A major THANK YOU to all of the vendors who made this shoot possible. I am so thankful for each of you! Vendor Information:
A few weeks ago Huffington Post contacted me for some images from NYC Fall 2012 Bridal Fashion Week. I am honored that they posted a few of my images HERE.
Ines di Santo puts her heart and soul into each collection she debuts. Her Fall 2012 NYC Bridal Market Collection was no different. Over the years, while being the bridal market photographer for Grace Ormonde Wedding Style Magazine I have developed a dear friendship with Ines di Santo and her daughter Veronica. ( I had the privilege of shooting Veronica’s wedding several years ago!) To be the house photographer for their Fall 2012 Bridal Collection was a blast. There’s always so much going on behind the scenes. Enjoy this peak into Ines Di Santo’s Fall 2012 Bridal Collection.
Backstage after the show Ines di Santo ran into dear friend and Celebrity Wedding Coordinator Diann Valentine.

I feel privileged to be featured in this fall’s issue as Grace Ormonde’s runway photographer, and to also have a few tabletops and bouquet spreads. Getting to collaborate with Grace and her team at Wedding Style is always an honor. Now hurry and go check out the latest issue!

During my SoCal Shooting Workshop a few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of working with some amazing vendors who put together an All-American shoot just in time for the Fourth of July. I am so stoked that Abby and her wonderful team at Style Me Pretty featured this shoot yesterday on July 4th!

Atlanta, Georgia is the home of true southern hospitality and real sweet tea.
I love Atlanta weddings because they always embody the complete essence of southern class and charm. Last summer I hosted an Atlanta wedding photographer workshop, and we ended our second day with a wonderfully styled Atlanta wedding shoot. The wonderfully talented Joy Thigpen collaborated with my assistant Kat Harris to creatively design an Atlanta wedding with some southern charm. Southern Weddings featured this shoot, and I am so excited that 8 of the Atlanta wedding photographers in attendance made the feature as well!
Due to the craziness of life I have yet to share this Atlanta wedding photographer shoot with you guys…so here it is. I hope you enjoy!

New York City’s Central Park has always been my favorite backdrop for wedding photography shoots. In April, I conducted a styled shooting workshop for New York City wedding photographers in Central Park. I was very fortunate to have renowned New York wedding stylist Jacqueline Weppner of Mercí New York along with my talented assistant Kat Harris to help style this unique shoot for myself and the 10 New York City wedding photographers who were in attendance. Despite the low temperatures that day and the threat of rain forecasted for New York City, we pulled off an amazing photo shoot with exciting results! As with most of my New York City Wedding Photographer Workshops and wedding photographer workshops around the country, my hard-working staff will submit the images for publication. This workshop was no different and the result…. six out of the ten New York City wedding photographers were featured on Style Me Pretty one of New York City’s premier wedding blogs!
