I had the honor of photographing Kyoohee and John in the west village in NYC. They wanted to do their wedding portraits with their best friends; their dogs and it was such a fun experience! They looked stunning in their outfits and the dogs had the most adorable flower collars and bow ties! The whole look was a vibe! We went around the west village, finding the best storefronts and brown stones to capture! Again, I love being a NYC wedding photographer because I get to have so much fun finding these great spots.
Beautiful New York City West Village Wedding Couple Photography Session
Bobo Restaurant Wedding in West Village, New York City
Nancy and Tim now live in Seattle, but wanted to have their wedding in New York City! They used to live in New York and had since moved but most of their wedding was planned while being across the country in Seattle! They utilized and depended on the internet and images to help with the selection of their NYC venue and vendors. They found and fell in love with Bobo, a chic French restaurant in the West Village, New York City.
Nancy and Tim are laid back and cool and have a great eye for design and aesthetics. Even though they were. planning from afar, they came into NYC the week before the wedding and got everything together for their special and gorgeous wedding day. Nancy hand picked her top from BHLDN, a gorgeous lacy piece, and paired it with a simple sleek skirt from Jcrew. Tim looked great in his Jcrew suit — and the two of them looked like they walked right out of a bridal magazine!
We started the day at Stumptown Coffee for some coffee and to give the couple some energy, then spent some time roaming around the west village getting gorgeous portraits of the two. We also found an amazing brownstone with a red door that reminded them of their time in Barcelona (where the two met while studying abroad!!). Afterwards, they had their intimate ceremony in the balcony of the NYC restaurant Bobo, surrounded by family, friends and the soothing songs from a ukulele. It was such a beautiful day to meander around New York City and I was so honored they chose me to be their new york city wedding photographer. I love days like this, exploring new york city, having a wonderful and sweet couple and friends and family to celebrate with!! It was a pretty awesome day. Here are some of my favorite snaps:
Gorgeous New York City West Village Engagement Session
I’m definitely a New Yorker through and through, and I love photographing in this beautiful city. This couple wanted to capture the charming streets of the West Village- which is one of my personal favorite locations! We embarked on a journey to discover some of the neighborhood's most picturesque spots, each corner offering a new opportunity for capturing their love story in all its beauty. Against the backdrop of iconic brownstones and bustling cafes, we immersed ourselves in the vibrant energy of the city. From cozy stoops to leafy parks, each location provided a unique backdrop that perfectly complemented the couple's love.
As we strolled along the cobblestone streets, laughter and conversation filled the air, creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. And what better way to top off our photoshoot adventure than with a sweet treat from Van Leeuwen? With ice cream in hand, we continued our journey, indulging in the simple pleasures of life and creating memories that would last a lifetime.
Through my lens, I sought to capture not just the love between this beautiful couple, but also the spirit of the city that surrounded us. The West Village served as the perfect canvas for their love story, each photograph a testament to the timeless charm and romance of New York City. As the day drew to a close, we bid farewell to the West Village, hearts full of cherished memories and smiles that would linger long after the photoshoot ended. It was a joy and honor to capture the love of this couple in the heart of New York City, a city that will forever hold a special place in their hearts.
