501 Union Wedding in Brooklyn in New York City

Jill and Justin, proud Brooklynites, avid marathon runners, and dedicated Knicks fans, selected 501 Union as the reception for their wedding. Drawn to its stunning ambiance that perfectly showcased their beloved neighborhood, they wanted the vibe to reflect their personalities. The day was a spectacular celebration of love and community, with both families gathering from near and far to witness their heartfelt union. It was an honor for me to capture these precious moments as a New York City wedding photographer, and here are a selection of my favorite shots from their unforgettable day!

A Queens City Hall, New York City Elopement

My dear friends, Sophia & Ryan currently live in LA, California- but wanted to come back to New York City (Sophia’s hometown) to get married so that her grandma could witness the great moment! They got ready together at the Standard Hotel - East Village then headed over to the Queens (represent!) County Courthouse to get married! Yes, we even took a photo with the 7 train :O) The ceremony was sweet and they were surrounded by their family and close friends and it was a honor and quite an adventure to witness and capture it all!! It was a sweet New York City elopement that was a precursor to their LA Wedding in the following year. Here are some highlights from the day!!

West Village and Balloon Saloon Engagement Session

I had SUCH a fun time with these two, wandering the west village and Tribeca in New York City and trying to tame a dog-balloon! (I named him ROGER, and I tried to sneak him into Haiti with me... but that was a bust..) I loved how carefree these two were and willing to have fun with me in strange little creative spaces. We wandered around and even found a HUGE PIZZA BALLOON. You can never go wrong with PIZZA in NEW YORK CITY! It was so awesome to be able to be their New York City wedding photographer and capture these amazing and funny moments! I cannot wait to shoot their new york city wedding in a few months!

Here are some of my favorite shots:

A Fox Hollow Wedding in Long Island, New York

I had such a blast photographing this wedding.  Not only were Jenny and Tim super chill and fun to be around... but their bridal party was a hot party.  It's also so refreshing to work with animated, silly and fun-loving bridal party, because it really does add a fun spice to the wedding day photos.  I love Jenny's spirit and aesthetics and vision for her wedding day!  Her center pieces were inspired from the disney movie, "UP" and um...personalized NIKE ID sneakers as bridal party gifts??!! Uh YEAH......!!! It was a beautiful wedding on Long Island and it was nice to get away from New York City.  Here are some of my favorite shots from the day:
