I absolutely love birthdays.  Sweet 16’s are even extra special.  It’s not every day that a girl gets to play dress up and wear a beautiful gown and tiara and dance the night away.  Last month I got to photograph Melissa’s Sweet 16 at Verdi’s of Westbury in Long Island, NY.  She had a very simple affair but make no mistake it was an extremely fun one.  Melissa’s family and friends certainly loved to party and you can tell from the pics that everyone had a great time.   I was able to get some portraits of Melissa and her family prior to the party and then captured some highlights of the festivities.  Below are some of my favorites from the event.

Till next time,

Irene

New York Boudoir Photos/New York Glamour Session with Lady E

Lady E, a friend of mine recently made the journey from New Jersey  to my home studio in Long Island, NY to take some boudoir photos and glamour shots.  Glamour shots you ask?  Weren’t glamour shots popular back in the 80’s?    Well yeah, and some of you may remember those cheesy hands on the jacket poses and the big colorful feather boas not to mention the big hair.  Anyways, Glamour Photography is making a comeback.  And I don’t mean with those colorful feathers.  I am talking more editorial and magazine, think Cosmo Cover Girl.  Because every woman no matter what age, shape or size wants and deserves to look and feel like a supermodel. More on glamour photography in a future post.  Let’s get back to Lady E.  She arrived ready and willing to have fun.  She brought several outfits to choose from and we mapped out her shoot.  Lady E  is  happy. vibrant,  funny  and knows how to live life to the fullest.  She is a real woman.  She is a wife and a mother and works a 9 to 5  job in the city, so like most women her plate is quite full but she doesn’t use that as an excuse to stop her from embracing the best that life  has to offer.  Lady E is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.  Here are some of her favorite images from the session that she has graciously allowed me to share.

XOXO

New York Boudoir Photographer/Bridal Boudoir

Wedding season is here and that means it’s time for some bridal boudoir photos.  I’d like you to meet the lovely Miss C who I had the pleasure to photograph recently in Long Island, NY.  Ms. C  is getting married at the end of this month and she called me  to get some sexy pictures of herself for her soon to be hubby and for herself.   When she arrived on the day of her shoot she was beaming with excitement.  But once i asked her to see the outfits that she brought so i can map out her shoot, she realized that she forgot her outfits and naturally became very upset.  I offered to reschedule the session since it was already evening time but she was quite adamant about proceeding with the shoot since she already had her hair and make-up done.  It is quite common  for almost everyone to be a bit  tense at the very beginning of the session.  It usually takes an average of about 15 minutes before the client loosens up and the great images start to get produced.  Well  it was no different with Ms. C.  especially since she was naturally very upset about not having all her outfits.  Despite her disappointment, we realized that she had a few items to work with that she brought with her that were in her bag of shoes and I quickly started to have her change into them and we made it WORK!  In no time, she was rocking the shoot and was having a blast.  Sure she didn’t have the matching outfits and lingerie she had packed but I didn’t let that stop me from capturing her beauty and her personality.   And we got some great images.  It just goes to show you that everything does not have to be perfect in order to get great pictures.    Check out some of Ms. C’s favorite images that she has given me permission to share.  Isn’t she beautiful?

Congratulations on your wedding Ms. C.  I am sure that you will make a beautiful bride. I wish you and your husband many years of love and happiness.

XOXO

Long Island, NY Headshots/Gina’s Headshot Session

A couple of weeks ago I received a phone call from Gina who was looking to get some headshots  taken for her soon to be released new book, Blood Ties.  She mentioned to me how she absolutely hated having her picture taken but i quickly reassured her that we would have plenty of time to take several shots for her to choose from.  We had a beautiful day to shoot outdoors by Newbridge Road Park and Gina totally rocked her session.  Here are a few of her favorites from the session and some of mine.  I have read an excerpt from the book and it looks like it’s going to be a great read especially if you are into paranormal romance.  For more on Gina’s book and to stay up to date with the book release, you can follow her here on Twitter .
