Lora + Todd - Album

JB,

The album is AMAZING!!!! Maybe Todd and I can count the album as our "paper" first anniversary gift to each other?! Thank you for being the most perfect photographer and capturing our day so well! We will never forget it thanks to you, the pics, and now the album!

Jacqueline + Rob - Engagement

One of the fun parts of photography is getting to see new places. Jacqueline and Rob showed me Carl Schurz Park on the Upper East Side, a park I'd never visited before, the park where they got engaged.

Lloyd Sherman - Funeral

My uncle Lloyd Sherman passed away tragically this past August.

Lloyd was a lover of music and was very moved by New Orleans Second Line funeral processions, so my cousins decided to honor him with one of his own after he passed, an unusual sight on New York City's Upper West Side.

Rest in peace, Lloyd. We miss you so much.











The Montana Ray is a guitar Lloyd picked up in a midtown pawn shop years ago, a symbol of his love of country music and his playful character.

Lloyd, who was a lover of country music, together with my Aunt Jane, raised children who became talented musicians.

My cousins sang tribute to Lloyd after his funeral:





Lloyd's granddaughter Annabelle pulled the fire alarm just before this song started. Pretty classic. You can hear it going off in the background:
