So last week, I traveled to NYC to meet some people I have been in contact via the web in the industry & to shoot an engagement session in the city and guest shoot a wedding in Jersey.
There is SO much to tell about my trip, so I think I will save it for another post.
What I can say is I love the city and I LOVE the people in it!
I arrived Thursday after a red-eye. The weather was volutile so all my plans were on the fly with the exception of the wedding on Saturday in Jersey and the engagement session in the city on Sunday.
When I say volutile, I mean one minute drizzle (no big), to clouds clearing and beautiful sun to a hurricane sweeping through the streets and umbrellas being thrown inside out and blown from the clutches of weary travelers & locals alike.
I really didn't care what the weather brought, because I was thrilled to be there, meet people and shoot!
So Sunday I awoke with much surprise to an amazing glow of sun; the weatherman had said it would be rainy with possible snow.

My engaged couple must have prayed to the sun gods and their praise must go a long way because we could not have had a more perfect day!!!!
Around 2:30 my couple Gladys and Roy pull up and I jump in their SUV.
Ok so wait, a bit of backstory how this all actually happened.
I said I was going to meet some friends I acquired via the web, one being Nicola the founder & CEO of the Bridal Crate Magazine.
With plans to meet with her, I though it would be fun to have them host a contest for a free eSession.
Gladys & Roy ended up being the winners!!!!
I couldn't have been more thrilled that they won! Not only did the win the contest but they WON my heart!
We hit it off with so many of life experiences in common.
This couple is so madly in love, so energetic and so perfect for each other.
I love it when I meet people whom are AUTHENTIC!
The day could not have been more perfect.
There is SO much to tell & show from our 3 hour session and then night of fabulous food, drinks and new FRIENDS that this will have to be a 2 part series!
Gladys & Roy congrats on winning & even more congrats on your future nuptials!
I can't wait to see you both again!
Check out the kiss in the reflection in the stem of the Champagne glass... gotcha!
Running away from paparazzi....
Now safe in each other's arms behind closed doors.
