A New York City Wedding at Snug Harbor Cultural Center

The day couldn't be any more perfect.  It's been such a rainy Summer, and yet Christy and Dan's wedding day was absolutely perfect!  I was really excited to be a part of this wedding... I've seen this wedding from the very start; so to see it come into fruition; it was a huge joy for me!  Christy had been showing me all her ideas since day 1 and just blowing me away with some of the amazing DIY projects she made.  From the hand-made veil that her mother made for her, to every single center piece item, to the wedding favors, the programs- just about everything at this wedding was meticulously created. The venue was also gorgeous, with high ceilings that flooded the room with natural light.  Paired with the simple and elegant center pieces, it was beautiful.  Christy also got Dan a surprise Groom's Cake as well!! The cake was decorated with the Yankees logos and bordered by the New York City skyline- which meant a lot to Dan (who is a die-hard yankee fan).  We started the day in Brooklyn, then they had their ceremony and reception at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and it was beautiful! It’s so great to find these hidden gems when you’re having a New York City Wedding! Everything was so sweet, and the wedding was a lot of fun!!!!  It was really great being able to see so many old faces and celebrate.

 Here are some highlights:

Gorgeous Pennsylvania Outdoor Vineyard Wedding

Carolyn is a friend of mine from RIT! (SpiRIT!) We both studied Advertising Photography together, so when she was picking out her photographer... she was picky. But she picked me!! And I was so honored and excited to photograph her day! The ceremony was at this beautiful winery just outside of Erwinna, PA. It was an outdoor ceremony during sunset and was followed with a quaint reception with close friends and family. I was so happy to be a part of the day! It’s always nice to travel outside of new york city even though I’m a new york city wedding photographer!

Here are some of my favorite shots from the day:

New Rochelle Wedding in Upper New York

I love weddings with beautiful sea views! Jing and Margaret chose to have their wedding outdoors on a roof that had a great view of the sea. The day was perfect, sunny and warm, and Jing definitely had to prepare and pass a lot of tests in order to enter the bride's family's home to pick her up so he could marry her! (Chinese traditions!) Margaret definitely went all out with the center pieces- Monopoly themed! Each table was a different part of town.. it was so cool! It was such a great day to be a part of and I wish them the best!! I was also lucky enough to photograph their engagement session in New York City in Central Park. Honored to have been their new york city wedding photographer!

A New York City Flushing Town Hall Wedding

Tiffany and Geoffrey are such a fun couple!  They were so cute, so loving and hospitable.  Their wedding was held at Flushing Town Hall in New York City.  It is a historical landmark, but now serves as a theater, museum and gallery space.   There was a really nice outdoor backyard space that was masked by gates filled with vines.  Tiffany had on this beautiful red dress that was both modern yet classic- and was a nod to her Chinese culture and heritage. It worked perfectly with the venue and space.  It was really a treat to photograph.  Tiffany made all the decor herself and even had homemade jam as wedding favors! It was amazing! It was so beautiful to document this diverse and sweet wedding that was a mix of traditional chinese customs and american customs! Love being a New York City Wedding photographer!!
