Everything about Stacie and Mitch’s wedding day was understated but superbly elegant - from Stacie’s dress, and the nature of the ceremony, to the venue. The ceremony and reception was held at the James Ward Mansion, Westfield - a beautiful and appropriate setting for the day’s events.
Stacie and Mitch, congratulations! 
The following two images shows part of the ceremony where Mitch’s two sons were embraced by the couple during blessings.
Congratulations to Aviva and Matt on their wedding day. Combining a sense of tradition with a modern touch, Aviva and Matt’s wedding was a gorgeous affair. The outdoor ceremony and the reception was held at the Florentine Gardens here in NJ.
I once again worked with my friend Steve Burns, who was the 2nd photographer on this wedding. The image above, taken by Steve, is of the first dance as seen the balcony inside the Florentine Gardens.
Joriana was one of the attendees at the recent workshop on flash photography that I held in Strerling, VA - and she was gracious enough to stand in as a model for us during the practical parts of the workshop. The workshop appears to have been a success judging by some of the response I’ve had after the workshop:
“It was great to meet you yesterday and I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. I learned so much - I could have had an extra half day. I especially enjoyed towards the end of the session with the special lighting and effects. “
“Thank you for an AWESOME workshop! You are so patient and explain things so well. I will practice what I learned and hopefully improve my photography dramatically!”
Thank you to everyone who attended, and thank you to Mindy and Joriana Belcher for helping to arrange the workshop.
John and Iveta’s sense of style and grace shone through on their wedding day. The event was held at the stately Fox Hill Inn, (Connecticut) - the gardens providing a beautiful backdrop to their ceremony.
Here is a slideshow of the best images of the day.

The image on the right was taken by my friend Zofia Waig, who helped me out as the 2nd photographer.
Iveta and John, congrats! It was a real pleasure photographing your wedding.
Laura and Bob, it was great to finally meet the two of you, and get to have fun during this engagement portrait session - and in a few weeks we’ll get do the same on your wedding day.
