2009 overview – my favourite wedding images

December 24, 2009

2009 was another wonderful crazy-busy year for me. Photographing weddings and various photo sessions make up the majority of my work as a photographer, which include the wedding albums that had to be designed. Then I also presented 17 photography workshops across the USA; and 4 sold-out workshops in the UK and Ireland! Another major event was that my book on flash photography was released in August ’09.

Most of what I do though, centers around the weddings that I photograph. This year again I met and worked with wonderful brides and groom and their families. As a thank you – and also to show off a bit – here is a slideshow of some of my favourite images of the year. Thank you to everyone who made me part of a most special day in their lives.

Megan & Mike ..

December 21, 2009

Megan and Mike was so much fun to work with – an energetic and sexy couple. And who doesn’t love a bride that knows how to move and play for the camera!

.
Megan’s hair looked exceptional with this modern retro styling. Very fashionable!

.
The church ceremony was at the impressive St George’s Orthodox Chutrch in Clifton (NJ), Mark is of Romanian descent, hence the ceremony was an Orthodox Christian one, with all the beautiful rituals that is part of that.

.
We had rained out in the afternoon, and had to do all the portraits inside. But later the evening when we did a few more romantic portraits at the Valley Regency, we were able to slip outside since the rain had cleared. The lights in the gardens always work as a great backdrop.

As I said, they know how to move on the dancefloor!

Always a tender moment – the bride dancing with her dad ..

The Perinita was one of the traditional dances the guests took part in, inviting different partners into the vibrant dance sequence.

Megan & Mike – congratulations on getting married. Stay in touch.

Milene & Don ..

November 29, 2009

Milene and Don wedding day took place on a crisp Fall day. Milene has a beautiful graceful elegance about her and Don has a wonderful laid back demeanor .. all of which translates into some very elegant photos. But don’t let that fool you. The two of them still know how to have a lot of fun ..

From earlier in the day during Milene’s preparation - best friends ..

The image above was taken by Stephanie Zettl, a St Louis wedding photographer, who worked with me on the day.

This imposing cathedral makes for a dramatic setting for Milene and Don’s wedding ceremony .. but also makes for a beautiful backdrop for a few romantic portraits afterwards.
