"THE PHOTOGRAPHS KIMBERLY TOOK WILL HELP US REMEMBER AND CELEBRATE OUR WEDDING DAY FOR YEARS TO COME. SHE IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!"

I’m Kim, a Street Photographer turned Wedding Photographer. 

Fun Facts: I’m half Italian, half Polish, and a Libra. #Pierogies #Pasta #Balance. I once quit a Job to follow The Ramones on a two-week Northeast Tour! 

I studied photojournalism and quickly fell in love with the history and purpose of photography and began photographing weddings 20+ years ago. My Inspiration is found in the work of Gordon Parks, Lisette Model, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sally Mann, W. Eugene Smith, Walker Evans, Brassai, Vivian Maier, Berenice Abbott, and Mary Ellen Mark. (Just to name a few)

The day that I truly fell in love with weddings and wedding photography specifically, was in 1996. It was the day I saw the image of John F Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. They were walking out of the chapel and John was kissing Carolyn’s hand. When I looked at this image of the two of them, I knew, I wanted to capture moments like that for couples. There was this beautifully voyeuristic quality with a sense of intimacy that I wanted to capture and become a part of.

Prior to documenting weddings, I worked in the Hospitality/Wedding industry for most of my life. I worked for wedding venues, wedding planners, restaurants, and nightclubs. During this time I also freelanced as an event photographer. I was lucky enough to document performances and some behind-the-scenes moments from Yo-Yo Ma, Olympia Dukakis, Wynton Marsalis, and Nikki Giovanni.

I love film! I studied film photography and photographed Weddings strictly with film for over 6 years, before digital. I still often shoot with my trusty old film camera.

Also, as much as I love photography, I hate having my picture taken.

Barry has been shooting side by side with me and assisting with the business for the past 15+ years. I call him Bear, Honey Bear, and Barry D. 

Fun Facts: He is half Irish, half Italian, and a Pisces. #Guinness #Braciole #Compassionate.  He has three brothers, Gary, Terry and Larry and a sister Mary.

He has a Business degree from St. John Fisher University and also attended Los Angeles City College for Theater.

Barry worked in Hollywood, with a background and expertise in Estate-Project Management/Personal Assistant in the Entertainment Industry. He has worked for and with numerous Celebrities. Among them; Danny DeVito, Rhea Perlman, Cher, and Music Exec. Tom Whalley to name a few. Barry was, “The Guy”, you would go to for anything. (Similar to Ray Donovan without all the murder, he has some great stories!). Also, he had a short stint of overseeing work in LA at; Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Paul McCartney, The France Family, and Macy Family Estates. 

His work experiences in Hollywood were all-encompassing and included planning and managing high-end parties/events (Pulp Fiction wrap party, etc…). Barry’s background is a key aspect and invaluable on your wedding day. He’s a master planner, problem solver, go-between, and all-around fixer.  

Back in the day, Barry created, executive produced (with Danny DeVito), and starred in a little TV show called, The Sport Jerks, which aired on Comedy Central/NBA Entertainment (with current commish-Adam Silver). Currently, he's back in the works on some new TV/Film projects.

Barry's creative background transcends to his photographic eye.

Also Sports Fans: He’s a die-hard Vikings, Lakers, *Orioles, LA Kings and NY Cosmos Fan. (*Yankee Fans, please don't hold this against him!)
