    Some reception details:

     The venue (H on the Harbor in Pt. Washington) was so cool and trendy. Way Miami Beach with the neon and white couches and lounge areas. And the food was awesome- all passed little delicious things plus a sushi bar. Yum!

    All before the ceremony with the excitement building.

    The ceremony was so great!! They laughed and smiled their way thru the whole thing (as did all their guests). Ivy was giggling like crazy and busted out with “I just never thought we would actually get here!!”. This was Steve’s reaction:

    Lots from the ceremony. The kids stood up there with their parents for the whole thing and played an important part in the vows.

    ivy & steve’s wedding- part 1 (getting ready)

    Ivy and I have been friends since we’re 8 years old. Hebrew school, sleep away camp (yay Sequoia!), school, marraiges, kids, tons of inside jokes….everything. So I was of course beyond thrilled when she and Steve got engaged. He’s such a great guy and the two families have meshed so well. I was just so elated to see Ivy and the kids so happy!

    web121

    And I was even happier that Ivy asked me to take pictures at their wedding last month. I knew it would be a bit of a challenge (but who dosen’t love a challenge) cause Ivy LOVES taking pictures but Steve? Steve does NOT love taking pictures. At all. He was good though and really was very patient with me and my camera. Thanks, Steve.

    Ivy’s fabulous dress, and even more fabulous shoes. Her BFF from college came in to help her get everything ready.

    The ride over to the reception was fun in the amazingly cheezyLasVegasZebraprintLasershowHummer limo. Love the reflection on the mirrored ceiling too.

    happy 4th

    Yes, I’m alive. No, I have nothing new to post really. Well, I should be posting a lot but nothing’s ready yet. Been editing like crazy and soon I will have LOTS to post.  After the weekend. I hope.

    Still to come: Ivy & Steve’s wedding, Garrett & Susan’s trash the dress session,  The Atlantic Beach Club Opening Gala, two highschool friends shoots- one from CT the other from St. Louis, and a few shots from Timmy’s best friends little brother’s christening, and then I have two newborn shots tommorrow. So, if you just keep hanging in there, it should be worth it.

    And in other news…Robin’s baby (baby Eoin who was born at 25 weeks) is doing so wonderfully. He’s now over 4lbs (born at 2lbs), almost completely off the ventilator (at the lowest setting on just positive airflow), and is now in a regular crib instead of the isolette. His grandma got to visit for the first time and hold him too! Here’s a new picture of Eoin (pronounced Owen- it’s the Irish version) I stole off their webpage.

    And my good friend from college, Nate will be moving back to the US after living in Australia for the last 3 years. Can’t wait to see him, his wife Colleen and their two girls (one of which I met when she was about 2 weeks old and the other I have never met as she was born in Australia- how cool!) and take tons of pictures for them. Guess we’ll be heading down to DC in August!! So excited!!!

    Hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July.  We’re off to the beach in a few…

  • i'm with the band

    the turn @ arctica nyc

    Went last week to catch my favorite band at another 3rd Ave. gig in the city. But this time, it was the full band playing which is always a great show. Ends up that Arctica liked them so much that The Turn was offered an ongoing gig with the full band for something like 7 dates this summer. So awesome!

    My friend Lois came down from CT last night for a sushi dinner and a photography lesson. We had a great time and I really hope she learned something inbetween us catching up and laughing. She’s so sweet and a regular blog stalker so she brought the boys some awesome baseball cookies (which were devoured minutes after the pictures were taken). Thanks, Lois!! They loved them!

    We are at a fever pitch level (pun intended) with baseball around here. John took all the boys to a Brooklyn Cyclones game last night, they’ve had baseball camp every morning this week (and next week too) , a travel team practice Monday night and an away game tonight.

    I’m so behind in editing, processing orders, cleaning the house…everything. New pictures coming soon. And my shoot today for another highschool friend who’s back ‘home’ from St. Louis is in limbo with the weather.

    Hope everyone is having a good day.
