This post is one day late, but better late than never!  I am very pleased that the following images placed on the recent ISPWP (International Society of Professional Wedding Photographer) Quarterly contest.  I just recently joined this society, so this comes as a great surprise – a pleasant one, especially because the votes come from a panel of judges that I truly respect.
Getting Ready – 11th Place (Angela + Angel’s wedding)

Bride and Groom Portrait – 7th

Engagement Portrait – 9th (Nina + Sam’s Engagement)

and last but not least: Reception – 1st Place (Pang + Scott’s Wedding)

And Ray took one spot: First Dance – 16th (Whitney + Alex)

It was day 2 of our 3-day stay in New York and it was cold, and raining!  Cold and rain do not go together well for sure, especially for us who is not accustomed to having both at the same time… uhm.. yep, that’s us.

However, the talented photographers Tak + Steven were the super trooper of the day as we shoot around for their engagement session (with the wedding to follow the next day).  We strolled around in the famous Coney Island and several adjacent places.  4 Umbrellas, 4 wet shoes, 4 pairs of partially wet legs, and 4 wet cameras later, we still had a lot of fun!  So here we go:

PS: watch for their wedding images coming up soon!

Sherry is a lawyer, Larry is a lawyer.  Both of their occupations and names rhymed.  Two great people with great personalities and kindness.

My friend, Dexter Lo came out to second shoot for me.

The train!

While in New York City, we visited Krys’ old neighborhood and had tons of fun running around with them in Central Park and the Grand Central terminal.
Krys + Ben have great chemistry together and they definitely made our job easier. :)
