Hardine Girls

October 15th was a busy day for us - Kim shot a portrait session of Rocca Hardine's girls and I shot a family portrait of the Purschke family.
First Kim's shoot....

Purschke Family Portrait

I went over to Joe and Cindy's house on October 15th to shoot the family portrait for their Holiday Card this year. They live in a great house that was beautifully decorated for fall and have a huge back yard - great for photo ops! We did some formals of Joe, Cindy, the children and their dog Harley then we let the children run wild and shot some great candids until there was literally no light left!! For the photographers out there, the trampoline shot at the end was shot at 1/30 second f2.8 at ISO 3200!

Jacqueline & Neil

Three years ago I was hired to shoot the wedding of a really nice couple - Jeannie and Mark. It's always nice to keep in touch with the folks you shoot, especially when you are a part of such an important day in their lives so when Jeannie called and asked me to shoot a portrait session of their new TWINS, naturally I was delighted. Jacqueline and Neil are only a few months old but were incredibly well behaved and loved the camera. Here are a few shots from the session - I look forward to many more!!

Landregan and Dean's Wedding

Landregan and Dean got married at Gurneys in Montauk on October 6th. The day was perfect for photography - the sun never appeared and we had nice even illumination the whole day. However, there was a fine fog that hung around and made for some ethereal type images on the beach.

Landregan in her Bridal Suite..

And checking out her engagement ring..

Dean ties a Windsor Knot for his Best Man..


If you get married at Gurneys, you have to have the ceremony on the beach! Well, you don't HAVE to but it would be a crime not to. I was able to get to the hotel as the event staff were setting up the ceremony area - notice the fog rolling in with the tide..

Landregan and her dad had had quite an audience as she approached the 'aisle'..

Beach Ceremony...

This woman walking along the water's edge looks like she is about to walk on the officiant's head!

Nice candid of the Bride and Groom after we had finished doing the formal shots...


Landregan's brother was a highly decorated Air Force pilot and a really nice guy also..

..and finally a view of the reception tent as the party was in full swing..

Morris Family Portrait - October 3rd

Kim went out on Peter and Laura's boat to photograph their beautiful daughters for this years Christmas Card. We have worked with Laura and Peter quite a lot and almost feel like family now..


Here are the three girls on the boat as the sun was setting.


..and goofing around a little.

Katrina & Michael Slideshow

I'm getting addicted to making these slide shows - they just look so completely different to anything else available. Here are Katrina and Michael's engagement photos presented MTV style!

Engagement Video

I just wanted to share a 30 second video from the Jenn and Matt shoot recently. I like the way this turned out - I might just have to produce one for all my e-sessions!! - it has a certain MTV, Rock Star quality to it!
