eddie and Cindy definitely has great taste with choosing their vendors and details for the wedding.

We decided to have our photo shoot at Fort Tyron Park.  In New York City, we have plenty of parks but what amazes me about Fort Tyron is the beautiful view and paths.  After introducing this location to Eddie and Cindy, they were sold once they heard about the stone buildings, Hudson river view and scenic paths.  Thank you both for such an enjoyable photo shoot, I can't wait to capture your wedding later this year!

I feel so lucky to be able to photograph this lovely couple.  Not only because they are fun and easy to photograph, but because they are genuinely good-hearted and down to earth people.  Christina and Monroe are both dedicated runners and competition is definitely in their system.  Not only is that obvious since they are a great looking couple, but their dedication to working hard in life and in their relationship is clearly visible as well.  They are a couple that is completely in love and in sync.  I always tell myself that to reach any goal, whether it's a finish line at a race or a life goal, it's always best to complete it with a partner by your side.  With that said, Christina and Monroe are partners that can tackle any obstacles in their path together. 

With the unusually warm winter behind us, we embraced the warm early spring weather for our engagement shoot.  And I learned from this photo shoot that New Jersey has some great gems for photography.  Photographing at Liberty State Park in Jersey City was such a pleasure.  From breathtaking views of the New York City skyline to tall monument walls, we definitely enjoyed our time out there.  Thank you both for being such great company on a beautiful spring day!  You were both so enjoyable to work with!  We're only several months away to your big day and looking forward to it!

Fire Island is always an exciting and romantic place to shoot engagement photos, and for Anna and Jack the beautiful scenery only added to the already passionate sparks between them. Anna and Jack will be joining together in marriage this coming December and I could see such excitement and anticipation in their eyes. They were such fun to work with and very photogenic!

Going for a stroll along the deck, the lovely couple could barely take their eyes off of one another. Joy seemed to just spring out of them as they smiled at one another lovingly. A quiet moment here and there is a breathtaking picture of how love should be; both fun and serious but always sincere. It was clear as I started snapping the shots that this couple has that true love. Their affections were both natural and sincere.

A smile can say a thousand words, but no words are necessary when Anna and Jack are in each other's arms. They just enjoy their time together. The couple embraces with the brilliant, old lighthouse in the background, and it is the perfect symbol of the marriage that Anna and Jack are sure to have--strong, powerful and growing evermore special with every year that passes.

Down on the beach the beautiful ocean and waves are just too much for this happy couple, and Jack picks Anna up and spins her around as the two playfully embrace. The scene is just too romantic for words and yet all these two can do is stare deeply into each other's eyes and pull close for a sweet kiss. Yes, there was love in the air on Fire Island, and Anna and Jack were creating a heat of their own!

I had such a blast at this photo shoot and enjoyed the company of this beautiful couple. Thank you Anna and Jack and may your marriage be as beautiful as the two of you are together!
