New York, Part 2

silly brothers

Here is Part 2 of my New York City pics (here’s part 1). That little boy up there with his mommy is a gift from God. Such a sweet sweet boy and so loved. East coast, West coast, wherever you are, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends! We are very [...]

New York, Part 1

sweet big bro

Took me long enough, I know!! I’m finally sharing some New York City pictures with you. My trip to New York this Fall was incredible! The Fall color was AMAZING (two years in a row — I’m very lucky), and this year I didn’t even have to use my “rain out” days. I guess I [...]

Along the Hudson River

Little Bro giggles

(side note: Please tell me I’m not the only one who immediately thinks of Captain Sully when I hear “Hudson River!” ok… moving on…) I’m sitting in my rented New York City apartment (OK, it’s not “my” apartment, but you know what I mean), taking a look at the photos that I took this morning, [...]

NYC Fall Family

Is she a cutie or WHAT!? The Fall color in Central Park this year was AMAZING. Even the locals were raving about how the colors were the most beautiful they’d seen in a very long time.

NYC! The Y is for YORKIE! — woof!

Any “Sex in the City” fans out there? You know who you are! You also know that little Coco up there looks a heck of a lot like Samantha’s pooch, Bridget, from the movie.

I landed in NYC this morning at 5:30am (New York Time… YAWN!!!) The SAINTS at the New Yorker Hotel gave me my room for the day when I arrived at the front desk at 6:30am! I got a few hours of sleep, then I met up with two of the funnest (that’s a word, I [...]

Sneak Peek for the 2008 New York Families!

leavestn

My morning in Central Park was absolutely beautiful on Sunday! All of the families were so much fun, and the park proved once again that this is one of my most favorite places in the whole world. I’ve almost completed working on the images from the day, but I wanted to post a sneak peek [...]

Photo tip from nighttime in Times Square … “Dragging the shutter”

joedrag2tn

“Dragging the shutter” is a funky photo term that intimidates some newer photographers. Use a flash (I was using my 580EX) and set your shutter speed on your camera to something slow. Set it slow enough so there will be motion blur all over. Set your camera to “shutter priority mode” (on Canon, it’s Tv [...]

Mpix takes on NYC with me & Rick Sammon

rickcareytn

Yesterday was our big “Mpix takes on NYC” event, and we couldn’t have asked for a better day! The weather was AMAZING, and the group was full of super nice folks! Everyone was excited about photography, eager to learn and share, and the whole morning was a lot of fun. And did I mention that [...]

New York Wrap-Up — look who we literally ran into!

We made it back home! YAY! Wednesday afternoon, we wandered around Central Park (with a soccer ball, as always), and we ended up meeting 3 guys from the UK who were playing “football” in a circle with a make-shift ball.

Day 3 … Part 2 “No Cupholders!?”

A long subway ride to the Bronx delivered Mat & I to Yankee Stadium this afternoon. We saw the new, big, shiny, impressive Yankee Stadium while we waited for the gates to open before the game.

New York, June 2008, day 3

How does Rory know that Mat loves her? Because Mat posed for this picture just for her: Now we’ve both had “That’s How You Know” from Enchanted in our heads all day!

NYC Days 1 & 2

espntn

I put together a movie of Mat’s first two days in the big city. Sunday we hit the Toys R Us in Times Square, saw Lion King, stumbled upon a flea market that took up 4 or 5 city blocks on 6th Ave, and had our nighttime photoshoot in Times Square. Today (Monday), we went [...]

Soccer Star in Times Square

matsittn

What was supposed to be a 5hr non-stop flight from San Diego to JFK turned into a 10-hour weather-avoiding adventure through Rochester. We finally made it to our hotel and got to bed around 4am. Good thing my clients today were so flexible! I don’t think they wanted a photographer working on just a few [...]
