BAM Wedding Expo – Here Comes the Brooklyn Bride!

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!

Here Comes The Brooklyn Bride (And Other Things)

It’s unusual for me to post like this, but I’ve been up to some exciting things (in addition to shooting). I wanted to share them all with you!

First, I’m putting together Sam and Lee (part two) for the blog. Their elegant reception was held at ReBar in Dumbo. Here is a sneak peak with a promise of a full post coming soon…

I also spent a few days in Altoon, Pa at a workshop with the amazingly talented Thom Rouse. The workshop was hosted by the wonderful Tammy and Tamar of London Wolfe Photography in their ginormous studio/coffee shop (Yep, that’s right! These talented ladies opened a coffee shop in their studio space, ingeniously marrying my two favorite things – coffee and photography!). I learned so much while I was there and I interacted with some awesome people. It was a great time and exciting to be back in Brooklyn with lots of new photoshop skills and photography ideas! Here is a shot (captured by Tammy) of everyone working…

Next, I’m getting ready for my first Bridal Show (gulp)! I’m really excited about it especially because it’s in Brooklyn and featuring a lot of great local vendors! Check it out:

You can purchase tickets here: Buy Tickets Online! If you go, please stop by my booth and say hello!

And last, but certainly not least, I’ve been accepted as a photographer for The Littlest Heroes Project! If you’ve never heard of it, check it out. It’s an amazing organization.

So for now, that’s it. But I hope to post again real soon.
