New York Portrait and Wedding Photographer Joe Rumore bio picture

Welcome to my new blog site!

As a New Yorker all his life, Joe Rumore has always loved the timeless value of the still image. He began his career in broadcast television, working on various documentary programs for PBS and then in later years in TV news programs. That previous career path of documentary and journalism parlayed into the photographer he is today.

Joe has a passion for the art of wedding photography. He strives to visually create a story of your wedding in a more realistic, emotional and artistic way.

Joe’s inspiration comes from all of the heart-felt moments that take place throughout a wedding day. He loves to capture the romance, playfulness, and unspoken connection between couples.  He feels that images are often most beautiful and emotional when they are captured naturally, as they happen.

Patricia + Rob: Married!

Friday, October 17, 2008 Weddings

Patricia and Rob didn’t let tropical storm Hanna get in their way! Despite monsoon conditions, spirits were keep high. We were sooo lucky to catch a break in the weather, so they had a chance to get some great images outside. Since it was to be somewhat dark after the ceremony, they planned to see each other for the first time a few hours before, allowing us to take some great portraits and family photos.

Patricia was just stunning – and so happy to be getting married! I love this shot… very old-time Hollywood!

Their first look at each other… The weather held out long enough for them to see each other for the first time… and get some awesome portraits!

There’s nothing like a 10-piece band to keep the party going!
