I would imagine that couples like this – beautiful from the inside out – are a gift for any photographer, but you’ve certainly taken that gift and made it extraordinary! Wonderful pictures. I am reminded of classic photographs of Barbara Goalen. Amazing.

I’m obsessed with this wedding… So GORGEOUS!!!

PARK SLOPE NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | WYATT MCGUIRE

Posted in KIDDOS, WE ARE FAMILY

It’s no secret. I’ve loved kids since I was one. And my desire to be a Mother? Probably as strong as those body builders with the nasty bulging muscles that lift trucks with their teeth. Yes, yes, nice visual as I prepare you for pure preciousness I realize, but I kid not, my friends. I kid not. Newborns completely steal my heart. And Wyatt McGuire is no exception. Sweet Wyatt was born on our country’s birthday and he lit up the world with his arrival with the spark of a thousand fireworks.

Documenting the beaming joy that only a new parent can experience as they marvel over this incredible little miracle is truly one of the greatest honors and privileges of my work and it is one of my absolute favorite times to photograph. If I had a newborn session every day, I don’t think I would ever tire of it. There is something so magical about this time and I truly treasure it. Kathryn and Tim, Wyatt’s proud parents are crazy in love with this amazing new baby boy, and it’s no wonder, for baby Wyatt is an absolute angel and capturing this sweet face as he slept so peacefully brought a bright smile to all of our faces. I hope it brings a smile to yours.

Kathryn and Tim, may the joy of parenting sweet Wyatt bring you a lifetime of laughter and happiness. So happy for you both!

CENTRAL PARK ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS | STEPHANIE + PAUL

Posted in WILL YOU?

Central Park has long been the place for engagement photos. I mean, after all Central Park is one of the epitomes of New York City and it’s beautiful, so what’s not to love, right? Well, nothing my friends, nothing at all. I love Central Park as much as the next guy, but I also love doing something different and putting a twist on things. And Stephanie and Paul? They were totally up for the challenge. The future Mr. and Mrs. wanted their session in Central Park since they got engaged there, but they also wanted to include elements of themselves in their engagement photos, and I was totally on board.

Stephanie and Paul met at a convention in high school and reconnected not long ago and felt as if no time had passed. Though many miles now separate them as they maintain a long distance relationship while Stephanie finishes medical school, they are counting down the days to be in the same place together forever soon. A long distance veteran myself, one thing I always loved is that feeling of excitement when you’re finally together – every moment is treasured and I adored seeing Stephanie and Paul treasuring each moment together.

Yay to an afternoon in Central Park with a lovely couple, Magnolia Bakery cupcakes and football jerseys! What a fun day!

1950′s CUBAN INSPIRED GARDEN WEDDING | LISETTE + JOSE

Posted in WE DO!

I’m not going to lie, I kind of love wedding themes. No, no. Think tiny details that go beyond color schemes and are full of do-it-yourself touches, not an Elvis and Priscilla in Graceland bride and groom. I mean, really, Internet, have a little faith. So when Lisette got in touch with me and mentioned a 1950′s Cuban inspired garden wedding, you can imagine my response. Um, yes, please! Just hearing about their day made me look forward to being a part of it, but finally meeting the wonderful Lisette and Jose in person, made me even more thrilled to have the opportunity to do what I love for such lovely people.

Lisette and Jose are such an incredibly sweet pair and it made me smile to see them soak up every moment of their day to the fullest. Let me tell you, this couple burned up the dance floor, my friends. I was thoroughly impressed and found it difficult not to dance along with everyone as I snapped my shutter across the dance floor. Not only are Jose and Lisette complete sweethearts, but their family and friends could not have been more warm or welcoming to the only non-Cuban girl in the room. ;) I can’t say what a privilege it was to document the special day of such a fabulous couple. Lisette and Jose, wishing you a lifetime of smiles!

Love + Hugs,

Maggie

CENTRAL PARK ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS | JESSICA + CALVIN

Posted in WILL YOU?

Central Park engagement photos on a sun filled summer day with ice cold brightly colored popsicles? Ummm…yes, please! SUCH fun! Jessica and Calvin met and got engaged in Central Park so it seemed only fitting to do their engagement session in this special place.

Not too long ago, this sweet pair met among mutual friends on a warm summer night at the New York Philharmonic concert in Central Park. Calvin was immediately sold on Jessica, but Jessica wasn’t so sure. When Calvin contacted her shortly thereafter to meet up for coffee, Jessica still wasn’t convinced, but decided she’d go out with him anyway and get to know him. What resulted, my friends, was that Ms. Jessica became sold on Calvin. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Jessica and Calvin might be two of the happiest people in this world. I don’t think there was a point in their engagement session that they weren’t smiling, and, when I asked them to put on their best Vogue / GQ faces for me, they inevitably would follow up with laugher, making our day in the park an absolute blast! I am so thrilled to be working with such lovely people and simply adore how in love and happy they are together. So cute! I couldn’t imagine a better match for either of them and I’m so looking forward to capturing and sharing in their day with them in September!
