Carlie & Brian's Wedding at Brotherhood Winery

Oh goodness gracious am I excited to share this wedding! It is just sooo beautiful in every way! Carlie and Brian are one of those crazy-good-looking couples, but they are also crazy-awesome-sweet too. They both had big smiles on their faces all day, it was a joy to photograph them and their friends and family. 

I love love love the color scheme of vibrant blue accented with yellow that Carlie and Brian chose. Carlie has amazing taste, and everything she selected for her wedding reflects that. Okay... enough gushing on my part, just enjoy the photos:


Carlie and her sisters were so much fun!





Amazingly gorgeous bride


The BEAUTIFUL Goshen United Methodist Church: 











These are the moments I just absolutely live to capture. The way Carlie and Brian are looking at each other says so much:







Handsome (and silly) guys - love it!



























We had some fun down in the wine cellar at Brotherhood Winery:




I ADORE this image of Carlie and Brian as they toasted. Brian's grandfather had previously recorded a video, toasting the new Mr. & Mrs., shortly before he passed. It was an incredibly beautiful and touching moment.



Thank you so much Carlie and Brian for letting Kelly Vasami Photography be a part of your special day - it was AMAZING!!

Westchester Family Portrait Photographer

I had SO much fun photographing this sweet young family! Corinne recently became a big sister, so it was fun to be able to capture photographs of this new family of four. There was a fair amount of silliness going on during this session (totally my influence), and and once Corinne warmed up to my camera, she was a natural! It was so much fun to go play outside for an hour in the sunshine instead of sitting in front of my computer.

Vanessa & Mark's Wedding at West Park Winery

Mark and Vanessa had a beautiful fall wedding at West Park Winery in West Park, NY. Vanessa is one of the happiest brides I've ever photographed, and you could tell each moment that these two were so excited to be getting married to each other!

Mark sent flowers to Vanessa's mother before the wedding. So I'm pretty sure he wins the award for "Best Son In Law Ever".



Gorgeous bride Vanessa puts on the finishing touches.





The reception was held at West Park Winery, and we were able to get some great portraits outside during cocktail hour. Vanessa and Mark had wine-themed decor and favors for their guests. I loved the little pops of vibrant orange throughout the wedding.





It didn't take much to get these two to smooch for the camera ;)



West Park Winery has a beautiful tented reception room set up on the property, with gorgeous draped fabric and sparkling chandeliers, which made a perfect backdrop to Vanessa & Mark's wedding reception.





One of my favorite wedding bands, E.T.A., provided great music that kept the crowd on their feet all night.



Vanessa and Mark set up a bon fire and treated everyone to a surprise S'Mores station at the end of the reception. What a sweet treat for their guests! It was a fabulous end to a fabulous night.



Vanessa and Mark, you guys are awesome! Your wedding was so beautiful and sweet and personal, it was just fantastic and reflective of the two of you. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day, it was an absolute joy!

New York City Family Portrait Photographer

This sweet family should look very familiar if you are a regular reader of the blog! I love getting to capture the fun candid moments of my families over the years, and get to watch their children grow. Big brother Jimmy is used to seeing me and my lens, and now little brother Simon is getting in on the act as well. We always have a great time venturing over to Central Park to have some fun.
