From the archives and still one of my favorites. Nicole's Amalfi Coast bridal shower at Liberty House was an absolute dream — blues and yellows, lemons and oranges, a bloom bar, the most gorgeous cake with an Amalfi tile motif, and the Manhattan skyline as the backdrop. Her mom planned every single detail, and it showed in the most beautiful way. And if that wasn't enough, Tim surprised us all by sticking around — we even got to celebrate his birthday too.

The morning of a wedding carries a feeling that stays with you long after the day is over.
A mix of excitement and emotion, quiet pauses in between, and that deep sense that everything is about to change. The smallest choices—the scent you’ll always recognize, the shoes waiting by the chair, the finishing touches you chose so carefully—become part of the memory in ways you don’t realize at the time.

It’s where it all begins, before the vows, before the celebration… just a few fleeting hours that end up meaning everything.

Arianna and Dean’s engagement session in Lavallette was the kind of evening that just felt right from start to finish. Soft golden light, a quiet beach, and two people who are completely at ease with each other—it doesn’t get better than that.
They met in college, have been together for five years, and you can feel that history in the way they interact. Everything is easy, natural, and full of genuine connection. Whether they’re laughing, walking along the shoreline, or just standing close, it all feels like them.
There’s something really special about a couple who truly enjoys the little things together, and that came through in every moment of this session.

Alexandra and Sean’s July wedding at The Madison Hotel was one for the books. Shades of blue, unreal florals, heartfelt speeches, and a dance floor that never slowed down. But more than anything, it was their connection that made the day unforgettable — fun, deep, and completely effortless.
Still smiling from this one. 💙

They’re Engaged!
This proposal at The Highlawn looked effortless, but it was weeks in the making. Thoughtful planning, a quiet gazebo, fog rolling over the skyline, and a moment that felt completely their own.
I just shared the full story on the blog, along with tips on planning a surprise proposal that feels natural, meaningful, and unforced.
Rain or shine, this one was perfect. Check it out!

Twelve already!
Watching Jack step into middle school with confidence, fall even more in love with math, count down the days to baseball season, and cheer on the Bears with his whole heart has been such a joy. This year feels full of growth, big wins, and moments I never want to forget.

Happy 12th Birthday, Jack!
