I'm a stylist : ) Headshots for business and fun (Tel Aviv, Israel)
- It evolved. At first I would email people just a few styling guidelines before the shoot. You know - wear dark colors, blow dry your hair, etc. Then it started changing. Perhaps the biggest contribution was from my friend Maria who started her own full service style agency, Stilista - Boston. Throug[...]
Central Park Engagement Shoot: Yvette & Greg
- There is something really special about Yvette and Greg's connection. It warmed me up as I was shooting them on a cold cold winter day in Central Park around Columbus Circle - the location of choice for shoots on my visit in NY this December. While I try not to be in New York in the winters, I fly b[...]
Wedding of Rinat & Uri - Agadat Deshe, Israel
- As some of you remember, Rinat and Uri are a sentimental couple for me because they are my first wedding that I shot in Israel. I have to say that as exciting as it was to shoot it, I can't say that it different that much from a Jewish wedding that I'd shoot in America. Rinat and Uri did a "first lo[...]

Wedding of Alyia & Max (Kaaterskill Inn in Catskill NY)
- Alyia and Max have been together since age, like, 11. OK, maybe 16 or so, but it's been a long time. Their wedding was very emotional with lots of tears. The venue was the amazing Kaaterskill Inn in Catskill NY and it suited them perfectly. (Super exciting for me because this was my second time shoo[...]
The soft colors of maternity, a shoot (Coney Island, Brooklyn)
MYTH: In order to get a great background in a photograph you need to be either in a fancy or shabby-chic apartment, or outside surrounded by exotic flowers and fields of daisies. FACT: You don't.
Actually all you need is the following:
- great lighting (can be natural light)
- including what you[...]
My style of family photography (Boston, MA)
I've been documenting Maria's family for a number of years now. Here is family photography the way I like to see it. I like to convey the mood more anything. But I feel that the advantage of having a manual fast camera gives me the amazing opportunity of freezing a moment that happens naturally. [...]
Wedding of Aimee and Danny (Temple Torah, Little Neck NY)
This wedding of Aimee and Danny was shot by one of my amazing photographers. I know the couple pretty well, and the groom's family for a number of years. As I was processing the photos, I teared up not a few times. I think he did an amazing job, and I'll just let the photos speak for themselves.

When a Batmizvah girl needs a little shoot
We decided to photograph Karin (whose just had her Batmitzvah) in Yaffo. The stone walls, the sea, and the exotic plants all contributed to some very fun backgrounds. Here is Karin sitting on the beach. I stood over her and opened my aperture to a 1.4 in this picture, focusing just on Karin's ama[...]

Feel free to b[...]
Sister's family in New York

Incidentally, I'm also trying out my brand [...]
