Brooklyn is for Lovers

March 8, 2010 – 4:36 pm

Brooklyn Is For Lovers is a photography project that celebrates the love you have for Brooklyn, for your neighborhood, and for each other.

By the end of the year, Kristina Hill hopes to have photographed one couple in every area of Brooklyn. Each shoot will take place in the spot in their neighborhood that means the most to them, whether it’s the bar they first met, their favorite park bench, or the coffee shop where they relax on Sundays.

Want to get involved? Simply email Kristina on photos[at]kristinahill.com, telling her the place in your neighborhood where you’d most like to be photographed and the reason why.

From the end of March onwards photographs from the project will be on display here on the blog – keep checking back for new neighborhoods!

BAM Wedding Expo – Here Comes the Brooklyn Bride!

March 8, 2010 – 3:48 pm

Yesterday, I had the honor of showing my photography at BAM and Great Performances’ bridal show – Here Comes the Brooklyn Bride. It was such an awesome time! My sister, April, and I worked so hard on getting things ready and I couldn’t be more pleased with how my table turned out. As most of you may know, BAM is an unbelievably beautiful space! I got to meet so many cool brides and got such interest in my Brooklyn Is For Lovers project (stay tuned for more info on that coming later today…) – exciting!

Here’s a peek at my happy little booth:

April designed some really amazing new products – which were a huge hit. Here is a look at some of them!

It was also great to be surrounded by so many creative Brooklyn-based vendors. Fate was kind, as I was randomly placed next to the lovely Keavy, owner of Kumquat Cupcakery. She supplied April and I with delicious little cupcakes to keep our energy up throughout the day – and hands down she makes the best strawberry treat of any kind I’ve ever tasted!

My booth was also across from the beautiful collaborative tablescape by Jillian of 100 Layer Cake, Sarah of Blossom and Branch and Jenna of Love Jenna Calligraphy. I was swooning over all the tiny (and Brooklyn-themed!) details of the table.

It was a great day – I hope to be a part of it again next year!
