    ava’s sweet 16

    Can you even believe this gorgeous and very sweet girl is only 16?! I’m getting vibes of Cindy Crawford and Eva Mendez. We had just a short time to take some pictures at her dinner at Gatsby’s (and it was chilly and windy like crazy outside) but she rocked it like no one’s business. I loved photographing and meeting her and hope to get the chance again in the future.

    kailey’s sweet 16

    Be forewarned: a LOT of pictures ahead. This was a wonderful party for a wonderful girl who I’ve been photographing for like, ever. If it wasn’t for this family, bsquared photography probably wouldn’t be a thing; they helped me get my start. I was so happy I was there for this auspicious event! When her mom and I discussed me shooting the party, she mentioned that it was going to be a low-key family type party. And then I arrived, and I thought maybe I dreamed that conversation. Styled by her Aunt Jenn-Jenn (Jennifer Evans Events), it was absolutely spectacular and breathtaking with every single detail perfect. Kailey was beautiful and as sweet at you can get, everyone had an amazing time at the party, the decor was phenomenal and the love that surrounded Kailey and her family was so great to witness. Happy Sweet 16 Kailey!

    anna’s “not a sweet 16” party

    Anna didn’t want the WHOLE giant sweet 16 party. Not the big dress, not the grand entrance, not the million people. But she wanted a party. So her parents threw a great small “not a sweet 16” party for her and a few of her friends and family. It was perfect. And even though it wasn’t a ‘sweet 16’, Anna IS a super sweet girl and beautiful to boot. So here are some shots from her not a sweet 16 party!

    guilianna’s sweet 16

    I was referred to this gorgeous girl’s Dad who was planning her whole Sweet 16 by a photografriend and I was so glad she did! Guilianna was stunning in her lavender gown (complete with a train that got bustled up later in the evening) and her amazing red hair. She truly looked like a princess! I was only there for a short while, but it was a great party attended by some super nice kids. I hope to meet them again in my travels, they were a wonderful family to work with. Happy Birthday Guilianna!

    jessica’s sweet 16

    So this sweet young lady who just celebrated her sweet 16 is the niece of a high school classmate & friend. I was so happy to not only see Tami and catch up a little between shots but to meet and photograph her niece’s special day! It was a super cute Parisian themed party at the Sunset Harbor in East Patchogue (I’ve lived on Long Island basically my whole life give or take, and never knew this place even existed. Its way off the beaten path and you’d never find it if you didn’t know about it). We had a kinda muted sunset with lots of cloud cover but we made it work anyway. My favorite part besides the people were the awesome macrons- one in Tiffany Blue that matched my car!
