A Fun Elopement Day at New York City Hall and A Reception at Il Buco

Mitch and Anna wanted to have a chill but fun-filled day with friends and family! We first began the day at NY City Hall for their appointment for their intimate ceremony. Anna’s dad walked her to the building (so cute!) and let her enter the building with Mitch and I. (Due to the covid pandemic protocols, they could still only have 1 guest enter with them, which was me). After their adorable ceremony, we met up with their family outside City Hall to get some group photographs. Then we all headed to Washington Square Park and grabbed some fun group shots there as well. Afterward, we headed back to the Roxy Hotel to freshen up. Anna changed into her second wedding dress and she looked so beautiful!! We then headed over to Il Buco and celebrated together! It was such an awesome and memorable day!! Here are some of my favorite moments of the day:

Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art Engagement Session in New York City

Linda and Daniel recently moved to NYC and wanted to immortalize their time here by getting married in NYC!  So when we talked about where to do their engagement session, Linda definitely wanted to incorporate the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park! It was great to get some gorgeous shots inside the room of The Temple of Dendur at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. It’s such an iconic new york city spot and a place that had beautiful lighting.  I think the highlight for me on this shoot was meeting the bubble man and having him teach us how to make HUGE bubbles in Central Park!!  It was also really cool to have him create a huge heart bubble to encompass both Linda and Daniel!! Such a cool experience!  I’m glad they chose me to be their new york city wedding photographer! I am also shooting their gorgeous wedding next fall!

A West Village Engagement Session in NYC

Daisy and John live in the West Village and wanted to do a session in their neighborhood.  They took me around to their favorite spots and streets and then to the pier.  It was a great session and these two are so obviously in love :) I had so much fun photographing this couple and we found some amazing and unique spots in the west village, new york city. To be honest, this is one of my favorite locations to do a New York City engagement session because it just gives off that classic NYC vibe. Yet another great session as a new york city wedding photographer! Here are some of my favorite shots:
