Juni and Lela found us through a mutual friend, and were really excited to get some engagement photos taken. We’re so glad to have worked with them, especially since they picked the perfect time for their photos (Spring) and an awesome location (Branch Brook Park).
Not a lot of New Jerseyans know this, but Branch Brook Park in Essex County is home to a beautiful and vast collection of cherry blossoms. Since we went during the height of the blossom season, the cherry blossoms were still on their branches and were full of great color. With a neat mix of pedestrian bridges, romantic walkways and a myriad of spring colors, we’ll definitely be returning to this location soon enough.
Juni and Lela– thanks again for choosing us, and congratulations on your engagement!

Perhaps their “Thank You” card says it all:
Months earlier, my (Jon’s) aunt and uncle from Massachusetts had contacted me and asked if I would do a photo session with them in NYC. Admittedly a bit nervous, I gladly agreed and we setup a date on our calendars. This wasn’t just any photo session– Auntie Lillian had shared with me that they never had a photographer on their wedding day (rather a small & intimate wedding ceremony), and she always wanted professional photos done of her and my uncle. On top of that, her milestone birthday had just past (not sure if I’m allowed to say, but contrary to how young she looks, she didn’t just turn 30), all the more wanting photos to cherish. Lastly, being relatives of mine, I knew these photos had to be special– time honored, personal, memorable– yet far from tacky & cheesy.
During our afternoon together, we ventured mostly through Central Park. Below you will also see some random images, but none are posted without a purpose. (photo#3) My aunt’s an artist (“self-teaching” oil painter- see her blog for definition), and absolutely loves flowers. In fact, check out her work here: http://lilyoilpaints.blogspot.com/ ). Also, she loves cats. (photo#14) When we saw these cats and dogs offered up for adoption, I knew she would be tempted to bring them all home. Thankfully, she didn’t, or our photo session would get a whole lot complicated. Other places we visited included a thrift store and the classically beautiful brownstone buildings.
So this one’s for you guys. Happy belated Auntie Lillian, and to you both, thank you for allowing me to be a part of it all.
