When they say smile's are infectious, they must've been talking about Laura and Ryan. Have a great 2015 everyone.
cynthia & eli / away we go
What happens when you put together a dope couple with a dope venue? You get a dope wedding. Cynthia and Eli's love for each other is apparent in every look and glance and it was my pleasure to capture it all. It also doesn't hurt that Refinery29 featured them as one of five of the best NYC weddings of 2014 and that they were also featured on Brooklyn Bride. With an all star team Brooklyn team of Naturally Delicious, August Sage & Violet, Morgan Gates, and Styles on B under the roof of 501 Union, I knew it was going to be just that. A big thanks to Silvia Foz for manning the 2nd camera and my favorite sprite of a videographer, Courtney of Love + Brain Films for capturing the moving love (see her highlight reel at the end of the post).
jessie & mike / speaking of
What happens when you have laryngitis on your wedding day? You exude your emotions to your family, friends and husband-to-be with everything but your voice. While Jessie may have had a hard time vocalizing herself, you wouldn't even be able to tell through her smile. Thanks to Shannon Sturgis for being alongside me as well as Danielle and Will of Danfredo Photo + Films for making a dope video, which you can see at the end of the post. Also, a big thanks to Wedding Party for featuring Jessie and Mike's nuptials, check out their blog for more photos and details as well as their app for all your wedding day needs.
esti & patrick / a match made
I had met Esti and Patrick when I officially moved to New York back in 2011 via my old roommate (miss you Ha Na!) and I instantly knew they were an amazing couple and even better friends. Esti is the sweetest gal I've ever met and Patrick is one of the funniest dudes, you can't not hang out with them without dying laughing. So they'll be getting married next month and sadly I won't be able to attend (as I have a wedding in Los Angeles) but I thought what better present then to do an engagement shoot? So we did what we normally do, walk around Brooklyn and go to the bar but this time with camera in hand.
sarina & daniel / kindred
I'm always honored when other photographers ask me to capture their special moments and doing so for Sarina and Daniel was no exception. They were visiting New York from California to photograph a wedding of their own so we had an opportunity to work together. I have to thank Instagram for helping long last family reunite (he is a Cruz after all), so thank you social media. You work wonders.
