Nicole + Ben’s Engagement Photos

Berit — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 21:55:01 +0000

I’ve known Nicole for about five years because she assisted me with some of my work in wedding photography. Seeing Nicole as an employee showed me right away that she is smart, intuitive, creative, fun, energetic; and knowing Nicole as a bride-to-be and friend has been as rewarding as well. She is articulate, whimsical, compassionate and a great person to know and love. I am so honored and thrilled to death to be photographing Nicole and Ben’s wedding coming up this Fall at the beautiful Natirar in Bedminster, NJ. I look forward to every time we see eachother! Nicole and Ben seem to be a perfect complement to one another, and I know to expect the unexpected with this couple!

Lauren & Brian’s Engagement Session in Hoboken, NJ

Berit — Sun, 23 May 2010 21:15:25 +0000

Even though there is a lot of spontaneity with my work during engagement sessions and weddings, some careful planning makes the end result even better! I always appreciate and love to talk to my clients beforehand about many different things, such as style, personalities, their backgrounds, the bride’s hair and makeup, and the end-use of the images. These things are crucial to successful photography. I really do photograph from my heart, and having the opportunity to talk to my clients makes this so much better – and is the reason I love it so much! Lauren and Brian did give me this opportunity, and what I discovered is a really beautiful relationship, a sense of confidence, true friendship and love with one another. We had a beautiful day in Hoboken, where they both live. There was a sense of quiet and calm, and I was so thrilled to be there with them. Lauren and Brian, it is such a pleasure to know you – I can’t tell you how excited I am to be photographing your winter wedding at The Venetian!!

A special thank you to Adriana & Adam for referring me to Lauren & Brian xxoo

Lindsay & Mike’s Personalized Wedding Guest Book

Berit — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 02:02:33 +0000

First, I have to say, I love this family to pieces! We’ve had unbelievably fun times, including two full days of engagement shoots: one day at the Jersey shore, and one day in Manhattan. It was Lindsay’s mom’s idea to have a variety of photos in order to put together a very personalized guest book for her daughter’s wedding. We had the beach and the amusement park practically to ourselves – and I was able to work on my whims and get to know a really amazing couple all throughout. And, in New York, we went everywhere! What a playground the city is Below is the layout and design I did for Lindsay & Mike’s Guest Book that developed from our day at the amusement park and beach. The city photos were used for other goodies, which I will share soon. I know this Guest Book is something that Lindsay and Mike will look back on for years to come – and I’m so happy to have been a part of it!
