Surprise 40th Birthday Party and Military Promotion, Dyker Heights
Nadiym hosted a stylish and festive surprise 40th birthday party for his wife at the Fort Hamilton military base community club, where he also received a military rank promotion, making it a double-celebration, that was attended by dozens of their friends and family. Our 4-hour long event session captured the decor/details, food & drinks, DJ and dancing, cake-cutting, and posed group shots against a custom backdrop.
Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):
