Danielle & Neil 10.9.10

More than 39.000 people got married on 10.10.10, but my brides are different from the rest!

Danielle and Neil tied the knot on Oct. 9 at Old School Square in Delray Beach. The weather couldn't have been more beautiful for these two lovebirds and it was perfect for their outdoor wedding.

The reception was held inside the gym and the details were unbelievable. This DIY Bride worked tirelessly on the cake, fans and favors and her efforts really paid off. The lighting was gorgeous as it came through the glass windows onto the gym floor.

I was so honored to capture their wedding day, alongside my good friend Liz Galan and Emily Toalson. At only 16 years of age, Emily has some amazing potential and she was excited to shoot her first wedding.

Congrats on your special day, Mr. & Mrs. Catapano!

Taskeen + Noel

"Found you there, tucked away like a secret letter in smiles of new days and bright thoughts." - Excerpt from True Love by Noel Pagany

Taskeen and Noel are such a sweet couple. Noel is a published poet and he can make any girl swoon with his words alone. Taskeen is a sweetheart and she looked amazing in all of her saris the day of the wedding. She was just glowing.

All of their traditions made for a beautiful and colorful weekend event. I loved photographing every single minute of it. Congrats to both of you and wish you all the best on your new life together in Chicago. Thank you for letting me be part of your special day.

Here is a video slideshow. Enjoy!

Mr. & Mrs. ~ The Anonymous Couple

When I first decided to do photography, I purchased a D70s and went down to Vizcaya in Miami. I happened to run into a beautiful couple who were having their photographs taken and I figured I'd take a few shots myself.

I'm sad to say I never got their names, but I did get some fabulous shots. I only wish I could have found a way to share these with them. I guess I was too chicken to ask. Here I am, don't really know how to work my camera and yes, I dropped my lens. I about died right then and there. Who was I to offer my photos when obviously they were already going to get amazing photos from their photographer?? It's been almost 4 years since I took these, but they still make me smile. In any case, I thank them for allowing me to capture their love. They really inspired me to keep at it.

I wish the Anonymous Mr. & Mrs. all the best, wherever they might be.
