A Sweet Intimate Wedding Photo Session at Brooklyn Bridge Park and on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City

Had the lovely opportunity to photograph this beautiful couple, Kira and Mikhail.  They are moving back to Russia soon and wanted to get married in New York City and get some beautiful photos of the city before departing.  With her custom painted high heels, and a really cute and simple dress, Kira was beautiful as we photographed throughout New York City!  We began the day in Soho then made our way down to Brooklyn.  It was a gorgeous day and we got some amazing shots! I love shooting these intimate weddings and moments to allow people to commemorate their time in New York City! Again, another reason why I love being a New York City Wedding Photographer

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:

Hudson Valley New York Wedding with Self Brewed Craft Beers

On a gorgeous March morning, I drove up to Hudson Valley, NY (about a 2 hour drive from New York City) to witness the wedding of Angela and Josh. The officiant shared a very humorous story about their first meeting. (I am still unsure if this is 100% truth, but sounds true enough to me!) Both Josh and Angela worked at a High School, Josh as a music teacher (and moonlights as a bassist in a band) and Angela (a talented painter and a woman with great taste in everything (including her photographer- haha), as the "new girl" in the administration office. Josh walks into the office, probably in need of something, sees Angela... and then walks straight out. In short, he was probably blown away by her beauty. Few months later, they play together on the school softball team and ta-da, began their relationship. They both live in Brooklyn but wanted to have their wedding in Hudson Valley since it’s a gorgeous and quaint city away from New York City! Here are some highlights of their wedding day! :)

Times Square, Grand Central Station and Brooklyn Bridge Photos in this New York City Engagement Session

Meet Tiffannie and John!  Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, Tiffannie and John have been preparing for their big day by traveling the world and getting their wedding and engagement sessions done.  Having last been in Paris, France, they knew the next place they wanted to shoot in was the Big Apple- getting their engagement photos done in New York City!!  So they called me, their New York City Wedding and Engagement Photographer, and wanted to get the most "New York" spots they could.  We decided on doing their NYC engagement session at Times Square, Grand Central Station and finally at Brooklyn's finest, the Brooklyn Bridge!  It was an extremely cold day (as following the tradition of the NYC 2014 Winter Polar Vortex year) and Tiffannie was a super-trooper, her final words for the shoot (even though she was freezing on the top of the bridge was), "It's all worth it!!!"  Such an encouragement!!! :) Here are some of my favorite shots from their engagement session shoot that tooks us all over New York City!! I’m so thankful to be a New York City wedding and engagement photographer!
