SARAH & ALLEN | TRAVEL THEMED NYC ENAGEMENT

Sarah & Allen love to travel and are planning their May 2012 destination wedding in the Riviera Maya, Mexico, so it only made sense to include their favorite hobby (travel, of course!) in their engagement session! Sarah and Allen live in Jackson Heights, but ventured downtown for their session at the South Street Seaport and Financial District. I spend my NYC time living in the Financial District and it’s one of my favorite neighborhoods. There are great little pockets and so much character. Sarah & Allen and I also came up with fun little props, like the “Bon Voyage” banner and suitcases, which will be used on their wedding day.

Can’t wait for your big day, guys! Is it May yet?! :)

AMY & BRETT | FINE ART WEDDING ALBUM

Remember Amy & Brett’s gorgeous wedding at the Semple Mansion in Minneapolis? Over the past couple months we meticulously designed and refined a beautiful heirloom quality album showcasing the best images from their wedding day, and after being printed and bound by hand into a gorgeous leather album, the final product finally arrived at the studio. I love receiving client albums and seeing this finished product. Nothing tells the story of a wedding day better than a custom designed album! I had to photograph this one before reluctantly delivering it to the couple! :)

Only the best would do for Amy & Brett- they upgraded to a 12″x12″ album with 40 pages to include even more images from their wedding day. Not only that, but they also choose a gorgeous silk box with prints of all the images from their day. These silk boxes are so amazing because they are handmade and can be customized with your choice of silk and ribbon colors.  (See more of my silk proof boxes here.)  The prints inside are printed at my professional lab and feature elegant white borders. There is nothing better than holding a printed photograph in your hands. SWOON!!






Pictured below is Amy & Brett’s black silk proof box with black satin ribbon, sitting on top of their album:

The box closes magnetically and I couldn’t resist showing a gorgeous print of Amy’s sparkly Jimmy Choos!
These products truly must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!  Please contact me for more info!

CARRIE & BARAK | TEMPLE ISREAL WEDDING




































Butch McCartney - Beautiful wedding Laura! That thing they are signing looks really cool – like an old family tree or something?! Is that what that is?

Laura - Hey Butch! :) They are signing a Ketubah, which is a Jewish marriage document and usually signed before the ceremony in the Temple! I hope I’m correct, but I believe the Ketubah is usually displayed in the couple’s home and I’ve seen lots of different variations all with script in Hebrew.

Michelle - Beautiful wedding! I love the unique shots of the temple.
