Birthdays from 1 to 100

 This June I had the pleasure of photographing two very special birthday milestones, Delaney's 1st birthday and my own Grandmother Grace's 100th birthday.   I photographed Delaney and her parents near their home in Hoboken, NJ.  I was completely charmed by her easy going nature and sense of humor...traits she has clearly acquired from her parents.

Just a few days later I was in Bristol, Maine with family and friends, and couldn't help snapping a few frames at my grandmother's centennial party.  She is just one of those ladies that knows how to work the camera... always poised and full of smiles.  May it be a wonderful year ahead for both Grace and Delaney!

And a few weeks later in Bristol, Maine....

Jersey City Hyatt Wedding ~ NJ Wedding Photography

As a wedding photographer, I see a lot of good parties and packed danced floors, but Matt and Jenn's wedding at the Hyatt Regency really took the cake! Yes, the dance floor was full the entire night, but what made it so much fun was the enthusiasm and energy of the couple and their guests. You will see a few of those choice dance moves below! The couple held their ceremony on location, which made for a seamless transition into cocktail hour. While family and friends enjoyed drinks overlooking the Hudson river and lower Manhattan, the staff and DJ put the finishing touches on the Hyatt's lovely ballroom. Lots of lush purple flowers and linens, topped with a sprinkling of bling made for the perfect amount of glam. As the evening progressed and the sun set, the beautiful NYC skyline lite up for a backdrop that just can't be topped.... have a look!
