Summer in New York never came! It's already turning cool and my pasty skin never got a chance to cook up some heat for the winter.

I have a heaping handful of shoots I want to blog about, but I felt like posting this one as I'm listening to the John Coltrane record Josh just gave me. :) I now know I've never listened to real jazz before...


Andy would call himself a drifter and I met him at the Rabbit Hole (cafe around my corner) on his NY circuit back to New Orleans. He was laughing boisterously loudly from a table away which was hard not to catch onto, despite the fact I didn't know him or what was funny. He became a Rabbit Hole regular I always counted on seeing when getting coffee (and taking a break from editing!) We shot these photos at Coney Island a few days before he drove back to New Orleans. Thanks to Jaimie for lighting for us.

Diana and Danny eloped to Paris a year ago, and despite a fantastic time, a giant pro-communist rally overwhelmed the streets and prevented much mobility -- it even made them almost 2 hours late for their ceremony. (Despite the rally chaos, their awesome photographer, David Pullum, also the organizer for the Floshops conference I attended in London earlier this year, delivered a beautiful body of work.)

I was excited when they contacted me for a year-later photo session -- this time, New York-style. So with bubbles, high heels, and photo gear in tow, we sauntered around the park near the Brooklyn Museum until after dark.

Had a beautiful night Thursday checking out The Highline and Chelsea with Joanna and Mike. We even got a purple sky at the end of the night.

here are a few snaps from a fun wedding i shot with john mazlish a couple weeks ago!

Tribeca Rooftop, NYC

Randi and Jared were a total blast to photograph -- so in love and so expressive about it. We even got a lucky break from all the summer rain spells, so we had time to hit the streets for some Tribeca fun. :)
