Michelle & Michael

Before the earthquake and Hurricane Irene, there was the hugh rain event of 8/14/11 which dumped an incredible 10+ inches of rain on LI. The roads were all flooded and it was just miserable outside. Other brides and grooms may have been upset and let it ruin their day, but not MIchelle and Michael. They were determined not to let anything stop them from having the time of their lives at their wedding and they didn't! Despite the weather they had an awesome wedding at The Sephardic Temple.

Lanie and Eric

Lanie and Eric must have been saying their prayers on 7/3011. It was a beautiful day for their wedding. Everything was perfect: Spitz and Peck did a terrific job with the flowers,Temple Avodah looked super, Kombert Caterer's food was exceptional, and Scott Evans Music helped everyone danced the night away. (Of course our photos will always be the catalyst to remember how it all looked and what a great time everyone had!) The only thing that shined more, were the bride and groom.

Same Sex Relationships

With the recent changes in the law,  New York has finally recognized same sex relationships -- congratulations! Here are just two of the countless number of couples that are affected by this historical change.  It was such a pleasure working with both couples as they openly and enthusiastically expressed their love for each other.

Bobbi and the Strays Walk-4-Paws

On Saturday, May 7, 2011, we participated in a great event, run by wonderful  people for a terrific cause -- raising  money to help homeless dogs.  Bobbi & the Strays ran a Walk-4-Paws walkathon at Alley Pond Park  in Queens.  Besides the walk through the woods, there were several vendors there including: ask the vet, paw reading, dog trainer, microchiping, dog neutering, and photographer (us), as well as raffles and prizes and animal blessings.  The weather was perfect, and so was the day!  Everyone (two and four legged) had a great time, hiking,  hanging out with some of the folks from Rescue Ink,  and making new friends.  Check out our Facebook page to see some of the photos from the event.

Alex's Bar Mitzvah

Alex did an amazing job a couple of weeks ago at Temple B'nai Shalom in Rockville Centre at his Bar Mitzvah. He was flawless during the services that evening, and then everyone partied the night away ... non-stop! Check out what a great time everyone had.
