Everything about this wedding was so adorable!! Their venue, the Mohawk House was amazing! It was a cute space with a western american flare. Never knew such an adorable space existed in New Jersey! I mean I LOVE New York City and New York City Weddings, but it’s always so nice to get out of my typical space and see what’s beyond!! Behind the space, there was an beautiful view of mountains. It was perfect. Tons of gorgeous daylight and had a very hip decor. I love Jane and Ki Won- they are such an amazing and hospitable couple. The wedding started with a ton of rain in the morning.. but the moment we got to the pier to do their first look, the sky cleared- it was a HUGE blessing. We were able to get amazing photographs!! The wedding ceremony was very touching and the people and family they had surrounding them really lit up the reception. It was beautiful to be a part of such a diverse and beautiful group of people. Maybe I should now say, I love being a New York and New Jersey Wedding photographer - ahahah!! Here are just some highlights from the big day:
A Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Castle Wedding
Ruth and Blake definitely wanted everyone to have a great time at their wedding. From have the bar serving their signature mixed drink to their personalized cozies, it was clear that a party was in tow. Another great love of theirs is their dogs, which they included into the wedding! I got to meet their little puppies and photograph them as part of their bridal party. The wedding venue was a gorgeous castle out in Philly- very different from my usual New York City Weddings- and about an hour prior to their wedding, it was raining like crazy- however RIGHT when it was time to begin their outdoor ceremony-- the skies cleared and their ceremony was beautiful! It was definitely a miraculous occurrence and a blessing for their beautiful day! Here are some of my favorite shots:
A New York City Central Park and Upper West Side Engagement Photography Session
Meet Teresa and Lam! They flew all the way from LA, California to work with me on an engagement session in the great New York City!! It was really awesome-- I FOUND THE BUBBLE MAN in Central Park and we were able to work with them for some really cool shots! It was a very happy moment for me as a New York City Wedding photographer. I've always wanted to catch him in action during one of my shoots- and I finally did. It was really great working with Teresa and Lam- they were both so chill and fun to work with! After our time in Central Park, we went to Magnolia’s Bakery on the Upper West side of New York City to grab a small snack and finish up there.
Here are my favorites from the session:
New York City Hall Intimate Wedding and Elopement
Diana and Ed are having their huge wedding celebration in November... but before all of that glitz, Diana wanted to do something special for herself and Ed. Knowing that the wedding day was going to be hectic and filled with hosting guests and family... she decided to get hitched at the New York City Hall Wedding with Ed. It was such a great idea, and definitely stripped down all the craziness of a wedding to a moment where the two could really experience the moment with each other fully. It’s always nice to have a quiet elopement, and intimate wedding to share their vows together inside the New York City Hall. These two are super crazy and fun to be around, and these photos really encapsulate their personalities and wit. Enjoy!!
