Wythe Hotel Wedding Prep and Dumbo Loft Wedding in Brooklyn, New York City

Christina and Brandon had such an amazing wedding day. They began their day at the Wythe Hotel and then did their wedding photos at Brooklyn Bridge Park with Jane’s Carousel in their immediate backdrop. They then had their wedding at the  Dumbo Loft -which is an amazing raw space that was beautifully envisioned and adorned by Christina and her amazingly talented friend, Becky!  (Well Spring Writes)  It was a gorgeous and touching ceremony, full of laughter, supportive friends and Dinosaur BBQ.  <3  Good times of crazy dancing, a donut piñata; mobbed and attacked by the bachelors; and cigars to end the night.  I’m always a fan of a raw wedding space where the couples get to choose what they want exactly at their wedding. There’s really no place like that except in Brooklyn! I am so thankful they chose me to capture their beautiful memories as their new york city wedding photographer! Nothing can top this.

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 Snowy New York City Wedding Proposal in Long Island City Gantry State Park

Andrew had been planning his proposal to Stella for a few weeks. He had chosen the location, had the ring, had the plan and was ready to go! But never would he had thought that it would snow the day before the proposal. The ground was full of fresh snow and another storm was rolling in soon... so he knew he had to move quick. Andrew put together the final touches on the scrapbook he made for Stella and practiced the song that he would sing to accompany her as she looked through the book. He was going to sing about their 12 dates, but to the tune of "The 12 Days of Christmas". It was really a sweet!! We all huddled together, a group of his friends and I, hiding in the bathroom nearby the spot where he would propose overlooking the New York City Skyline at Gantry State Park. His friends cracked jokes, calmed him down and encouraged him about his exciting future with Stella. It was a lot of fun!! Then Andrew got the call, Stella was on her way to meet him! So Andrew hurried over and the show began...

It was so touching to see them get engaged and also have their backdrop with friends, family and New York City! Afterwards they went to go celebrate :D

A New York City Engagement Photography Session

We wanted to try something a little different.  This was a really fun shoot, we tried to find a good mixture for using my stop-motion animations to create an editorial photoshoot that told the story of Ester & Stephen's relationship.  They're a very relaxed couple who really love being together, whether its studying, napping, having picnics or eating together.. when they're together- things are happy :)

So when we designed this shoot, we wanted to give it somewhat of a story of "A day with Stephen & Ester". Enjoy! (I also added a new trick, after a previous client sent me this link: http://mashable.com/2014/02/24/3d-gifs/?utm_cid=mash-com-fb-main-link - which are gifs that are made "3D" by just adding two extra white lines.. so I wanted to give it a go)

We had a lot of fun at a local park in Queens, and were able to get some amazing photos and gifs that encapsulate this couple and their time in New York City!
