Rescue Ink

Last night I found myself at the Auto Show at the Javits Center. The very first person I saw was Justin Green whose wedding I shot 2 years ago. He was all excited because he had invited the guys from Rescue Inc. Of course silly me had no idea who he was talking about but it did not take me long to figure it out. There mingling with the socialites were these big biker guys with lots of tattoos! Anyone who knows me well knows that I am fascinated by them so I had to go talk to the guys.
So if you are like me and don't watch too much TV it seems they have a show and are famous. But actually before the show they had decided to go rescue animals in bad situations. Now it is reality TV.
Johnny O explained what they do then showed me his latest tattoo. He thought about taking off his shirt to show me more on his back but I think I may have fainted so luckily he didn't. All the guys were only too happy to have me take their photo. They have a website www.rescueink.org GOOD LUCK GUYS!!! It was fun meeting you all

Daily News

A few weeks ago Sarah Yang called me to tell me that the Daily News was starting a page on weddings and she asked me if any if I had any great couples who would share their story with her. Emily and Ventura jumped to mind. Their wedding last fall was so much fun. With the help of James Abel from James Abel Events they had a really fabulous day that started with a walk in Central Park

Hey Is That Paul McCartney?

A few weeks ago I was at the right place at the wrong moment or maybe not! I was photographing the American School of Ballet at Lincoln Center and had just asked my favorite couple Al Roker and his beautiful wife Deborah Roberts if I could take a photo. No sooner had I finished I felt a breeze behind me and without thinking I turned to photograph the person behind me running down the stairs. I caught sight of the shoes and snapped a shot and then the fleeing person was gone......... Suddenly I realised who it was!

Mia de Kuijper tells it as it is, and everyone is listening

Yesterday afternoon at 4 pm Mia called me to see if I could come and take a photo of her as she introduced her book Profit Power Economics at an informal gathering at ING hosted by The Netherland-America Foundation. I was only too happy to pack up my camera and run up town. As always this glamourous woman captivated everyone present. Her talk was fun and informative and sparked some great questions from the audience after it had finished.
Mia , who lives between NY, London, the Netherlands and Southampton with her husband and 2 sons is always on the go. I met her when she asked me to photograph her wedding and it has been great to watch her and her family grow. To find out more about Mia you can visit her website at www.profitpowereconomics.com

Spring has really sprung

I am so excited I can hardly stand it. Today I took my first photo of spring. I can taste it in the air.

Alec Baldwin at the Philharmonic

Sometimes it is just a matter of luck as to whether or not I get the shot I want or need. Last week was a perfect example. Alec Baldwin was fresh back from the Oscar's and the last thing he wanted was another camera in his face so I waited and watched and took my time and then with a big smile and the help of my friend Eric I asked for just one shot. He turned and lent towards me and nearly true to my word I clicked the camera twice. As he walked away the other photographers in the room ran to ask him the same little question but he raised his had and politely refused them all. So many thanks Mr Baldwin. You made my night. xoxox

Erin and Bill

Last night Erin and Bill came over to visit me in the studio and to talk about their wedding in Mexico in June. Just back from a trip to visit the location and make the arrangements, the 2 of them were glowing.
Never able to let the moment pass me by I took out my camera and snapped a few shots. I can not wait for the warm sun and the beach. Mexico here we come!
