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.

Fernanda Floret and her husband Mauro came to New York from Brazil for a new year’s vacation. They’ve been married for two years but have loved the idea of the engagement shoot. “Why can’t a married couple have shots like this?” she asked. Well the answer of course was yes.  On one of the coldest days this winter (so far!) we traveled the city and shot in Central Park, Times Square and the Brooklyn Bridge. That’s a lot of ground to cover so we finished with a great Brooklyn Pizza. Fernanda has a wedding blog back home, Vestida de Noiva and has seen tons of photos. I’m very flattered she chose me for the shoot.
