New York wedding

Tiffany + Nick // FEAST at Round Hill

in ,

Tiffany and Nick were married at the gorgeous Hudson Valley venue, FEAST at Round Hill. Tiffany and I have known each other since high school; she's a fierce, funny, fantastic actress who I could not imagine a better partner for than Nick. Their wedding day was full of wonderful words, written in books and vows, laughter,  and all the joy that makes photographing a celebration like the love of these two so special. Congratulations! 

Thank you to the wonderful wedding team!

Ben + Tyler // New York City

in ,

Ben and Tyler were married in a glorious music filled ceremony in St. James' Church in Manhattan. This was my second time photographing at St. James', and it was wonderful returning to a joyful, welcoming community who celebrated the love of Ben and Tyler with some of the most beautiful choral music I have ever heard. After the ceremony, the wedding party and guests headed to the Dumbo Spot in Brooklyn for the reception, but not before popping some bubbly on the subway platform! Ben and Tyler, thank you! I am grateful to have been a part of your day. 

Thank you to the wedding team that made Ben and Tyler's day happen!

Amanda + Matt // Spillian

in ,

The leaves were golden and the air was crisp when Amanda and Matt were married at Spillian, a private lodge tucked away in the Catskills region of Upstate New York. The warm and inviting estate, filled with beautifully kept antiques, was the perfect location to celebrate the union of this kind and authentic couple.

Gorgeous jazz music, hand picked bottle vases, vibrant floral arrangements, and delicious Mexican cuisine were some of the unique elements, which created a truly special day. Guests were invited to stay the weekend, filling the wrap around porch of Spillian with laughter and loved ones. What a wonderful way to celebrate a life together!

Congratulations, you two. I am grateful to have been a part of your day. 

Thank you to the entire wedding team!

Rachel + John // Red Maple Vineyard

in ,

Rachel and John were married in early June at Red Maple Vineyard, an incredible venue in West Park, New York. Rustic and elegant, with stunning views of the Hudson Valley, this picturesque place holds up even in the rain, which it did plenty of on their wedding day! That is right up until the moment they had their first look.

As the sun broke through the clouds, the warm weather quickly became a reminder of everything friends and family cherish about this fantastic couple. Their kind and inviting nature, ease with one another, and ability to calm each other while making the other laugh, are things I enjoyed most about capturing their love. Congratulations, you two! I am grateful to have been a part of your day. Rain or sun ;)

Thank you to the entire wedding team!

Ellie + Patrick // Long Island, NY

in ,

Ellie and Patrick were married at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Shelter Rock in Manhasset, New York. Loved ones gathered two days after Christmas for a ceremony filled with heartfelt vows, followed by a celebration at Larkfield. What I loved most about this wedding day was how the couple honored aspects of their past and present which brought them together. This included not only a music filled ceremony, but shades of turquoise; a tribute to Ellie's home state of New Mexico. Also, look for the chili pepper in the bride's bouquet and on the reception tables! 

Thank you to the entire wedding team!

Lauren + Andrew // New York City

in ,

Every wedding I have the privilege of capturing is unique, which is one of the many reasons I love the work that I do. Lauren and Andrew were married in an intimate ceremony at St. James' Church in Manhattan, New York. A place near and dear to their heart, St. James' Church provided not only a meaningful, but stunning background for their commitment to one another. To celebrate their love, Lauren and Andrew headed to Dumbo Spot in Brooklyn to not only dance the night away but eat pizza with family and friends! What I loved most about their wedding day was that the details were focused on loved ones. I couldn't think of a better way to start a life together. Congratulations you two!

Jessica + Rob // The Crescent Beach Club

in ,

I first met Jessica and Rob when I was asked by Rob to capture his marriage proposal. The big moment occurred during a snowy morning in Fort Greene, Brooklyn with a surprise appearance by friends and fifteen french bulldogs! Since I'm sure you're now curious about the details of this adorable proposal, you should check out this article by Huffington Post Weddings which featured the event and even included two photos of mine! 

There is no denying the connection between this vibrant couple. It was an honor to photograph their wedding day, which included many personal, creative details such as a hand drawn record of their guests, and the incorporation of their parents' wedding photos. Together, these two tore up the dance floor, and created a celebration I know them, as well as friends and family will cherish forever. Many thanks to The Crescent Beach Club and second photographer Ruby Tull for seamlessly bringing all aspects of the day together. Congratulations Jessica and Rob! 

Lisha + Caldwell // Chappaqua, NY

in ,

Lisha and Caldwell were married at a family home in stunning Chappaqua, New York. It was a perfect way to begin the Fall season, with gorgeous surroundings, and loved ones who travelled near and far to celebrate (with plenty of dancing on the tennis court). Full of personal touches, natural details, and heartfelt sentiments, it was a wonderful wedding day for all, including myself, who has known Lisha since childhood. I feel incredibly grateful to have been a part of the day, and know there is nothing but a beautiful future in store for this creative, kind couple. Congratulations!!

Thank you, as always, to the wonderful wedding team!
