N + P's Traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony | May 1, 2015

There truly was not a moment that wasn't filled with smiles, hugs and laughter during this traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony that I photographed at The Garden City Hotel in Garden City, NY on May 1, 2015. The room was filled with vibrant colors, family (some of whom had flown in from Vietnam), friends, and ritual.Nabilia+Phong TC_B-40 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-39 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-38 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-37 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-36 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-35 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-34 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-33 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-32 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-31 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-30 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-29 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-28 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-27 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-26 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-25 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-24 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-23 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-22 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-21 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-20 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-19 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-18 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-17 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-16 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-15 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-14 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-13 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-12 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-11 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-10 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-9 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-8 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-7 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-6 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-5 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-4 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-3 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-2 Nabilia+Phong TC_B-1

Normi + Michael's Brooklyn Wedding | December 27, 2013

A quick flashback to a very cold, but even more happy December 27, 2013. Normi and Michael got married at the courthouse in Brooklyn, NY. The couple and family hung out, talked and laughed while waiting to see the officiant. Once in it felt like a huge ceremony with everyone clapping and continuing to laugh and have so much fun. We then adventured to Brooklyn Bridge park for a windy and chilly photo session. Despite the cold, you couldn't have asked for a better day.
