Jessica + Chris Buffalo NY

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

It is always a treat to spend time with my family.

We just shot the wedding of my niece Jessica and Chris.

I am number 8 of nine kids and almost all of us were there …

We missed my brother Thierry and his wife and kids who live in the south of France.

I had the pleasure of meeting Lisa and John in Newport this past weekend.

Their wedding will take place at the beautiful Belle Mer in Newport, this fall …

So we decided to choose a very historic Newport feel for the engagement portrait … Rosecliff.

I LOVE these big ancient trees!

Normally we have spent the past years going to India before the busy rush of the wedding season …

There was nothing to do except swim, sun, and being together … Pure Joy!!
