Well I (Jane) haven’t been to a wedding as a guest since my cousin’s wedding in Wales back in 2010, so it was so fun attending Miss Nikki Nicole’s New Orleans French Quarter destination wedding!  All of us from our girls photographers’ group were on hand, shooting away and have a wonderful time–Carla and Amanda and myself, along with our photog guy friends, Paul, Ty, Jim, and Dave.   Nikki asked me to shoot a few bridal portraits and we all had a hard time putting our cameras down during her ceremony on the French Quarter’s Royal Street which was followed by the Young Pinstripes New Orleans Marching Brass Band parade!  The feeling was pure joy with the music and the excitement of a street wedding…what a spectacle and just so in-the-moment!!!  Also loved Nikki’s short Modern Trousseau dress from The White Dress by the Shore and gold Jimmy Choos…so very Nikki Nicole!  Here are some of my photos–congratulations Nikki and Rob–your wedding was a blast!!  Click here to see more pics!

Go Mets!  It’s opening day for the New York Mets at Citi Field (and Santana’s back on the mound!) and we can now show you the portraits we took in March in Port St. Lucie FL at Spring Training.  As always it’s great working with Julie, our client at SportsNet NY (SNY), which uses the photos during game broadcasts for player intros, etc.  This is our fourth year shooting the Mets at Spring Training, where we set up a studio in the visiting team’s locker room and shoot all the players at 7am on “Picture Day” in 90 minutes.

Our assignment is to capture a different side of the players from straight sports photography–this year SNY’s art director asked for a split-face shot for their on-screen use.  Photos of David Wright, Johan Santana, Josh Thole, Ike Davis, Manny Acosta, Daniel Murphy, R.A. Dickey, Mike Pelfrey, Ruben Tejada, Miguel Batista, former ’86 Met and 3rd base coach Tim Teufel…and others are below.  Take a look and root for the Mets in their 50th season…Let’s Go Mets!!  To see more of our NY Mets photos click here.  To visit our commercial photography website click www.photojane.com.

We zipped into Manhattan in early March to photograph a wonderful 25th birthday party…and what a night it was!  Charlotte’s celebration ran the spectrum from lively cocktail party to intimate candlelit dinner to all-out dance party for hundreds of friends to the mash-up sounds of special guest,  The White Panda.  A perfect party in every way!

The venue, Skylight Soho on Hudson Street, was so creatively decorated by Lewis Miller Design with beautiful chandeliers, floral arrangements and stylish touches, cuisine from Olivier Cheng Catering along with a cool custom cake from Lulu Custom Cake Boutique.  It was a pleasure working again with Elizabeth Allen, event planner & designer extraordinaire.  Below are photos from the night (and click here to see more).  Happy Birthday Charlotte!
