Baby Showers Can Be So Cute!

While Im catching up on photos, I thought I'd make a quick post to show how cute baby showers can be ... look at the lil bunnies, pink and blue; the clothes line for the table placecards; and the decorative onesies!

College Sweeties from Ireland :: New York City Hall Wedding Photography

On Friday, I photographed Louise and Kieran's sweet city hall wedding.  Theyre college sweethearts from Ireland - and decided to marry in New York (it's apparently less hassle to do it here than in Ireland where you would have to take off a Tuesday etc.)  Despite a few hurdles in the morning (the subway I was on had smoke and everyone had to evacuate!), the session turned out smoothly and we shot portraits nearby and in Grand Central.  They have such a couplely look that on the day prior when they were walking aimlessly around city hall, an local immediately gave them directions to city hall (knowing they were in search of it  to marry!).

A Promenade Proposal (Brooklyn, NY) :: Engagement Photography

My first instructions last night were "be on the further end and hiding."  Because proposals require so much effort and planning, it can be a bit stressful photographing because there's a limited amount of time to capture expression and a risk of having your view obstructed.  

Last night's proposal on the Brooklyn promenade was quick and fun - there was a professional ukelele player who nonchalantly walked up to the couple and started playing two songs - "You are the Sunshine of My life" and "Over the Rainbow." In the third photo, he is the man sitting alone wearing sunglasses.  The weather couldnt have been more perfect in the city!
