Wedding Photos 5
Some of you asked to see the wedding photos on here from last September and so here they are!
As you could probably guess if you follow this blog regularly, Sara and I are both very into Art Deco and the Chrysler Building Lobby was what gave us our inspiration for the feel of the wedding, which was a modern, 1920s deco nightclub feel. You'll notice that the design on the placecards is from the inner entrance to the building. The decor was created by the incredible Mark Rose and the lighting was done by Sara's young wunderkind cousin Harrison Lippman.

Wedding photography is probably the most difficult photography job out there besides war photography, although it's close. :) I have the utmost respect for what wedding photographers have to go through on a daily basis and going through one from the other side really taught me a lot.
There are a lot of fantastic wedding photographers out there, particularly in New York. There are a lot of fantastic websites with so many amazing photos that it be a nightmare to choose.
But what I found out is that the most important factor is finding the person that you feel most comfortable hanging out with for the entire day of one of the most important days of your life.
Think about it, if you're not comfortable hanging out with your wedding photographer and being relaxed around them then how are they going to get any good photos of you? You want someone who you like, who is comfortable and enjoyable to be around, who is funny and who makes you feel most at ease.
My three keys to finding our wedding photographer was their portfolio, their demeanor in person, and how promptly they responded to emails (that last one is important).
We were lucky enough to find the uber talented New York Wedding Photographer, JB Reed. After meeting with a few wedding photographers with fantastic portfolios but slightly offputting demeanors it was obvious right away over a cup of coffee that he was going to be fun to work with.
So when you pick a wedding photographer, make sure to grab a cup of coffee with them. And hire JB Reed, he truly is fantastic.
Best day of my life.

POV Magazine - The Streets 0
There is a new online magazine out called POV (Passing Out Victorious), created by the fantastic Chris Pilkington and Ben Turner. The plan is to base each issue around a common theme and bring together writers, poets, artists and photographers to contribute works on the theme. It's a wonderful idea and the end product is both extremely interesting and well done.
For the inaugural issue they decided on the theme of the Streets, something that you all know I am passionate about and so when they contacted me to submit some of my photographs I was very pleased.
My photos are from pages 10 to 29, but if you're reading this blog then I'm sure you're already familiar with the ones I submitted. Instead, take some time to check out the works of the other artists, photographers and writers on the subject.
Click here to view the first issue.

Power, 5th Avenue 5
1/320th at F9, ISO 1600 (28mm).
Some of the most famous street photographs of all time have been of children. There's just something so interesting that you can see about human nature by looking into the eyes of child.
Nurture plays a huge role in development of course, but I think our personalities are primarily formed at birth and only enhanced as we get older.
Just a quick glimpse into this girl's eyes shows such strength and power.
This reminds me of another street portrait I took at Rucker Park, a famous New York basketball court, about 8 years ago. Wow, was it really that long ago?
