I`ve never seen myself work – it just never crossed my mind to ask a videographer for a couple of clips before. Last weekend I photographed a Bat Mitzvah where my friend Mike (studiosid.com/) did the video, and he was nice enough to send me a couple of raw clips. http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=11336443&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1

I wanted to try my hand at stop-motion animation for quite some time. I have some (hopefully) interesting ideas for a couple of projects, but before I committed myself to doing quite a bit of work, I decided to do a trial run. The video below is about 8 seconds long and it took 130 still frames and close to an hour to produce. Animation is tough work! http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=11261571&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1

In the last 4 weeks I photographed 2 weddings, 2 Bat Mitzvahs and an engagement session. I`ve been so incredibly busy with editing that I haven`t had a chance to update any of my sites. I`m going to try to put together a few “highlights” slideshows and post them over the next couple of days.
Doesn`t she have the most amazing smile? 
I love photographing engagement sessions. As a photographer, I get the future bride and groom all to myself – there are no guests, friends or family members to distract them from each other, no schedule to adhere to. It`s a great chance for a couple to be themselves without all the pressures of wedding day. Today I photographed the first engagement session of 2010 – Deanna`s and Eric`s. I was so excited that I had to edit a few photographs and post them here. More photos coming soon… 
To all the wonderul couples whose weddings and engagements I photographed over the past 10 years. If you have a few moments to spare, could you please click the link below to review my services on WeddingWire.com. Thank you very much, Dmitriy
Winters are generally slow when it comes to photography. While the downtime gives me a chance to catch up on my reading, do a few geeky projects and to hang out with my family, I miss the excitement of event photography. Here are a few photos from a very cool bar mitzvah that I photographed a few weeks ago.
