Today’s Style Me Pretty Little Black Book Blog features Eleanor and Matt’s Wedding at Tyrone Farm in Pomfret CT!  Relaxed and stylish–that fits both Eleanor and Matt and their wedding.  Their super-creative team of vendors included Chocolate Creative Design, Tyrone FarmHana Floral Design, and The White Dress by the Shore and Gourmet Galley.  Congrats, Eleanor and Matt!

We hope everyone in the tri-state area is recovering ok from Sandy’s wrath….especially folks in NYC!  What a difference a month makes…just one month ago yesterday Pam and Nick’s were married at Pier Sixty at the Chelsea Piers in Manhattan.  Let’s go back and take a look…

While Pam and her girlfriends readied themselves up on Central Park, Nick prepped downtown at Battery Park’s Ritz-Carlton.  They rendezvous’d for a first look outside the uptown apartment and it was just perfect.  Pam’s a hugely happy person who really brings out the smile in Nick!  Next stop was the summery green Central Park Conservancy for fun bridal party photos before making our way to Chelsea for their ceremony and reception at Pier Sixty.

It was a pleasure working with the wonderful event planner Harriette Rose Katz and her team, and Jeffrey at Pier Sixty!  The stellar creative décor came from Mark Rose Events whose beyond gorgeous floral work for the Chuppah and reception–along with lighting from Frost Productions–made a most magical setting for the guests entering the Aquatania Room.  Pier Sixty captures that festive luxury liner era in its ballrooms and outdoor promenade on the Hudson, and features Abigail Kirsch cuisine.  And the band Starlight Music, playing the spectrum from acoustic to Santana to high energy dance, was a huge hit.

With a fun–and funny–group of friends and family, this was a big NYC wedding with an intimate feel.  Thank you so much Pam and Nick and your families for having us photograph your day!   To view many more photos please click here

Back in August we came into NYC to photograph at the L’Oreal Tech Center on Fifth Avenue for Dark and Lovely, L’Oreal’s line of black women’s relaxers, hair color and styling products.  Dark and Lovely is celebrating its 40th anniversary and wanted to create a special advertorial page for magazines including Essence, and use the images for web and Facebook use.  The theme was what Dark and Lovely means to women, and how it makes you feel beautiful inside and out…and it was a whole lot of fun to shoot!  The three women weren’t models but you can’t tell that from the photos–they were great to work with–thanks Jayda, Ashley and C. Devone!  And many thanks also to Nicole from Bratskier and Damien of L’Oreal!  You can view more of our commercial work here!
