Beautiful and Elegant New York City Elopement in Central Park

Jerry and Emily's love story unfolded against the iconic backdrop of Central Park, marking the beginning of their beautiful and elegant New York City elopement. As a seasoned wedding and elopement photographer, I had the privilege of capturing every moment of their special day amidst the timeless allure of the city that never sleeps.

Theirs was an intimate ceremony, held in the shadow of the majestic Bethesda Fountain, surrounded by the verdant beauty of Central Park. With only a select few family members in attendance, they exchanged vows that echoed through the tranquil oasis, each word a testament to their enduring love and commitment.

Prior to their ceremony, Jerry and Emily prepared for their momentous occasion at the luxurious 1 Hotel, where the serene ambiance of Central Park provided the perfect backdrop for their prelude to matrimony. As they made their way through the park, anticipation and excitement filled the air, their steps guided by the promise of a lifetime of happiness together.

With my lens poised to capture every cherished moment, Jerry and Emily embarked on a journey that would forever bind their hearts as one. Against the backdrop of New York City's skyline, they exchanged vows that resonated with sincerity and devotion, their love a beacon of hope amidst the bustling energy of the metropolis.

Their elopement was not merely a celebration of their union, but a tribute to the enduring romance of Central Park and the indomitable spirit of New York City. Through my lens, I had the honor of immortalizing their love story, a timeless tale of two souls finding solace and joy in each other's embrace amidst the urban landscape.

Despi and Emil decided to get married in New York City and have that dream New York City intimate elopement!  They both are from Greece and planned a vacation to NYC, so they thought, "why not also get married here!?"  They set up an appointment at the Greece Consulate and had an intimate ceremony with a few close friends and facetimed their family right after.  It was a really sweet moment! They had a room at the Gramercy Park Hotel, so we got some fun photographs with the quirky decor and then some more photographs at Central Park.  Despi and Emil were a upbeat and wanted to encapsulate their elopement in New York City in a fun way! I was so honored they chose me to be their new york city wedding photographer! Here are some of my favorite shots from the day:

Destination Wedding in New York City with a couple from the UK

Katy, a florist from the UK wanted to have her destination wedding in New York City.  Philip and her have been to New York City a few times and knew this was going to be the place.  Their families flew out from the UK to come and support the exciting event and shower them with love and encouragement!  It was a sweet, intimate ceremony inside the New York City City Hall, followed by some amazing portraitures throughout New York City.  Katy really loves the gritty urban look of NYC so we tried to incorporate that as much as possible.  We ventured through Soho, the West Village and Chelsea.  Took her to all the places I love to go to as a New York City wedding photographer. Here are some highlights:
