One of my favorite 2007 weddings, Rachel & Chris, is featured in this issue of The Knot, New York.   I photographed the wedding at the Vanderbilt Mansion in upstate New York with amazing wedding/fashion photographer Curt Littlecott.  Both feature and wedding slide show are available online.

Keisha and Troy's rehearsal dinner was full of stylish decor, great food, Cuban - yes Cuban - cigars, yummy cocktails and lots of dancing.  Kudos to the bride and her event coordinators because they completely overhauled the restaurant with the impeccable decor.  A great night that definitely set the stage for the destination wedding weekend. 

Enjoy the images!

Above is a photograph of me taking an environmental "scene setter' image from the roof of the Ritz.  If it wasn't for their amazing coordinator, Melinda Easley, I would have never got the shot.

Incredible venue, perfect weather, exotic location, kind family & friends and amazing clients - what more can a photographer ask for? 

Keisha and Troy's wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Grand Cayman was full of style and elegance.  The couple and their event coordinators Melinda Easley and  Bernadette Williams did a sensational job.  Keisha was a beautiful bride, so regal and full of grace.  As for Troy, you just have to meet him - one of the most charismatic, intelligent, sharp, and fun to photograph people.

Enjoy the slide show!
