Wedding: Cydny & Marc (Paterson NJ, Backyard and Art Factory)
- I fell in love with a little creation named "Tucker" while shooting this wedding. It was his scraggly look that stole my heart, along with his absolute dedication for the groom. But let's get back to the beginning of the wedding, actually before it started. Cydny (whose engagement session I sho[...]
Cydny and Marc - Engagement Session

Why imperfect pictures are awesome.
- Meet Simon the baby. I totally melt when I see him... how could you not? I knew David and Maya when they were still young and dating... wait, they are still really young. They are definitely one of my favorite families. Here is why I love slightly imperfect pictures. They convey a mood tha[...]
Why I sometimes make my clients freeze : )
- Portraits and headshots come in one big clump for me. One needs the other. And I love them both.

My cousin
- My sweet little cousin. I didn't know the extent of my love for you until I lost you. I took this picture of you while we were on a family trip together in Moscow in 2006 and I remember this moment clearly. You resisted, as most of my family members do; asked "why are you taking pictures of me"? [...]
How about a horse-drawn carriage to deliver the bride to the altar.
- Israel has lots of weddings. Like LOTS. Some are just truly spectacular, with horse-drawn carriages that drive the bride to the altar (note: these are VERY rare). Here is one such amazing wedding of Jacob and Faina that I attended in the summer in White Halo in Magshimim, Israel. I think the photos [...]
