Kathi Littwin Photography bio picture

  • Welcome to my Blog

    I love what I do and I love sharing it with everyone. It's so nice to have a forum where I can post new samples of the wonderful weddings, events and portraits that come my way. It's also a great place to let you in on some of my favorite vendors.

    I've been shooting weddings and events for over 12 years now. I have been a photographer for more years than I care to say. I was always one of the art kids back in the day and if I could turn a term paper into an art project I did.  The School of Visual Arts actually accepted me as an illustration major but I switched over to photography, preferring the immediacy and storytelling qualities of the medium.

    Please enjoy your visit. I hope to hear from you soon.

Road Trip – PDX to SFO – it’s all about the food

Sunday, June 20, 2010

In May of 2007  Gil & I took a road trip from Los Angeles to San Francisco. He proposed to me on the beach at Half Moon Bay. This May we decided to drive from Portland, OR to San Francisco and see the northern coastal highway. I didn’t shoot everything along the way. Most of the trip I just enjoyed the view and the company, but in a few spots, mostly Portland, I couldn’t resist shooting as if I was on assignment. Highlights include Clyde Common, Pine State Biscuits, Apizza Scholls, all Portland food spots, and along the road, The Bandon Beach Motel, with the most “awesomest” view on the Oregon Coast, Redwoods, Eureka, Ca. and Mendocino. Next time we think we’ll start in Portland and head north, more views and more great food to come.

Maria & Kirk – Engagement Portraits

Tuesday, June 15, 2010

Maria & Kirk celebrated their engagement with a fabulous party at the Mandarin Oriental, Columbus Circle. This gave us a unique opportunity to do some engagement portraits with a more formal touch before the party. The light was perfect and there were so many great spots right outside the door. The wedding is in September and I’m looking forward to sharing those shots as well.

Marcy & Aaron – A Wedding at the Bowery Hotel

Friday, April 2, 2010

Marcy & Aaron had their wedding at The Bowery Hotel. It’s such a cool venue with lots of interesting areas for photos. The place itself has great style so you can keep the decor elements simple if you like. Marcy chose Petal Design Studio for the flowers. They incorporated fruits, nuts and ornamental cabbage into the centerpieces. The personal flowers were lush yet cool. Her dress was an amazing new Oscar de la Renta. I think it was pulled off the runway to be ready in time for her day. Her shoes were very subtle beige Christian Louboutin’s. I’m also happy I got to work with Ellen Kostman and Sidekick Events again. Ellen and her team kept the day running smoothly and I always appreciate their attention to the details.  The music was a mix between DJ Jay McElfresh and the Raggs & the All Stars band. It was a wonderful party with a fabulous couple. I can still feel the love.

Portraits of Himani

Wednesday, March 31, 2010

Himani asked me to shoot her portrait this past weekend. She is a lovely woman and it was a pleasure to work with her. She’s a natural beauty and a bit of a ham. This is only a small sample of our images but I love how her personality shines through. My job is to make the subject feel comfortable enough that I can catch natural moments. I also want them to love how they look in the photos. Himani and I are both very happy with the results.

Bubbles and Buttercream at One Girl Cookies

Thursday, March 4, 2010

One Girl Cookies hosted an event on Tuesday night called Bubbles and Butter cream, which presented “One Girl Cakes by Francina”. These cakes are both delicious and beautiful and make a wonderful addition to all your joyful occasions. All the cakes are three layers and can be made in one, two or three tiers. The flavors we sampled with a little champagne were:

Hazelnut Dulce de Leche

Vanilla Red Velvet Butter cream

Vanilla Bean Passion Fruit (my favorite!)

Chocolate Mocha

Lemon Raspberry

The store was decorated with some Kathi Littwin photos, flowers by Blossom and Branch and Calligraphy by Love*Jenna and a sweet evening was had by all.
