Wedding Video Teaser

Just a short video I shot at a wedding this last weekend in D.C.
Let me know what you all think!

You can see the HD version here (ps. It's much nicer and you should watch it full screen!).

Big Announcements Coming Soon!

It's been a busy Summer!

Bridal Fashion Weeks...

As some of you know, bridal fashion week took place last week and I, thinking it only took place once a year, -never did it occur to me that bridal fashion is just as crazy and busy as haute couture fashion- just decided to take my time in posting some images from the fashion shows I shot last winter... To tell the truth I don't know when I planned on posting them, however I didn't think it would take a whole season for that to happen...
A self imposed guilt trip took over me, and so here I am, finally posting!
The way I see it though, these dresses looked good then (although I did include some crazy ones) and still look good today. And maybe, just maybe, you can, if you like them, find them in the boutique's sales rack!

My favorite show was the Monique Lhullier, but it was brutal trying to get in, and then it got even worse trying to find a good spot to set up your "pod" and shoot!!

Speaking of fashion, I heard that Ubah, a model that Victor and I had shot a while back, was all over the Paris Runways a month ago! I remember having a great time shooting her and I am not surprised of her success!

Umm... that's me with a wig that Ubah thought I needed...

I decided to take a quick look through that shoot and found this image, that somehow had been overlooked... Let me know what you guys think!

On a totally unrelated subject I found this little video on youtube...





Now, if you know me I'm the biggest Mac fan, and I own five (anyone want to buy a white dual 2.0 Macbook?) but I have to admit I love this ad... especially the part where she says "I'm not cool enough to own a Mac"! Microsoft is finally doing something right!

And here is a new Mac commercial...




Unfortunately, it's not a real ad but it's pretty funny!

What do you guys think of what may be my new logo (the one that is in all my pics)? It's not definite yet, but when was trying to figure out a way to put my name on the images I came up with this. Let me know what you all think!

The Signs say it all...

New Orleans.

What can I say?

My recent trip there gave me unforgettable memories. I feel so lucky.
The city's life, it's people, it's happiness, excitement, music and most importantly, it's mystery and history created a need in me to explore it without end...

-And how lucky am I that I had the opportunity to explore it with my best friends?
V&E, VT, GV I miss you guys!
Who knows when we will all see each other together again, but as Kerouac once wiely said "we're still great friends, but we have to go through later phases of our lives"

-----

The last image was from a local photographer's gallery opening whose show was entitled "secrets".
People would anonymously write down their never told secrets on a paper napkin with only the time as a constant.

-I'm sorry that you had to point this one out to me baby.-



It seems like I am late to celebrate important milestones or holidays... this is my 101 post!

Valentine's Day...

I suppose I am a bit late in in wishing you all a happy Valentine's day, so can I say I hope you all had a great Valentine's day?!

---------

I wanted to share two of my favorite images taken from an engagement shoot from last year, and a very interesting video made especially for Valentine's day...
Enjoy!

I am excited about 2009 and all the possibilities it will bring.
As Hunter S. Thompson once said, all we have to do is get into "the proper spirit of the thing"!

Published...Fashion Spread!

This has been quite a month...
And to add to the good news, the environmental fashion shoot Victor Affaro and I shot some months ago was finally published in a high-end Brazilian Fashion/Architectural publication (sort of the Wallpaper of Brazil)!






I have to say that the team we had was pretty amazing!
Celia Howlson-Hall -Art Direction
Lindsey Hornyak -Stylist
Georgi Sahdev -Makeup
Anthony Campbell -Hair

Detail shoot at Cipriani

Everytime I see a room planned and decorated by Michelle Rago I am impressed (she is one of New York's top event planners after all) ... but last week when I went in to Cipriani 42nd street to shoot the details for her event I was floored.

Michelle!

Brooklyn Bridge...

I've been on assignment for a Brazilian magazine this whole week, and yesterday I shot this really beautiful panoramic at the Brooklyn Promenade...



I've been in NY for about 10 years now...
I get nostalgic.
I can't get used to the city skyline without the towers.
Today I thought about them.
Two souls. One needing the other.
Like life.

Life needs for some humor as well:


NYC is about dreaming big...
And companionship.

Featured.... {Brides NY}

The wedding I shot for Gabby and Jeff is a featured wedding in the current issue of Brides NY!


Here are a few more favorites from that wedding:
