The Hudson Valley Blizzard ‘10
Saturday, February 27th, 2010
Hope everyone’s doing well with all the heavy snow that we’ve had recently. Our phone, (845) 896-4177, was acting a little crazy, so if you were trying to reach us and you got a weird message, it was only temporary (knock on wood) and it should just work now.
Many are still without power until early next week. Let’s keep the Central Hudson workers in our prayers as they work around the clock to get 70,000 families back up and going with power. The Dutchess County Department of Emergency Response set up several “warming centers” across the county Friday to provide a haven for those forced to leave their homes. On Friday night, John Jay High School in Wiccopee was opened as an emergency overnight shelter.
Central Hudson has scheduled the distribution of free dry ice and bottled water at seven locations beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday. They are:
— Rosendale Recreation Center, Route 32, Rosendale;
— Eltings Corners, Route 299, New Paltz;
— Government Shelter, 2 Elting Court, Ellenville;
— Middlehope Firehouse, Route 9W, Middlehope;
— Dan Leghorn Engine Co., Route 52, Lakeside Road, Newburgh;
— East End Fire Department, Route 9D, Swenson Drive, Wappingers Falls; and
— Fishkill Town Hall, Route 52, Fishkill.
If you’re able, call and check on elderly neighbors that maybe affected to see if they are in need of any assistance. Hopefully, this will soon pass – Be safe everyone!

Don’t they look sweet?
We had a fun time shooting these little handsome 1.5yr old twins at our studio in Lagrangeville, NY. Dad Geoff Casto had his hands full keeping them occupied until they were ready for their close up. Who knew an empty closet was the hot spot to hang out in? 
The portraits were a gift to Mom, Heather Casto of The Chocolate Mousse in Hyde Park, NY. Together Heather & Geoff provide chef services for Catering Events & Parties, In Home Cooking Parties and Personal Chef Services. I think these two tykes are gonna grow up learning more than how to boil water!

Congratulations! and yes,this post is directed at the grooms. Look we’re not asking you to do male Boudoirs, but we’ll want to take photos of you and the guys.
There’s a lot we can do. I mean these are “The Guys”, “Dah Boys” or maybe just your best buds and family. We don’t have to cover the guys getting ready, although we can. If we can rally the groomsman at portrait time, we can get some images you can look back on for decades to come.
We want our presence at your wedding to result in a better experience than would have been had without us, so we place a high premium on fun.
If the buddies score points here, the NFC and AFC championship games at your place or “Grand Theft Auto night” on the game console comes that much closer to transpiring.
We actually prepare you for this sort of portraiture on the engagement shoot. Even people who don’t usually like having their picture taken get a lot more comfortable and even enthusiastic after the engagement session. It’s really a great value too.
We’ll talk more about engagement sessions soon,
Allan
Christina & Jeff – January 3, 2009
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009
Christina and Jeff live up in Albany, but came back to the Hudson Valley for their beautiful January 3, 2009 wedding. Their sacrament of marriage was performed at St. Mary’s Church in Fishkill, NY.
We arrived at the Dutchess Manor in Beacon, NY for the Reception just in time to catch the light of the setting sun! Luckily Christina had a wonderful wrap to keep cozy in the brisk winter air.
We moved inside for more Bride and Groom portraits.
The reception was filled with family and friends dancing the night away.
It was a joyous day to remember always…..
Ceremony: St. Mary’s – Fishkill, NY; Reception: Dutchess Manor – Beacon, NY; MC/Entertainment: The DJ Solution – Poughkeepsie, NY; Videography: Best of Times Video – New Windsor, NY; Flowers: Floral Bliss – Newburgh, NY
Shaina & Art – December 28, 2008
Wednesday, December 31st, 2008
Shaina and Art are living in Southern California, but flew in for an intimate and beautiful wedding at Le Chambord Inn (Hopewell Junction, NY), this past Sunday.
Surrounded by loving family and friends, they exchanged vows under a hand-made chuppah. Representing the home that the couple will build together, this marriage canopy was held by a particularly impressive attendant – Grandpa Mo.
We were all so blessed with a reprieve from the cold and enjoyed mild enough weather to shoot outside.
It was a wonderful and magical day.
Ceremony and Reception: Le Chambord Inn, Hopewell Junction, NY; Flowers: Lucille’s Floral Design, Fishkill, NY; Entertainment: Days Gone By
