Maria & Sherif's Wedding / Terrytown, NY~ April 25-26th

On Friday April 25th, we arrived in NY a day early to capture Maria & Sherif's Muslim Ceremony where they made it official! Then we took a spin around Terrytown to site out the coolest spots to create images of Sherif and Maria alone after their Catholic Ceremony the next day. We had so much fun! Here are a few of our favorite images so far!

April Showers bring...well... Daffodils (to Newport at least)

When I first met Stephen & Jill, I found out that Stephen was a pilot and I just KNEW that I had to incorporate it into their wedding day images. They were game right from the get -go! What a bonus that the weather was perfect for flying, perfect for daffodils, and perfect for their wedding overlooking Newport Harbor!

Lensbabies Gurus Announced

The moment I first laid eyes on the Lensbaby lens, I fell in love! I LOOOOOVE the selective focus, the way everything feels dreamy. Every single time I use it, someone asks, "What's that thing?" as they see me bending the tiny plastic slinky-like lens that's attached to the camera. I bend it all around -squeezing, pushing, pulling, tilting- to find the sweet spot where it's in focus (and usually I,m climbing up or under something to get the perfect angle).

Lensbabies picked Alternate Angles as one of their "Guru's" along with 19 other professional photographers working worldwide. It's so great to see how each photographer is using their lens... there are so many cool and talented photographers on this list, I am humbled to be among them!
