Kelly & Ben - Engagement

Over 70 years ago a couple met, fell in love and lived happily ever after. Today their grandson hopes to do the same with his fiance, Kelly. It was so cool walking through Prospect Park in Brooklyn, tracing the footsteps of Ben's paternal grandparents. Below is a moment frozen in time from two very different generations but one thing is very clear, there is truly love in these moments. Can't wait for the wedding, thanks for sharing a bit of your history with me!

Alecia & Jacob - New York's City Hall

Today I took my lunch to congratulate Alecia & Jacob moments after they said "I do". When Alecia came to me to ask if I would sneak downtown for a few minutes to capture their wedding day I was so touched. It was such a special afternoon, it even moved the clouds. One moment it was gloomy and raining and the next a beautiful afternoon. Congratulations to the two of you! Cheers to many cloud moving afternoons!

Janice & Tim - Chesapeake Bay Wedding

As some of you might have guessed by the last name this couple may be related to me. Tim is my oldest cousin and the first boy to marry of our generation making Janice the first new Mrs. Clayton in my lifetime. I was so honored and touched that they wanted me of all people to capture their day. It might have rained harder than it had rained all summer but that didn't get these two down, they were all smiles [and kisses]. Together with their families they not only exchanged rings but hearts on this rainy summer day. It was perfect to say the least! Congratulations to Janice and Tim and welcome to the family Mrs. Clayton, I am so excited to be able to call you my cousin!
