Sheryl & Rick Wedding - November 10, 2007

I had a great time photographing Sheryl & Rick's wedding back in November. I photographed their engagement session back in July. Their wedding was at the world famous Palace Hotel in Manhattan, NYC. The venue was breathtaking and is one of my favorites. Below are some of my faves from the wedding with a link to more on the bottom.

Sheryl had her beautiful make up and hair done at an NYC salon.

Some portraits of the beautiful bride.

Sheryl's bridemaids/bridesman. The one bridesman pictured is Sheryl's brother Brandon Tierney, ESPN radio sports personality.

Rick checking out the awesome view from his Palace Hotel suite before he gets ready.

Rick with his groomsmen. If you happen to notice the cast on Rick's foot, it's there because Rick accidently broke his foot a month before the wedding. Despite the injury, both he and Sheryl were in good spirits for their special day.

Bellydance Photo Session with Oreet - October 26, 2007

The next bellydance photo session was with my good friend Oreet who's a top NYC bellydancer. She's won many awards for her bellydance performances and was runner up for the "Jewel of the Nile" Bellydance pageant. She also teaches bellydance lessons at Crunch gyms. I've known Oreet for over 10 years and I actually photographed her wedding back in 04'. I have really fond memories of her wedding day. Below are some of my favorites from the photo session.

Bellydance Photo Session with Amira Mor - October 25, 2007

It's been a pretty long time since I shot some bellydance and fine art photography. As the wedding season winds down, my bellydance and fine art photography picks up. It was a pleasure shooting Amira Mor. She's a phenominal dancer from NJ and she needed some new promo shots for an upcoming bellydance instructional DVD. Here a few of my favorites from the session. The studio stuff was shot at my photo studio apartment and the outdoor stuff was shot on the rooftop of my NYC apartment building.

Elaine & Leo Engagement Photo Session - October 22, 2007

A few months back, I had the pleasure shooting an engagement session with Elaine and Leo.

The photo session was really fun and I think it led to some amazing shots. Below are just a few of my favorites.

Seides Family Photo Session - October 21, 2007

Back in August of 04', I photographed one of my favorite weddings of all time for one of my favorite couples, Shari and Ted. I still remember their magical wedding at Tavern on the Green as if it was yesterday and I still show off a sample album from their wedding to many of my potential clients. In the years since their wedding Shari and Ted have moved to the suburbs of Connecticut with the intention of starting a family. Well their plan was a success and they recently welcomed twins into their lovely family. Recently, Shari had contacted me to take a fun family photo session with her, Ted and their two children, Ryan and Skylar. The kids are just adorable. We had a blast and here's some of my faves.

Here's a pic I took of Shari and Ted from their 04' wedding.

Here's how they look now. They still look fantastic. Notice that Shari has not put on a pound since giving birth to the kids. She's fantastic.

Skylar.

Ryan.

We took lots of photos at a nearby playground.
