Eglise Orthodoxe Roumaine de Paris

I just photographed a wedding at the Orthodox Roumanian church of Paris -I am now processing
all of the wedding photos. I will have a few on the blog by tomorrow but first here is a portrait
of a peaceful priest who beautifully orchestrated the ceremony.
I just love the man's face and expression.
Pere Iulian Nistea seems content ! And it is a rare thing these days.

Paparazzi style Engagement photos in Paris

Paris in the springtime is synonymous with romance in the city of lights.
Here are some photos of Steph and Arif as I shot them unknowingly from a distance in the gardens of Palais Royal. What a great engagement gift for your bride to be, to capture this once in a lifetime moment on film!
The weather was warm, but not too hot. The background atmosphere was natural with plently of colorful flowers and people enjoying the day.
It was my pleasure to be their photographer and I had lot of fun with my 300mm lens, working paparazzi style.

Wedding anniversary

My birthday is on the 17th of May.
I just celebrated it with my wife and child who is growing up so fast. Last year at the same time,
I was photographing the wedding of Michele and Stuart. I just received
this little mail from Michele this morning.
"... We celebrated our first wedding anniversary yesterday and (of course!)
thought of you! Thanks again for taking such incredibly gorgeous photos!
We have gotten so many compliments.
Also wanted to wish you a happy birthday! Thanks for sharing your day with
us..."
What else shall I say! Time Flies indeed. I have a great Job, meet wonderful people
and Do just what I love best - Even my beautiful wife is jealous at times !

wedding photo for Vogue Brides UK

I was looking for wedding images to illustrate an article in Vogue Brides, UK just now.
Here is one of the selected photo, shot in the streets of NYC, right below Great Central Station.

Wedding portrait in Central park south

I just sent a little serie of prints to one of my bride,in New York this morning. I was looking at wedding images that I had not seen for a while, considering that the wedding happened a couple
of years back.
It just brought back tons of beautiful moments to my mind. I love looking at images
and wedding images such as the one above as they convey simple joy & happiness.
I even collect old black and white photos of total strangers "with a twist" that
I find at flee markets. No wonder i became a photographer. Anyway, I just wanted to share this one group portrait taken in park avenue south, lets say only yesterday
even if it was, in fact shot a couple of years back.
I do find those black and white images quite timeless.
