Beautiful Engagement Session in Downtown Manhattan and Dumbo, Brooklyn Bridge Park

Olivia and Andrew met in New York City and had their first apartment together in the Lower East Side before moving to Brooklyn.. and soon they would be packing up and moving cross country to LA, California! So to commemorate their time in NYC, they decided to have their engagement session done in their two neighborhoods! We began over by Cooper Square and then headed over to Dumbo! I loved being able to walk around these two creative neighborhoods and photograph their love! Featuring my favorite pit-stop: PIZZA, here are some of my favorite highlights from our session:

Vibrant and Fun Wedding at Rule of Thirds in Brooklyn, NY

I recently had the pleasure of capturing a truly breathtaking wedding at an amazing venue called the Rule of Thirds, located in the vibrant city of Brooklyn, New York. This wedding was filled with gorgeous moments, sweetness, and heaps of fun!

To kickstart the wedding day, the lovely couple got ready at the Coda Hotel, which provided a cozy and comfortable environment. As a photographer, being able to document those special behind-the-scenes moments was an absolute delight. There's something truly magical about capturing the excitement and anticipation as the bride and groom prepare for their big day.

As we ventured out into the vibrant neighborhood of Williamsburg, the photo session became even more enjoyable. The couple radiated happiness and their love for each other was simply contagious. Exploring the streets of Williamsburg provided a fantastic backdrop for the photos, adding an edgy and unique vibe to the shoot. But let's not forget about the highlight of the day: the wedding itself at the Rule of Thirds. Not only was the venue stunning, but the food was equally amazing. The combination of delectable dishes and a vibrant atmosphere created an unforgettable experience for all the guests.

The wedding had a classic and classy feel, but what truly made it stand out was the fun and excitement that filled the air. From the heartfelt speeches to the energetic dancing, it was clear that everyone was having a fantastic time, creating memories that would last a lifetime.

As a photographer, it was a privilege to capture all these beautiful moments and emotions. My goal was to document not only the wedding itself but also the vibrant and lively personalities of the couple and their guests. It's always an honor to be able to freeze these precious moments in time and create a visual story that reflects the love, excitement, and joy of the day.

All in all, this wedding was a perfect blend of elegance, vibrancy, and pure excitement. It was a truly unique and fun celebration of love, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have been a part of it.

Sunset Brooklyn Intimate ELOPEMENT WEDDING Ceremony at Brooklyn Terminal Park in New York City with Joan and Chris

Joan and Chris live in the Sunset neighborhood in Brooklyn, NYC, and decided to have an intimate little ceremony at Brooklyn Terminal Park with close family. Originally they were planning to get married on one of the Caribbean islands but because of this year’s pandemic- traveling would be out of the question. - things had to be a little different! Instead, they decided to pick their neighborhood park to host their wedding ceremony! We first got some photos at this cute abandoned factory that had SUNSET written on it’s windows (super cool!!) and then wandered over to the Brooklyn Army Terminal (where Chris told me they filmed parts of JOKER at!) and got some cool shots inside and around the area. Afterwards we met up with the family at Brooklyn Terminal Park at the tip of the pier; and with an amazing view of the New York City skyline, they said their vows and promised themselves to each other. It was so sweet! I love these types of days, photos, family and heartfelt vows are really what make the day so special!!!

Sweet Couple Photography Session in Brooklyn Bridge Park and Pizza!

Brittany and Matthew were suppose to have their wedding in Sept of 2020 (the year of Covid…) but due to the circumstances they of course had to make some changes. They instead got married via new york city hall and then decided to have a couple session with me in Brooklyn Bridge Park! It was such a gorgeous night. Perfect with a beautiful sunset behind the amazing view of the New York City skyline and the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. We hit up Oddfellows for some ice cream and then ended the night with delicious pizza in front of the Manhattan Bridge view!
