An Intimate Backyard Ceremony and Reception at a Cozy Brooklyn Resturant in New York City

Kelly & Corey are good friends of mine— so I was really excited to photograph their wedding! They had a beautiful and intimate ceremony in the backyard of this adorable Brooklyn Restaurant called Milk & Roses. It was really fitting because books lined the walls of the restaurant - and if you know Kelly- she LOVES reading :D They got ready at the Franklin Guest House Hotel with Beauty By Jess Lee, and Kelly wore this beautiful dress from BHLDN. We did their first look in the gritty streets of Brooklyn and finally ended the night where their hearts truly belong- Queens! We got some amazing sunset shots by the Globe in Flushing Meadows Park then joined our friends for more celebrations! Here are some of my favorite shots of the day!

A "Friends" Inspired Engagement Session at the High Line and Washington Square Park with Katie & Amarveer

Katie & Amarveer wanted to do their engagement photos at the High Line in Chelsea, New York City. They wanted the rich urban vibes of the High Line and get some cool New York City street views as well. After those classic shots, they had a few of their best friends meet them at Washington Square Park and recreate some classic “Friends” NYC poses! (I figured it was perfect timing to blog this during the FRIENDS 25th anniversary year!!!) We took a little dip at the Washington Square Park water fountain (which yes, diehard fans, that’s not exactly where they filmed the opening of Friends BUT it SHOULD have been! LOL) and dancing with some NYC pigeons. O_O! It was a lot of fun working with them and their awesome group of friends and this was a engagement session/friend session to remember!

The Green Building Wedding in Brooklyn New York City

Sunny and John really wanted their wedding to be a FUN and HUGE party with their friends and family.  They rented out the Green Building in Gowanus, Brooklyn — and it was definitely the place to do it!  It was a gorgeous space to have their ceremony and then dance the night away.  At one point, Sunny's family broke out in a choreographed dance to surprise her and John!  It was seriously amazing. I love shooting Brooklyn weddings and being able to get that gritty industrial and urban look of New York City. It’s always a fun time to shoot New York City weddings and make beautiful photographs! Here are some of the highlights of the day:
