Wedding: Michelle and Glenn

Alex — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:28:12 +0000

Michelle and Glenn had a beautiful fall wedding. The weather did not turn out quite as we expected and hoped, but cleared up during the ceremony. We were able to go outside afterwards and get some great outdoor shots! Congratulations! We wish you the best of luck in your new endeavors.

LBI Family Portraits

Alex — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 00:06:18 +0000

Alex and I were headed down to Long Beach Island to take these family portraits when the sky opened up and we were stuck in a massive thunderstorm, complete with flooding and power outages. I was sad to have to call and cancel the photos. Since the family was down at their beach house for the week, we were on a tight schedule to try again. Although Alex was unavailable for the following day, I was able to do it. The next day the weather was 100% cooperative and the pictures were exactly what I was hoping for.

Wedding Day: Susie and Justin

Alex — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 01:46:34 +0000

You may recognize Justin and Susie from their “Christmas” engagement photos. Well, the time came, and now they are husband and wife. Justin and Susie had their reception at a beautiful country club. You can see that we really had a great time using a golf theme for their wedding portraits. I must admit that one of my favorite parts of the day was riding around in a golf cart! (yes, they let us drive one.) after spending the day with them, I can honestly say that they are absolutely perfect for each other. They were a lot of fun to work with. We are sad to say that after the wedding, they moved out of state. We would like to wish them the best of luck in their new endeavor and all the happiness in the world in their new marriage.

Wedding Day: Alina and Mark

Alex — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 02:04:21 +0000

Four and a half years ago a nice girl named Alina met a nice boy named Mark. It was easy for Alina to fall in love with Mark because he was tall, good looking, and had a nice car. Mark easily fell in love with Alina because she was tall, good looking and was many years younger than him. Together they were the perfect couple. Mark and Alina shared many adventures together throughout the years. They’ve loved traveling to exotic places like Italy, Montréal, and Brighton Beach. They’ve gotten to know each others families and still stuck around. The most important contribution they have made together is raise a small black pug named Oscar, who is miraculously still alive. Oscar takes after his father because he is quiet, snores, and has a lot of body hair, and takes after his mother because he sleeps 14 hours a day, is obsessed with food and loves shoes.Mark is interested in real estate development and enjoys buying dilapidated homes and turning them into palaces, Alina supports his ventures because she gets to pick out the fixtures and paint colors for the homes and considers herself a vital contributor to the project. Mark is known for his thoughtfulness which can be illustrated by his diamond earring birthday gift to Alina who did not have her ears pierced. Alina is known for being very supportive of individuality and only makes Mark match his wardrobe to hers two to three times a week. They can often be seen wearing the same bright orange crocs on their way down to Deal on the Jersey Shore, Alina’s home town. Mark and Alina tell people they go to the Shore because they love the ocean but what they really mean is they go for the food; ice cream and hot dogs (in that order). Together they also love music, whether it be flamenco guitar, Italian love songs or classic rock and enjoy ballroom dancing together.Mark has always maintained an air of knowledge and strength which has balanced Alina’s spontaneous creativity. His consistent stability and quiet power have been the inspiration for her passion and imagination. Together they have grown up, developed a deep respect for one another and have developed a vision for a loving home for their future. Mark and Alina have always been there for one another emotionally through all of lifes ups and downs and never wavered in their love and complete commitment to one another even through the hardest of times. Together they share their love of Judaism, great food, excellent music, and overall dedication to their family and each other.

Alina and Mark’s wedding was spectacular. We had a lot of fun. They were one of the most fun couples we have ever worked with. We wish them a happy, healthy life together.

John’s First Communion

Alex — Fri, 29 May 2009 20:53:41 +0000

It was certainly Communion month for us! As you may notice from these pictures, John’s Communion was at the same hall as Erin’s Communion. Neat coincidence huh? This week was much cooler and was unfortunately raining, but that didn’t stop any of the fun inside! It was a great day of family, friends, food, music and even back flips. Don’t forget it was filled with pictures as well! Here are our best shots of the day…

Our Moment with Laura and Keith

Alex — Thu, 28 May 2009 01:21:16 +0000

For a change of pace, we let Laura and Keith write up their own blog…

“Would you believe this couple met in a gas station??? Yep, its true…and almost 20 years later we still love to tell our funny story. We’ve been married for 6 years and had the opportunity with Heather and Alex this year to relive getting back in a wedding dress and suit and have photos done. Along with a few family members, we took shots in our own yard and then went to a local lake which provided some of the cool backgrounds you can see in these shots – the lake, the “rockin’” boat, and the rickety old wood bridge that gave us 2 of our favorite pics.

I was already impressed with their work I had seen but I never imagined our shots to be as incredible as they were. Not only are these photos great from a technical standpoint, they capture who Keith and I really are and we now have photos that blow our original wedding pics away!

Working with Alex and Heather was a relaxed, fun experience. They work very well together, not your typical “pose and shoot” style. You can be yourself and between the two of them they will capture moments and expressions and then put together a collage of photos that will tell your story.

Can’t wait for the next experience! We love you guys…

Laura and Keith – 2009″

We love you guys too!

Happy Easter!

We would like to wish everyone a very happy and healthy Easter! Enjoy the chocolate bunnies and peeps…because we know we will. Thanks Mom for the Easter eggs.

Happy Birthday Reagan!

Alex — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 03:01:16 +0000

April seems to be a very big birthday month for us. Our friends, Nick and Carrie, threw a party for their daughter Reagan last Sunday for her 3rd birthday. We don’t get to see them much and were shocked to see how much Reagan has grown up. Happy birthday Reagan!

Happy Birthday Heather!

Alex — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 05:03:39 +0000

Heather turns 25 this year so we decided to throw a nice “Quarter of a Century” for her. Since her birthday was on Easter Sunday this year, and we will be away, we decided to throw it last Saturday. Between the yummy Filipino food, Guitar Hero World Tour, and all of our friends there, we had a blast!

Heather, I just want to say how happy I am to be married to you and wish you many more birthdays so we can grow old together. Love you Sweetie! Mow.
