Chic and beautiful boudoir portraits ~ New York boudoir photographer

It was a blast photographing this gorgeous bride’s boudoir portraits who is getting married in a few weeks on an exotic island. She was fun, enthusiastic and very excited about her portraits. She creatively put together her wardrobe for the session and picked a variety of outfits that were fun, sexy, modern and really complimented her. Here are a few shots and the rest are for “his eyes only”….

Battery Gardens wedding in Battery Park, NYC

John and Kay exchanged vows, rings and laughter in the beautiful historic church of the Shrine of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton in lower Manhattan.  After the ceremony the couple and their guests walked across the street to Battery Gardens where the reception was held.  The view from Battery Gardens is gorgeous and the guests enjoyed seeing Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan.  One of the highlights of dinner was handmade fresh pasta made to order with customized toppings and ingredients.  An Irish folk band kept the couple and their guests dancing.

Max and Ru’s wedding party – Long Island wedding reception

Max and Ru exchanged vows a few months ago in New York City.

Now they celebrated their wedding and marriage with friends and family from all over the world. Both Max and Ru are super talented artists in New York City who do illustrations, animations and design. Ru’s parents flew in from Japan to celebrate the joyous occasion at Max’s parents’ house on Long Island.

This was a 3-D illustration that Ru and Max created and used as their cards.

Orchids in the New York Botanical Garden NYC

Every year the New York Botanical Garden hosts a very special exhibition, the Orchid show.
It features thousands of beautiful orchids from dozens of different species. The colors, shapes and details of these flowers are just amazing.

Here are some of the images I took at the show.  (I also sneaked in a fern because ferns are just so cool!)
