Intimate New York City Elopement at The Groom's UES High School Chapel and Reception at the Luxembourg House

Megan and Chris met in the London— but they both grew up in New York City! So when they got engaged in London, they decided to have a small intimate ceremony with their family and friends back in New York City first then have a bigger celebrating in London after! They chose to have their ceremony at the Chapel at Chris’ High School on the upper east side, have some portraits taken right nearby at Central Park and the ended the night with a light reception at the Luxembourg House.  It was very sweet to celebrate in such a unique space with decades of history and culture. They had envisioned a celebration that felt like a fun and festive house party with their closest family and friends and it very much felt that way!

Destination Wedding in New York City with a couple from the UK

Katy, a florist from the UK wanted to have her destination wedding in New York City.  Philip and her have been to New York City a few times and knew this was going to be the place.  Their families flew out from the UK to come and support the exciting event and shower them with love and encouragement!  It was a sweet, intimate ceremony inside the New York City City Hall, followed by some amazing portraitures throughout New York City.  Katy really loves the gritty urban look of NYC so we tried to incorporate that as much as possible.  We ventured through Soho, the West Village and Chelsea.  Took her to all the places I love to go to as a New York City wedding photographer. Here are some highlights:

Beautiful Elopement Session in Central Park in New York City

Chloe and Phillip had a very intimate and sweet ceremony inside the heart of New York City in Central Park. They traveled from abroad just to get married in NYC! We found a beautiful clearing overlooking the lake and new york city skyline for them to say their vows. Along with just a few family members, they tied the knot and then celebrated! It was such a beautiful day (it almost rained but cleared up by the time we had to head to Central Park!) It could not be any more perfect!! Here are some of the highlights of the day:
