A Trip to Guy Fieri American Kitchen and Bar

Congrats to Rich for the new restaurant opening at Guy Fieri's American Kitchen and Bar (opened this week).  It was very fun to get a quick tour of the large restaurant that seats 500!  The place is so cleverly decorated with an eclectic mix of vintage paintings, guitars, mooseheads, kitchenware that I didnt want to put my iPhone cam cam down and wanted to capture it all!

Erika and Craig Marry :: New York City Hall Wedding

One of my favorite city hall weddings ever - totally biased - was Erika and Craig's.  Of course, E has been my close pal since seventh grade.  We grew up together, and over time, have generated quite a few memorable stories.  I'll always remember early on so instantly after they started to date, I told her, Craig is the right guy for you! 

And on a special Friday in June, Mr. Moustache man at city hall married the sweet couple.  Erika wore a classic Theory dress ... one we had shopped for together in the Upper West Side a few years back.  At the time, as she tried to justify the price at the checkout, she said, "I can definitely wear this to a wedding" - little did she know it would be her own!

In the photos, maybe you can tell just a lil bit how wonderful, pretty and pure their love is:

Perfectly Packed Saturday in Beantown

Decided to make a last minute trip to Boston for a wknder that would include food, friends and fotos (2 corporate portraits).  Saturday ended up being so perfectly packed.  The day began early at 8am and included:

- buying 40 potatoes, 10 mangoes, 3 eggplants, at 8am at Haymarket
- photographing with the beautiful Boston skyline in the background
- brunching at Zoe's with an annoyingly high pitched fire alarm in the background (FD had to come in),
- photographing around HBS
- drinking tea w Sarah in Cambridge, and
- cooking lots of food at an Roseann & Marissa catered Indian dinner gathering at night

Such a wonderful day, with bits and pieces documented below:
