I am so excited about the launch of my blog! So I thought it was appropriate to mention in my first posting, some great news. The cover of Newport Life Wedding Magazine, which just hit the stands, is my photograph! The shot features an amazing couple Bryce & Amanda Appelbaum. Shot on location at Belle Mer, here in Newport, R.I. All I can say about the day, it was a photographer's dream come true. The people, venue, decor, flowers, lighting, every last detail was gorgeous. There was a fabulous shot at every turn:) I have to make special mention of the dress. Amanda's dress was exquisite. It was flawless from every angle. Amy Michelson is the dress designer, to answer your next question:)
But most importantly, what made this shot work was Amanda & Bryce, just being themselves. Their implicit trust in my abilities to capture their wedding, was evident in every frame I shot. Their love and devotion to each other was so apparent, I just documented what was right in front of my lens. It made it easy for me to blend into the atmosphere of their wedding. It was truly a magical day on all fronts. The best part, I made new friends.

P.S. I wanted to give a big shout out to Bryce and all of his groomsmen. You and your gang were so much fun to photograph. I appreciated all of your high spirited energy. It was hilarious. "I'm still watching you Joe:)"
