    gabby & john turn 40!

    They say that 40 is the new 30, and what better way to celebrate than having a joint husband and wife “white” birthday party?! So that’s just what they did and I got to photograph it. With lots of friends and family in attendance and a white theme and a havana theme too, a great night was had by all! And the light up and neon accessories were a super fun end to the night. Happy birthday to Gabby & John- you guys will rock the 40s!

    madison’s sweet 16

    Madison is not only gorgeous and a talented dancer, but sweet as could be! I’ll actually be seeing her and some of her best dance friends today for another shoot. The party was awesome, everyone was having a great time and dancing their butts off. Having a bunch of very fabulous dancers at a sweet 16 makes for an extra fun party! Happy Sweet 16!

    the manhasset senior frolic- part 2

    …landed in Nashville! And being that I recently got back from my very first trip there in real life, I can attest to what an incredible job these parents did on recreating so many landmarks! The country music HOF, Lower Broadway, the Parthenon, etc. The bull ride, the blow up ride reminiscent of American Gladiators, the table games, the “sky lounge”, the live band, the monogrammed basketball court, the “store”,  and all the dessert bars only added to the atmosphere. I mean the neon signs?! It was all amazing!

    the manhasset senior frolic

    The frolic is a time honored tradition (I think I heard something like 100 years or something crazy like that) where the parents set up the gym at the high school in a theme. Ok, so you’re thinking some decorations, crepe paper, maybe a few cut outs or a photo wall or something. Well, its SO MUCH more! I couldn’t believe the time, effort and absolutely amazing skill that went into making this evening amazing for all of these seniors. There are some super talented parents out there- like movie set amazing. Everything is built by hand and not a detail is missed. I’m going to give it to you in parts because there is just so much to show you and I don’t want you to miss any details. And none of the kids know what the theme is so it’s a complete surprise. They started with a “flight” from the Manhasset HS airport on their signature airline setBlue. Wait till you see where they end up!
