guilianna’s sweet 16
I was referred to this gorgeous girl’s Dad who was planning her whole Sweet 16 by a photografriend and I was so glad she did! Guilianna was stunning in her lavender gown (complete with a train that got bustled up later in the evening) and her amazing red hair. She truly looked like a princess! I was only there for a short while, but it was a great party attended by some super nice kids. I hope to meet them again in my travels, they were a wonderful family to work with. Happy Birthday Guilianna!

the kra block party
This has become an annual traditional shoot for me which I am very happy about! It’s always a super fun afternoon/evening filled with fun people and rockin bands and this year was the same- we even had good weather this year. And for the first time their son played a duet with his dad (Jackson on drums just like his dad, dad on guitar) on Johnny Cash’s Folsom Prison Blues. Jackson even had groupies!! There was a freshly engaged couple, a waterslide, a few bands, a pop-up surprise birthday cake, lots of food, drinks and fun!

jessica’s sweet 16
So this sweet young lady who just celebrated her sweet 16 is the niece of a high school classmate & friend. I was so happy to not only see Tami and catch up a little between shots but to meet and photograph her niece’s special day! It was a super cute Parisian themed party at the Sunset Harbor in East Patchogue (I’ve lived on Long Island basically my whole life give or take, and never knew this place even existed. Its way off the beaten path and you’d never find it if you didn’t know about it). We had a kinda muted sunset with lots of cloud cover but we made it work anyway. My favorite part besides the people were the awesome macrons- one in Tiffany Blue that matched my car!

shayna’s graduation brunch
A brand new to bsquared family that was celebrating their daughter’s high school graduation with a special brunch at the Viana hotel with some close friends and family. Shayna is such a great young lady and very photogenic too! I was happy to meet and photograph them for a little while during their celebrations. Everyone was so nice and friendly and Shayna was surrounded but lots of love! Wishing her the best of luck in all her future endeavors!

gillian’s pre-prom party
I had the pleasure of photographing Gillian’s pre-prom (for SSHS’s prom) a week and a half ago at her beautiful home. The kids and families were all super nice and everyone was very excited for the days/evening’s events. It was blazing hot out and I have no idea how these kids looked so good and so cool, but they did. Meanwhile, I was sweating like a was running a marathon (ok, so what i think it would be like if i did ever run a marathon, but we all know that would never, ever, ever happen). I hope they all had a wonderful night at the prom and a happy graduation the next day!
