CELEBRATIONS | MR. C’s 80th BIRTHDAY

Mr. C, also known as, Frank, Dad and Papa, celebrated his 80th birthday surrounded by his beautiful wife of 53 years, his eight children and their spouses, and his 33 grandchildren! The incredibly delicious brunch was held at David Burke’s Fromagerie in Rumson and was lovingly organized and hosted by his oldest son Frank and his wife Laurie.

I ran over to the restaurant before everyone arrived to grab a few detail shots of the flowers, provided by Alan’s Rumson Florist, personalized menus, and the paper and ribbon napkin rings made by his daughter-in-law Laurie. Everything was so pretty! By the time brunch was over the temperature outside reached 97°, so I had to move very quickly to make sure no one melted in the extreme heat and humidity. Luckily there was a little cloud cover and breeze! It was a very special day and I was so happy to meet such a gentle man and capture such wonderful images of his family.

ALICIA + SEAN: SOUTH AMBOY

College sweethearts Alicia and Sean nuptials were held in July 2009 at the beautiful St. Mary’s Church in South Amboy, New Jersey. Brandi Grooms, of Brandi Grooms Photography, and I had so much fun photographing the adoring couple’s portraits and reception at the Maplewood Country Club.

SARA & MARK | BALTUSROL WEDDING

I just loved photographing Sara and Mark’s wedding with Alexandra Passage of, Alexandra Passage | Photographer, in May of 2009 in Short Hills, New Jersey. After a beautiful traditional ceremony at St. Rose of Lima Church we were off to Baltusrol Golf Club for a fabulous celebration. Such a lovely couple with wonderful families!

KRISTEN & MICHAEL | NEW YORK ATHLETIC CLUB WEDDING

Kristen and Mike had a gorgeous day for their amazing wedding in Manhattan in October of 2008 at The Church of the Blessed Sacrament, Central Park Conservatory Garden and the New York Athletic Club. Brandi Grooms Johnson and I captured so many wonderful and sweet moments of an adorable and lovely couple. I just LOVE New York City weddings!

ENGAGEMENTS | GRETCHEN + ZACHARY: ASBURY PARK BOARDWALK

Gretchen and Zachary met working as teachers at Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School. I knew Zachary, an art teacher and artist specializing in ceramic sculpture and the raku firing process, Zachary Wilson Art, but had not yet met Gretchen until I photographed their engagement portraits on the Asbury Park Boardwalk.

It was so much fun and after spending the afternoon with the two of them I’m even more excited about their wedding day than before! I really love engagement sessions because I’m able to establish a rapport with my bride and groom that really makes photographing their wedding day that much better!
