After Denver I flew out to New York to do photograph my clients for a December wedding in the Dominican Republic. They are a really great couple, and I am very excited to photograph their destination wedding. I am glad I was able to come out for their engagement session, since it always takes a bit of time to get a relationship going between a couple and a photographer.  We ended up photographing around Central Park, a fantastic New York location.

Last week I had an opportunity to shoot a bar and grill in Denver for the owner, builder and the designer.  This 3 in 1 deal worked out quite well, especially since I got to spend time with my cousin Jenia Kosoy, who happens to be the lead designer on the project. I don’t typically blog about non-wedding endeavors, but this one deserves a special mention. Jenia, did an amazing job creating this place, and I can honestly say that I am impressed. What’s random is that we have the same name (Gene is Jenia in Russian), but our last names although the same are from two different Kosoy lineages.  Kosoy is an extremely rare name, so go figure.  Enjoy the photos…

This fun couple was referred to me via a Facebook friend. They have an out of state photographer take photos at their upcoming wedding, but no engagement shots. I feel pretty good about the way the shots came out, and glad that this lovely couple got a bit of practice in front of the camera before the big day. We started off the shoot at the Conservatory of flowers, and moved onto the grungy blocks of Haight Street, making a special stop at Amoeba records. Overall it was a very fun, easy going shoot.

This is the portrait session I did for Angeline and Sebastian’s wedding.  Their dog, Mariposa, is a huge part of their life and they insisted on getting her for the shoot.  I loved the idea of using their pet in the photos, but wanted to do something unusual and fun.  These are the results of inserting this dressed up wedding couple and their dog in one of the busiest parts of the city. I absolutely love taking photos in North Beach.  I loved every minute of this shoot. They are truly a great couple, and I am really glad I was part of their special day.

I first photographed Allie and her boyfriend a few years ago.  This time Allie and her sister Jenn contacted me for a fun shoot for their dad’s birthday present.  We met at the Conservatory of Flowers and went inside the tunnel adjacent to it. There were some guys playing Jazz at the end of the tunnel, so naturally I sat them in front of the musicians. We stayed there for a few songs, allowing them to enjoy the music while I took some shots, featuring the musicians. I left them a card along with a tip, hoping they’ll contact me for their closeups.  I really enjoy incorporating the natural environment, especially if its interesting people.
