This was a much anticipated wedding. This one had it all on a grand scale. Michelle and DJ went all out. This was a wedding that left nothing behind. Michelle looked amazing and the girls were fabulous. DJ was smooth and the guys well they were guys. Michelle’s attention to detail was ridiculous. They had their reception at the elegant Westmount Country Club. I summoned the services of my home girl Millie B. This wedding was just crazy, I loved it. Let’s check it out. Starting with Michelle and the girls.

Michelle llooked out of this world. I just felt for DJ. Poor guy didn't know what was going to hit him.

Millie worked with DJ and those crazy groomsmen. She was up for the challenge. Millie B is a little bulldog and she can hold her own.

The ladies looked hot in those dresses.

Michelle was working it from every angle. Love the red door at her parent's house.

Millie at work doing what she does best

These guys were having some fun with DJ as he had to go to all his sponsors and kiss their hands as a sign of respect. The guys wanted some love to.

A happy groom!

The details were amazing!

The little ones were having fun as well. Those are virgin drinks so it's all good.

The newly renovated Westmount is super cool for inside photos. Check out the dome is changes colors. Nice touch.

I don't think I have ever seen a happier bunch of guys after the garter was tossed. They were OC.

In the mist of all the choas at the end of the night Michelle and DJ managed to get a little lovin in.

Awesome wedding guys! You definitely had a memorable wedding and one I will never forget. Everything was perfect and I thank you for letting Millie and myself part take in this incredible day. Congrats!

Paige and Jeff all I have to say is that you both ROCK! It was a kick ass wedding from beginning to end. Paige and Jeff were fun, relaxed and willing all things that I love in couples. I started with Paige in Tarrytown where she got ready and I had so much time to do my thing and the images look awesome I must say. Paige looked classic and elegant and was great in front of the camera. I had the pleasure of having my boy Alex aka A-Rod shoot with me. Yes that’s right Paige and Jeff had to baseball/photography All-Stars at the wedding. LOL! Paige and Jeff had their reception at the lovely Nyack Seaport which is right in my backyard it’s so close to my studio. Let’s take a look at the day’s images,

Emily and John had a beautiful wedding at the Shore and Country Clubin Norwalk , CT off the Long Island Sound. Emily looked radiant in her Nicole Miller dress and sandals. Emily and John had a beach themed wedding and the details reflected their vision. The reception was a party from beginning to end. Everyone was dancing and having a good time the whole night. I even got on the mike with the band and sang a little something. There is always a first and that was one. Emily and John were so lovely and wonderful and great to work with. I also had the pleasure of having Todd Matarazzo work with me. Todd did a great good and we had a blast. Let’s take a look,

Alison and Ben are that couple that everyone wanted to be. They are fun, cool, romantic and truly in love. Alison works at Tappan Zee Florist in Nyack. Tami the owner did a fabulous job with the flowers. Alison came to me through Erica from Lief Boutique in Nyack. Alison and Ben married at the View on the Hudsonin Piermont. Alison looked incredible and was so relaxed the day of the wedding and she was just happy and joyful the whole day. There was nothing that was going to get in her way no even the rain that came down especially during the ceremony. Ben was one of the coolest grooms ever and my home girl Millie B worked with him and the guys. We were also joined by Joy from Joyous Productionsone of my favorite videographers that I love to work with. Despite the rainy weather we captured some amazing images.

Alison got her hair and make up right down the hall from my studio at Erica's salon Leif Boutique.

Alison had some amazing details throughout every aspect of the day.

Alison just rocked her portraits. She was confident in front of the camera and just knew what to do.

The girls rocked and just had fun with Alison.

This is a killa image!

Ben was very photogenic and Millie B was able to do her thing and capture Ben at his best.

The ceremony was decked out!

Millie just has the nack for being at the right place at the right time and capture was awesome stuff.

Alison and Ben were just fun to photograph despite having to do everything inside. We were able to find some places and do out thing and even escape outside for a few night shots.

Sweet!

A cool Millie B shot.

This is a Millie B special. Just always at the right place right time.

Alison and Ben you guys just ROCK! What else can I say you are both wonderful and fabulous. Thanks for letting us be a part of your special day. Congrats!

It was a great pleasure to photograph this couple they were just awesome with a capital A. Melissa and Calvin had their reception at the historic Larchmont Shore Club. It was a wonderful venue to work at. The building is gorgeous and the grounds are just as beautiful. The day was perfect and so was the couple. Melissa and Calvin both got ready at the club which was great because I got to get portraits and work with each of them. The bridal party was also fun and outgoing. The wedding was also filed with so many laughs and emotions, it was a wonderful experience and an honor to be a part of it and capture it.

Melissa loved the camera and the camera felt the same it loved Melissa. She was great to work with and just knew what to do before I said anything.

Calvin was the Man! The brother looked sharp like a knife and smooth like butter.

The ceremony was truly special. Melissa had a couple of her Opera friends sing and they sung like angels.

The fellas knew how to work it. And look at all that blue.

We went to a near by park in Larchmont a few blocks away from the shore club.

The cake was yummy! I had seconds

These two were so into each other it was scary in a good way!

Calvin's speech moved us all. Melissa couldn't hold back.

Melissa knew how to get her dance on all night. Work it girl!

I was able to get a few more of Melissa & Calvin. Check these out!

One of my favs of the day! Very romantic!

Melissa and Calvin you guys are truly a wonderful couple and I knew that from the first day we met. You are both extraordinary and I wish you both nothing but the absolute best. Congrats!
