Imtiyaz & Samiha

I had the wonderful pleasure of being presented with an opportunity to shoot Imtiyaz & Samiha's Wedding in Orlando, FL.

Even though I had never met the couple prior to the wedding (since i live in NY and they are in FL), we had spoken quite a bit over the phone to make sure both of them had a good idea of exactly how I will be going about shooting on their wedding day. Managing customer expectations is key for me because I want to make sure I not only meet my customer's expectations, but i exceed them. After seeing the final pictures, the smiles on their faces was my reward that I had exceeded their expectations.

This is truly why i love my job. I not only get to be part of one of the happiest days in a couple's life but i get to freeze those moments and capture them as artistically as possible so they can treasure them for the rest of their lives.

Shalhoub Family Shoot

It was supposed to be a nice comfortable Saturday morning at a local waterfront location for my shoot with the Shalhoub Family. However, mother nature had other plans for us. When we arrived at the location - early at approx. 10am, the temperature was 37 Degrees (F)!!!!! Once our nerves settled (and warmed up in the morning sun!), we were all like "ok, whatever, its cold, but Lets do this!"

The entire family was such a great sport and I think you will agree with me when you see the below images, you can't even tell how cold it was. The location had an old shed on the beach with a boat and i think that really added to the character of the images which we ended up with.

I had such a great pleasure to have an opportunity to shoot this family!
