massacusetts camp wedding: film trailer

It was so great to have Yasu by my side on August 30th to film Kathleen + Dave's summertime Camp Kinderland wedding and I am excited to share the little trailer sneak peek that I've put together!

Sarah and Zach are a candid / journalistic photographer's dream as they were truly mainly interested in their day being captured just as it was and them being captured as they were. In the now world of Pinterest boards, this can certainly be refreshing. While I was not physically there at their India House Club NYC wedding, I am certainly feeling like I was there in being editor of my associate photographer's pictures and Yasu's lovely video footage. They are a beautiful couple with an incredible presence and to just enjoy their wedding day while being themselves, that is what it is all about.

Such a big congratulations to Sarah + Zach!

Yasu joined my photographer team Natalie + Rachael at the late September CT winery wedding of the supersweet Catherine + Kevin, and this is a little taste of their film!

beimaged best of 2012

Even though I am a bit late to be officially ringing in the new year of 2013, I feel like no matter when I do it, I do need to take a step back to reflect on the whirlwind of a year that just ended. I photographed more weddings than I ever thought imagineable, I worked alongside 2 new super talented associate photographers who I adore (Natalie + Rachael) and also worked a ton with Yasuaki, my videographer extraordinaire who ultimately brought me to return quite happily to my video editing roots. I started the year off with a new camera, experimented all year-long with new types of lenses, met and worked with so very many amazing couples, and overall, I really honed in the how and why I do what I do. It is all about love and human connection really. Since I first began photographing I was always drawn to people and little has changed about that. With weddings, I get to focus on people and all that they have created for one of the most memorable days of their lives. It is a very special role I have to play and while it is a ton of work, I am so in love with doing it. Bringing me + my camera to the streets of Manhattan to backyards of Connecticut to campgrounds in Massachusetts and to Brooklyn restaurants, there is nothing quite like what I do and there is certainly no one to compare to the unique couples that I have had the opportunity to work with. I know that 2013 has much more in store for me but I am just so thankful with what I have already experienced + in this entry you will find a collection of some of my favorite moments over the past year. Enjoy and stay tuned for this new year's new pretty photographs!

And I of course enjoyed working on all of the films for my couples but here are three that I feel best define the video work Yasu and I did in 2012! --
