Hudson Valley Engagement Photography { Rosie and Eric }

It’s been a while since I’ve put an engagement shoot up on the blog.  This one was from a while ago.  This cute couple is rosie and eric, and they were a blast to shoot.  They were just to embark on some major life changes too.  Rosie wanted to be a vet… but here’s the kicker she wanted to go to school out in scottland!  Pretty cool huh?  Yeah so these guys decided to get married in czech republic before they moved all the way out there.

They were a total blast to hang out with, Eric who’s a local barber had some really fun stories to tell about all his interesting clients.  And we just so happened to have perfect light for this day.  And I was able to capture some great images for these guys.  It’s fun when

Hudson Valley Portrait Photographer { Luccia Portraits }

I sure do love doing portraits.  Now these are certainly more on the fashion side of things, but at the end of the day I feel like I am kind of a portrait artist.  I just capture the personality of the person in them, and Luccia is certainly a fashion girl.  Well, when she’s not tuning her subaru.  Luccia, and I always have a blast when we work together.  I’ll never forget the first time I worked with her.  I felt like she was a model who was ‘out of my league’.  She had already worked with so many great photographers, why would she want to work with me?  Since then we’ve worked together a few times, and created some amazing images.  She’s a total blast to work with, and is why I think we can get some great stu

Hudson Valley Portrait Photographer Manda Lee in Stilo Magazine

You know it’s kinda sad, you work so hard on putting together an editorial, and then so many of the images don’t end up making it into your portfolio.  They might be good, but they’re not as great as the other images.  I don’t even usually end up posting them to facebook like I should.  It takes so long for the editorial to come out, and then by the time the editorial comes out, you’re a bit tired of looking at the images.  That and I’ve been really annoyed with facebook lately.  They changed the way that they show followers your images which means that my photography doesn’t get seen by all the people who have liked my page.  It’s frustrating, and seriously depressing.  You work so hard to build a following on

Hudson Valley Photographer { Danielle }

Here’s some images from another shoot I did last summer.  This shoot was a total blast!  This is another local model Danielle.  She was fun to work with, because she’s extremely intelligent, and had interesting things to talk about.  I love working with people that you can actually have a conversation with.  It makes getting great shots so much easier.  Another fun fact, I recently ran into her, and she was all cute and preggers.  Which was totally adorable.

We had perfect light for this shoot, which was great.  I was so happy to get some good golden light for this shoot, because it worked so well with her red hair.  I have to say there’s a special place in my heart for red heads.  Their hair just wo

Collabo Night Hudson Valley Photographer

So I never really got a chance to write up something for these shots.  This shoot was a total, blast, and I got to work with some of my favorite people in the industry around here.  We had a big collaboration night at one of my buddies studio spaces.  It was great getting a ton of creative people together in a room to create some amazing art.  Yes there was a bit of booze involved, but it was all in good fun.  The models that we had on set that night were fantastic.  This first one is Manda, and she’s one of my all time favorites, everytime we work together we end up getting some great work together.  We even had some ruckus apparel to use for this shoot, which was fun, and those guys are pretty awesome
