Megan and Chris

Married November 14th, 2009

Chris and Meg met in August of 2002 when they were both Resident Advisors in Kroner Hall at Rider University. Since it was her first semester as a Resident Advisor, Meg was assigned Chris as her "RA Buddy". He was supposed to teach her everything he knew.

After the first day of training, in a freak accident, Meg dropped her office key down the toilet. When she ran to her "RA buddy" for help, Chris realized she was really something special.

Chris proposed to Meg at the Hershey Hotel in Hershey Park after their 6 year anniversary dinner! Chris wanted to take Meg for a walk in the outdoor garden after dinner, but she interrupted the plan when she had to use the ladies room. When she came out, Chris was waiting for her in the beautiful lobby next to the grand piano. He had the ring in his pocket and couldn't wait for a walk in the garden to pop the question.

Obviously, amongst the tears, she said YES!

They went to sunny Australia for 2 weeks for their honeymoon.

The DJ Company

In 2009 I photographed 64 weddings. Of those 64, many of them have been with The DJ Company providing the music for the reception. Ryan Handelsman who is the owner and principal DJ of a stable of several DJ's is a real professional. Not only do they offer DJ services, but they also offer ambient lighting which can transform a room. I have witnessed mom's, dad's, grandparents and Priests behaving badly dancing to the music on the lighted platforms that the DJ company provides. Keep up the good work Ryan!

Meredith and Cesar

Meredith Makofsky and Cesar Mesa were married at the beautiful Villa Borghese in Wappingers Falls, NY. They met when Cesar was the property manager of the place where Meredith lived when she first moved to MD 3 years ago. They started dating about 9 months after they met, and they got married on their 2 year anniversary!! As you can tell from the photos, these two are truly in LOVE!

Advice to other brides: Don't stress out over every little detail, because if something goes wrong the day of the wedding, no one will even notice; and don't forget to enjoy the day, because it only happens once!!

Armani Casa Party With John Mayer

Joy Moyler, the creative design director... (and photographer) at Armani Casa designed John Mayer's apartment in New York City. After several months of painstaking attention to design details it's all done. John's apartment is featured in the September 2009 edition of Elle Decor magazine. Joy and John were hanging out at a party sponsored by Elle Decor Magazine and Armani Casa. John plays his guitar at the Beacon Theater in New York where Joy took this photo.

Great job Joy!!!

Diana and Matthew.

Diana and Matt tied the knot at Round Hill, F.E.A.S.T. Caterers in New York. They met in 2003 during the the big Northeast Blackout., who can forget that day? The light has been shining on them ever since. With Sonoma wine and fresh snipped blooms in hand, Matt proposed to Diana on a hill with breathtaking views of endless farmland.

The high point of the day for Diana was when she was introduced as "Mrs."!! Diana would advise brides to be to, "remember why you are getting married", and lay off the bridezilla marathons...It's just not healthy!

They spent 2 weeks in Tuscany for their honeymoon. Congratulations to Diana and Matt on a wonderful wedding!!
