Erin & Gino | Wedding

I had the great pleasure of shooting Erin & Gino’s wedding a few weeks ago over at Amarante’s Sea Cliff in New Haven, CT.  We started off down in Norwalk for the ceremony and then headed down to New Haven later in the day – stopping off at the Lighthouse Point Park.

This guy always had an awesome smile for me… I couldn’t sneak up on him.

I was totally digging the brown pinstripes… Gino is a graphic designer (He’s good with color).

Just to show how cool Erin & Gino are… they had custom made cufflinks for all the groomsmen that related to their favorite comics or video games.  (P.S. “Popeye RULEZ”)

We also had two newborns that were only week(s) old.  Couldn’t help but sneak a few shots of them too!

It was a little windy at Lighthouse Point but we had some great light and found just the right spot after a short walk:)

I had to bust out the Polaroid here… couldn’t resist.  I have to say.. not too bad for on camera flash:)

I actually went to high school with Gino and a few of his groomsmen as well (hence the gratuitous photos coming up soon.)  I also went to High School with Steve Fernino of Music in Motion who did a fantastic job with the uplighting in this place…. it really kicked up my reception photos!

And now for the gratuitous photos…  Who can resist shooting their high school buddies with a 14mm? Not me.

Congrats Erin & Gino.  I’m honored that you included me in your big day and I can’t wait to hear all about Disney World!

Awesome work Jim! I love this set of images and the video, and you did a great job fusing it all together.

Jim - March 23, 2010 - 1:26 pm

Thanks! As you can see we didn’t quite make it down to the High Line but no complaining here… Central Park was awesome and we had a great sunset.

Lindsey & Jamie | Engagement | Part Two

As promised, here’s part two of Lindsey & Jamie’s Engagement Session in Central Park, NYC!

After all this hard work we headed over to Big Nick’s Burger and Pizza joint and they treated me to a pretty mean burger.
If you’re in the area check Big Nick out… it’s worth the trip.

Lindsey & Jamie | Engagement | Part One

I had the awesome pleasure of meeting up with Lindsey and Jamie in central park yesterday.
We couldn’t have had a nicer day to be shooting and hanging out outside.

I love the pairing of Lindsey and Jamie, the split tree and the two towers here.

More to come! I just couldn’t wait to get a few of these up for now!

Awesome stuff Jim.

Erin & Gino | Engagement

I spent a cold and windy afternoon on Main Street in Westport, CT a few weeks ago but it was well worth it.  Erin & Gino are getting married this spring so we snuck out in between snow storms and found some great spots in downtown Westport to hide from the wind and snap a few engagement shots.  Gino proposed down by the library so we started there and worked our way up Main Street.


I think Gino would look good with this hairdo…
I can’t wait to shoot their wedding! See you in a few short weeks Erin & Gino!
I admit I did sneak over to Crumb’s Bakery after our shoot to test out their chocolate chip cookies.  I’m very particular when it comes to chocolate chip cookies. Not bad but I’d stick to their delicously huge cupcakes if you happen to find yourself there.

HIEN & MATTHEW | VILLA CAPRI | WEDDING

I had the pleasure of shooting Hien & Matthew’s Wedding a while back with Graham Scobey.
We met up in North Haven for the ceremony where I found some nice floral work and a few really cute kids.I really loved this old organ they had at the church.
Alright… I can’t resist the cute kids…. there was actually a bride at this wedding too…
After the ceremony we headed over to a park in the center of town and got a few great shots of the wedding party.
Then we got to the reception.  Everyone was enjoying themselves and having a lot of fun… but no one was dancing…
It might have been the 6 or 7 course traditional meal they served that delayed the dancing…
but all of a sudden there was some M.J. played and the party really got started.  Even Grandpa was busting out his moves!

Thanks again to the talented Graham Scobey for being so great to work with and having me assist him on this wedding shoot.
