What happens when you do a sunrise shoot on a Sunday morning in Manhattan? Nothing. The beautiful emptiness of the city streets is intoxicating. Plus, the light is gorgeous. I had the opportunity to share these quiet moments with Christine and Ted, we photographed around Christine's neighborhood of East Village and her coffee shop down the street. We then drove up to the Cloisters to take the in the views of the Hudson. Excited for their wedding next month in Brooklyn with the always fabulous Jove Meyer. Till then.
brenda & justin / look back
Brenda and Justin always sneaking glances while running down the streets, in the market and through the crowds.
katelyn & kris / in the neighborhood
Some of my favorite weddings are the ones with no fuss, the ones where its just about the people and the emotion of the day. Katelyn and Kris had that idea, just have some fun taking photos, get married, then enjoy the eat and drink. They wanted to get married in their neighborhood of West Village before they jetted off to London for work, so they had their family and friends fly in from around the country to revel in their nuptials. We started at their home and then headed out to their favorite bar, Entwine, for a few snaps and drinks. We ended at Bobo where we met with everyone to lock in their love. So enjoy a view of their neighborhood.
laura & ryan / can't help but smile
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).
