erica & rich get married {the portraits}
I got the nicest text from the bride who generally HATES pictures of herself. She said looking at these were the first time she ever wanted to be in a picture that others would actually see! That’s a great compliment! So here are some more from the fabulous wedding of two fabulous families!

Brendan & Luke graduate
More of my favorite Manhasset crew (and one of the families that I said I was just going to move into their pool house) had a graduation luncheon for their boys and families. Luckily, Brendan and I have finally come to an understanding. He loathes me taking his picture every year but this year we came to an agreement. Just in time too, because he was at like every Manhasset event I photographed in the last few weeks! Congratulations to both boys (whom I’ve been photographing since they were really little!) and good luck at Villanova and Michigan!! (And sorry to them for having to put with me for all these years and future apologies for the future too for more shoots, hopefully!)

christina & despina’s graduation party {on a boat}
These two families held a giant joint graduation party for their girls on a yacht around NYC. It was quite the event and everyone had a great time with lots of dancing, fun and WIND. The skylines were a gorgeous backdrop for the gorgeous girls and their families. I’m sure you’ll see lots of my favorite Manhasset families in attendance and I want to thank them for recommending me to Christina & Despina’s families. Congratulations to the girls and all of the Manhasset graduates!

erica & rich get married {the ceremony}
A lovely wedding for a lovely couple and their families! Since they both come from previous relationships, there is a lot of blending going on with them so when I met with Erica she wanted the entire wedding celebration to be for EVERYONE, especially all the kids. And it was! It was a beautiful ceremony- all so heartfelt and personal. Erica’s dad was the officiant, all the kids were the wedding party (also Rich’s dad as best man), a reading/speech by her sister. So many happy tears and laughter! Stay tuned for more from this beautiful wedding.

kenny’s run2remember dinner
I’m hoping you’ll remember my good friend Kenny’s Run2Remember in honor of his brother Kevin and a few other local families who lost other family members in untimely passings. Kenny ran (along with lots of friends and family- some for parts, some for all) 27 miles over 24 hours with the goal of raising $27,000 to donate to these families’ foundations in conjunction with the Tommy Brull Foundation. (The number 27 is for the last 27 days of his late brother’s life). $7,000 went to EACH of these organizations to help others. Kenny has the biggest heart and is dedicated to giving back in rememberence of all of these very special people. I hope even more people participate and donate next year!
