Claudia + Kelvin Married -

Rain, Rain, did not go away…we got lots of rain the day prior to the wedding.  The day of the wedding we got even more down pours.  Everyone tried their very best to make the most of the day.  We had more or less a 30 minute break in which the skies cleared and the sun shined thru this was the time that we used to do the first look and take some images of the bride and groom.  All in all everyone had a blast.  Enjoy the images…

The one thing that got me so excited about this wedding was that Julisa knew exactly how she wanted her wedding day to be.  From booking all of the vendors such as the photography, video, photo booth, church, venue, flowers, decorations etc. Julisa did it all by herself.  Yes, she planned and researched day and night for over one year to make sure that she got what she had envisioned.  The wedding was fabulous in all aspects.

My one desire in my future journey thru providing photography service to future clients will be to find many other brides such as Julisa.  My experience in working with her was more than what I expected – thanks : )

Congratulations to Julisa and Steven on their wedding!

Please feel free to take a look at the Julisa & Steven Video Wedding Highlight – Producedby an amazing videographer team – GT MODERN CREATIONS.  For any type of video coverage I highly recommend their services…this is how wedding videography should be.

The day is almost finally here, Friday October 14th 2011 is when this wedding will take place at a gorgeous golf course by Orchard Beach and not too far from this engagement photo shoot location.

I met this couple a little over a year ago via word of mouth from someones wedding that I photographed as a test run to see if wedding photography would be something that might interest me (which it has).  Working with the bride and groom to be has been a very pleasing experience.  I am looking forward to photograph their wedding and will do my very best to capture their day in the very best possible way.

My goal always is to be able to tell a story of the day behind the images taken. I need to be able to bring the bride and groom, friends and family back to the wedding day each and every time that they take a look at the images.

Natalie Claros – Sweet 15 was celebrated on Saturday August 20, 2011

This is one of my many favorite images from the day.   I totally love the father’s expression…reminds me of the happiness I feel when I look at my daughters.  I just can’t believe how fast they grow and how fast time goes by.

I had a wonderful time photographing Erica and her stunning daughter Mia who just turned 5 years old – Happy Birthday to Mia!  This age in a child’s live becomes a new stage in their life.  Kids grow pretty fast and in order to capture those moments in their lives we as parents need to make sure that we do this via video and or photography.

These are the images from Erica and her stunning daughter Mia photo session.
Thanks Erica for having me take these memorable images for you and your daughter : ]

Happy Memorial Day Weekend 2011 – went to visit my sister at Hackettstown NJ during the memorial day weekend.  I wanted to capture shots of all of us doing our own stance and at the same time I wanted to capture the wonderful clouds.  I chose 9 shots out of the 18 shots that I took in order to create this composite.

Composite of 9 Shots – Memorial Day Weekend – 5/29/2011
-Two SB900 @ 1/2 power each inside the Lumiquest LTP softbox fired by cybersync
-Nikon 85mm f/1.4 @ f/16
-ISO 100
Shot taken during day time at around 4:00pm

The long drive to and from Long Island (1.5 hrs each way) was well worth it, I feel that we got some very nice images.  The more I shoot maternity the more I tend to enjoy capturing those moments for the mom to be. Thanks for having me as your photographer!

Congrats to Vicky on her first child that’s on the way.  We had a great time capturing these moments.  Thanks to my wife that actually came with me to assist and to hopefully learn some lighting and photography.  I think I might have an assistant in my hands : – )

I look forward to photograph the newborn…stay tuned!
