Long Island Sweet 16 Photographer\/Melissa’s Sweet 16<\/strong><\/p>\n

I absolutely love birthdays. \u00a0Sweet 16’s are even extra special. \u00a0It’s not every day that a girl gets to play dress up and wear a beautiful gown and tiara and dance the night away. \u00a0Last month I got to photograph Melissa’s Sweet 16 at Verdi’s of Westbury<\/a> in Long Island, NY. \u00a0She had a very simple affair but make no mistake it was an extremely fun one. \u00a0Melissa’s family and friends certainly loved to party and you can tell from the pics that everyone had a great time. \u00a0 I was able to get some portraits of Melissa and her family prior to the party and then captured some highlights of the festivities. \u00a0Below are some of my favorites from the event.<\/p>\n

Till next time,<\/p>\n
