Don’t forget to smile! A decent piece of advice from my parents. @noellekovary does a pretty good job showing you just how it’s done. ps if you’re into all things healthy, you should check her out! One of the kindest people I know.

Sometimes going out in the rain has its benefits! Sometimes. Often not.

Legend has it that if you swim to the bottom of this natural pool, you’d be underwater.

Track buddies for life!! 👰 🤵 So happy these two guys tied the knot. Two super cool people I had the privilege of knowing through college 🏃

This location for a recent family photo session had the most brilliant yellows I've seen in a long time. Nassau County, Long Island 🌴

I met @gabrielaellam back in college when she was dating @jamie_cordeiro . We survived Spanish class together, but lost touch after that. Fast forward to today, roughly 8 years later and we were able to reconnect and do a fun autumn photo shoot, with her then boyfriend now husband, Jamie.

There are many roads like this, winding through the hudson valley and catskill region, but this one is one of my favorites.

When @ethan_abramson_furniture isn’t making incredible custom made pieces, he often likes to strike a pose. Sorry for the instagram crop cutting your shoes off

Needless to say, today was a good day. 🤙🏄‍♂️

Yes, sunrise pictures are easy and yes I know they are basic but you gotta give Mother Nature props for putting on a display like this. Tones of lavender.

If you’re into healthy lifestyles then you should totally check out my friend @noellekovary ! She’s all about it and can provide a lot of good info, plus she’s sweet and nice to talk to. I mean, just look how happy these two were drinking tea 🍵. Are you this happy when you drink tea?

Long windy roads into the woods 👍. I had wanted to get this style of shot all summer, but I found it difficult to be in the right place at the right time. A storm had just come through, which left low clouds and a very dreary mood.

Rise and shine! The process of waking up to see the sunrise is never really a pleasant one, but it’s always worth it. This was taken in the brief moment when the sun was between the horizon and the low ceiling.

Believe it or not these folks had no idea I was sneaking pictures of them, although they seem to be posed. They drove out to the northern tip of Block Island to watch the sun set and enjoy a bottle of wine. I ended up showing them the pictures and talking to them a bit. Nice people 😎

Waterfall Wednesday! Found out this gem is not only super pretty, but also super accessible, super close and super not popular. So many wins. 🙆‍♂️

Locked keys in car ✅ Car battery died ✅ Water on inside lens elements ✅ pulled over for speeding ✅ but still managed to get at least one decent shot, so overall a great trip in my book! 😁

Talk about things coming together at just the right moment...This beautiful young couple came out on a hot Sunday afternoon, only to be greeted by RAIN. They patiently waited indoors while the shower passed, giving way to not only lower temperatures but also partial cloud coverage. The NYC skyline was perfectly lit without being blown out, and nobody had to squint into the fading sun! I lit them with a single @godox_photo_equipment softbox and made good use of the ambient light.

First one or second one, which do you prefer? Subtle difference 🧐 but I think this little fairy 🧚‍♀️ belongs in there. However, I also like nature scenes...natural 🤷‍♂️

September 2017

If you’re looking to capture beautiful moments, I highly recommend GreenCastle photography. My husband and I was having difficulty finding a wedding photographer for our Sept. 2017 wedding in Aruba. After many venting sessions to a close girlfriend of mine, who is an event planner in NY, she recommended Ben to me assuring that she has worked with him for several of her events before and is very please with his work. Long story short, my husband and I met Ben and instantly felt comfortable with him. He was very professional and responded to us immediately when we reached out. Ben agreed to fly out to Aruba to be our photographer and offered us a crazy amazing package. We literally had our very own personal photographer the entire weekend! To top it all off, our guests couldn’t stop saying great things about Ben. People tend to stiffen up and get shy around a camera but you can tell by the photos that the guests were comfortable around him and the moments that he captured was genuine. I’m thankful that Ben was recommended to us, My husband and I couldn’t be anymore happy, our wedding photos came out perfect!

Family Portraits

"Ben came over to our apartment and shot a family session on my son’s first birthday. He was incredibly professional and wonderful with our son. I absolutely love the photos he captured. I highly recommend GreenCastle photography for anyone who is looking for treasured photos of a special event. Thank you Ben!"

-Julie

Corporate Events

I have worked with GreenCastle Photography on numerous non-profit events from galas to small receptions, to student centered program events. Every time, Ben takes care to understand the specific event and my needs from him as a photographer.

For my student program event, Ben was sensitive to the delicate nature of photographing students and children and was able to deliver a great portfolio for us to showcase our work. At my gala, I was pleased to find diversity in the photos he captured and the time he took to select the best shots rather than send the thousands of photos taken in the night.

Ben always dresses appropriately and arrives on time. His post event production is done with care, and the provision of an online viewing album in addition to a private file share is a nice touch that I appreciate.

I highly recommend!
