Wedding photographer NJ NYC
Wedding photographer, NJ & NYC: Wedding photography is something I truly love. I’m a photographer based in northern New Jersey – Passaic County & Morris County areas. I live in Wayne and have a studio in Fairfield, NJ. However, I am not locked to New Jersey, since I photograph weddings in New York and all across the Tri-State Area.
I would love to photograph your wedding, and work with you to and capture the spirit of your wedding day – the mood and feel of everything surrounding the celebration as you and your loved one marry each other. With a photo-journalistic approach, I want to give you images of your wedding that will look timeless – moments which encapsulate your wedding day – and give you photographs that will be a lasting memory of this important day.
Acclaim – Some of the recognition I have received in the photography industry – including being listed as a ‘Legend of Light’ by Profoto, the leading manufacturer of studio lighting gear. There are also links to where I have been showcased in some of the photography industry magazines.
Please contact me about your upcoming wedding or event.
I would love to hear from you.

Wedding Photographer NJ & NYC : My approach is modern wedding photography in a style that has moved away from the purely traditional setups, and stilted way of controlling and photographing a wedding. Yet, I truly believe that at the heart of it, the most essential photograph of the day is a portrait of the two of you together – the newly-wed bride and groom. With this in mind, we will collaborate and have fun with the romantic portrait session to capture that essential spark that exists between you.
A wedding is also a time when family and friends get together in a way that they only rarely do. So I’ll make sure we get those important family photographs too.
Feel free to check out the wedding photography gallery for more wedding-day eye-candy. This gallery and the weddings shown on my wedding photography blog will show you the consistently high standard of photography that you would expect for your own wedding. There’s also more info about my style in wedding photography. Please feel free to contact me if you’d like more info, or book me as your wedding photographer.

New York elopement wedding photography : A wedding in New York is exciting! After the wedding ceremony (perhaps in Central Park or at City Hall), we’ll have an extended photo session with your partner. Using the New York cityscape as a backdrop, we’ll get beautiful energetic portraits of the two of you. A beautiful remind of a wonderful day.
We will collaborate and figure out a route that we can travel to hit some of the best known New York landmarks. The Empire State Building, Times Square, Central Park, Columbus Circle, 5th Avenue … there are so many places we can stop by. For example, there is the breath-taking view of lower Manhattan as seen from the Brooklyn Waterfront near the Brooklyn Bridge.
Together we will figure out a scenic NYC route together beforehand. And if this is your first time, I can help you there as well to make this a memorable trip and photo session. We’ll walk some, and we can travel by taxi or rickshaw or Subway. With all that, the photo session will also become be a great memory of your wedding day.
If you are planning your New York elopement wedding, please contact me. I’d love to hear from you.
