Back before small weddings were a thing Shanaya and Chris got married amongst their closest family and friends in a gorgeous private Garden Terrace at Wythe Hotel in Brooklyn. Their stylish celebration was even featured on OneFabDay and it was certainly well deserved. You can check out all the beautiful details below! But most importantly I love how effortless and laid back their wedding felt. Shanaya and Chris let me get creative with what might seem like a pretty plain backdrop of concrete walls and garage doors before they exchanged their vows inside a cozy candlelit room surrounded by their loved ones.

Thank you for having me and thank you for making intimate weddings cool;)

I can’t believe it’s been a full year since I made my way to Montauk to document this dreamy waterfront celebration of Jensen and Adam! These two got the most gorgeous late October day for their outdoor ceremony at Gurney’s Star Resort and the night ended with some epic dance floor action. What I loved the most about meeting Jensen and Adam is how special their relationships are with friends and family. It was an honor to witness so many emotional moments between everyone.

Finally sharing this special celebration of Ashley and Julia in Brooklyn Historical Society. It was a laid back day exploring Brooklyn with these two and their bridal party followed by a beautiful ceremony set in a library room of the Historical Society building. From the moment I met Ashley and Julia at a coffee shop I felt so connected to their love story and their wedding day turned out to be full of so many touching emotional moments. It was truly a pleasure documenting Ashley and Julia’s love story and reminds me of why I miss weddings so much during this quarantine!

Miriam and James traveled all the way from London to get married in Central Park and celebrate with their closest family and friends in style!

I love a couple who is ready to adventure in some of the most unusual colorful places around NYC on their wedding day! Suzannah and Anders were set on China Town for their wedding day portraits so we made it happen even in crazy traffic and with the street closures nearby:) They celebrated with the closest family and friends at one of my favorite private rooms at Locanda Verde.

One of my favorites from 2019! Chill neighborhood celebration of James and Claire in Astoria at the Bonnie.

I love when an engagement session turns into a little family shoot:) This time around it was Ashley and Julia and their adorable dog Calvin. We started shooting in their home, explored the rooftop with Calvin and finished the session at Fort Greene Park!
