Serving Corolla, Duck, Carova, Southern Shores, Kitty Hawk, Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills, the entire New Jersey New York metropolitan area, and everywhere in between!
Just finished up this album design for Kara and Dave. Their wedding was on Long Beach Island in New Jersey and it was simply amazing . Click the link Kara and Dave and see the entire album for yourself!
Unlike most wedding photographers these days, all of my album designs are custom designed by me for each client, and never come from a template. This way your wedding album is uniquely yours.
As a professional you know first impressions count, but does your business portrait or headshot really make a great first impression? Was it made 5 years ago? Whether you are in Manhattan, the greater NYC metropolitan area or the Outer Banks, I provide great looking corporate headshot portraits done at my studio or your office. I will even bring “the studio” to you for fast, quality headshots done right at your event. My professional headshot photography and executive portraits are affordable and the results are consistent, and I guarantee they will make you look great!
First Holy Communion is an important religious milestone in a child’s life. The portraits of your child’s day should reflect all the beauty and reverence of this special time. Whether they are made in your church, my studio or your special location, I promise to create images for you that will become family treasures for years to come.
Exquisite beach portraits, done right, every time, over the years that’s what my clients have come to expect from me, and that’s what they get……….Grandparents and grandkids, young families, children playing on the beach, family pet, fun images that portray real moments in their lives. Cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
I ran across this image while searching for something and I just had to include it in this post. It was made a couple of years ago in my Franklin Lakes studio and is a perfect example of how black and white just makes some images sing.
…and last but not least, if you are in the area this Sunday, drop by Reeve Reed Arboretum on Hobart Ave. in Summit, NJ and check out their Daffodil Day festivities. It starts at 1 PM and runs till 4. See you there!
Little Olivia said hello to us on March 16, 2012, and her awesome grandmother and I are so psyched to have her in our lives!
Is she too cute or what? Can’t wait to get her on a surfboard – lol
The first few days of life are so special and exciting, and about 10 -14 days old is the perfect time to do newborn portraits. Olivia was 10 days old in this one.
Do you know anyone who is expecting! Do them a huge favor and make them do a portrait of their newborn. It is a unique time that goes by so very fast, and besides having these newborn portraits for you and your family, newborn portraits are perfect for birth announcements, and make perfect gifts for grandparents, godparents and the entire family.

While in Ithaca, NY visiting Olivia and her parents I got to sneak out and make some pictures, this waterfall just outside of town is one of my favorites.

As a professional photographer in the Outer Banks I’ve had a very prolific few days lately, in addition to working with The Island School of Dance in Nags Head, N.C. all week and making images like this,
I made this image while on my run on Tuesday morning, which is part of my iPhone Photo du Jour project.
You can check out many more images from IPPDJ project ( and even purchase one – they make great gifts )
This family portrait on the beach in Corolla was made the same morning,
and this picture was made later the same evening at the Nags Head Pier.
For the techies out there, it was made with a 30 second exposure at f22, and processed in Adobe Lightroom 4 and Photoshop 4.
Pheeeewww
And ah, oh yeah, the running streak is still going strong at 1842 days.

wow, from one of my all time favorite love songs…… Gerry Rafferty’s “Right Down the Line”, I listened to Bonnie Raitts magnificent cover of it about 10 times on my run today and thought about Patti ( aka Skippy) the whole time, it just seems to have always fit……I’m a pretty lucky dude……. (click the spotify link below for a listen).
got in a nice 8 1/2 miler this morning, and listened to the same spotify playlist as a few weeks ago while in the Outer Banks, and it really made for a magical run, you can check out the course here. Kind of a slow easy run, and the time was slower than usual because the weather and the music and the scenery was just hitting me and I had to stop every now and then and take some pictures.
I’m really lucky to live by such great places to run!
My regular course goes through the old NJ State Fish Hatchery in Hackettstown.
And I’ll tell you, even though I’ve got 3 dozen marathons under my belt, and I haven’t missed a day of running in over 5 years, my belly is still under my belt too,
and when I go one way, it still goes the other way – lol!
I guess I need to eat a little less often & do P90X ab ripper a lot more often – lol

The above images were all shot on my iPhone,
and I’m sure that one of the images from todays run will make it onto iPhone Photo du jour.
thanks

So the other day this Outer Banks Photographer once again found himself in Asbury Park, New Jersey, and although it sure ain’t the Outer Banks, it’s a very cool place in it’s own right, with tons of history…..Springsteen, Tillie, the Stone Pony, madame Marie, Casino Pier and on and on.
Mostly kind of run down at the moment, Asbury Park has always had a very cool underlying vibe for me, and I would love to see it make a comeback to it’s former glory. If you are ever in the area, and have never been to Asbury Park, you really should stop and check it out, there are some great restaurants on the boardwalk, and also a few blocks off the beach back in town. Lots of art galleries too.
Here’s a couple of portraits from the Dog Days of Winter portrait fund raiser to benefit Eleventh Hour Resuce. Sebastian and Marty were a lot fun to work with, and I’m looking forward to making a lot more four legged friends over the next couple of weeks.
I’ll be posting more images from Dog Days of Winter, so be sure to keep checking back!
