Tribeca Rooftop Wedding : New York, NY
Suhasini & Dean hosted their wedding at Tribeca Rooftop in Lower Manhattan, New York, NY in Spring.
There are a handful of venues in the city that there is truly nothing else like. I can’t think of anything quite like Tribeca Rooftop. To have this much roof space, this much interior space, excellent food, huge dance floor, multiple bars… etc etc.. that’s pretty special. Guests rise from street level up to the roof deck for ceremonies completely encircled by city views. A mediterranean inspired cocktail hour keeps everyone fed and hydrated as the sun slides down towards the horizon. From here, guests descend the staircase into the event space which sits beneath a glass roof and two endless walls of ceiling height windows. I look forward to returning here 3 times this season!
This was another one of those weddings where I just love to catch couples who have made it through all the major formalities of the wedding day and finally get to hang out as normal. I think the last picture of this set is my favorite.

The Milling Room Wedding : New York, NY
Rachel & Jake were married at The Milling Room on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
Although I’ve since moved, I still get the “home” pangs when I’m on the UWS so when I was asked to photograph this Milling Room wedding, I was thrilled. I’m seeing more and more couples opt for a wedding that is more of a dressed up slice of every day life. Stepping into a restaurant space feels familiar, approachable and comfortable. And, you also get the benefit of amazing food and restaurant service. The Milling Room’s proximity to Central Park made that an easy choice for portraits. After saying their vows and a few toasts, they were able to spend time at each table hanging out with friends and family. Enjoy this sophisticated slice of Rachel & Jake’s life.

Roundhouse Wedding : Anna & Zach : Beacon, NY
Anna & Zach held their wedding at The Roundhouse in Beacon, NY up in the Hudson Valley this past Spring.
Writing this in July, it feels as though I photographed this wedding a few weeks ago. It’s crazy how quickly the year flies by! The Roundhouse was in in top form looking beautiful just as the first signs of Spring were emerging. Anna & Zach adorned the space with bright yellow forsythia which was striking against the rustic, industrial vibe of The Roundhouse.

New York Athletic Club Wedding : New York, NY
Katie & Chris hosted their Spring wedding at the New York Athletic Club on Central Park South in New York, NY.
A wedding at NYAC is always beautiful and this one was especially with jaw drop inducing cherry blossoms brought in for the reception. These branches were reaching up into the heavens they were so tall. Very impressive.
We walked along the 72nd St traverse of Central Park to take photos near Bethesda Terrace & Fountain before hopping in a vintage Rolls Royce to make the short trip over to The Church of the Blessed Sacrament.

Maritime Parc Wedding : Jersey City, NJ
Kaitlyn & Javier were married in Jersey City at St Mary of the Immaculate Conception followed by dinner and dancing at Maritime Parc in Liberty State Park.
Kicking off my 2024 season in the best way, I had a truly fun time photographing this wedding celebration in March. As the summer changes in New York I’m seeing my season shift somewhat towards an earlier start in Spring and later wind down in the winter time. It was cool but not frigid on this day allowing for plenty of outdoor photos. As sometimes happens at weddings, a slight delay in the form of a twice as long as anticipated ceremony didn’t trip us up giving us an opportunity to take some photos in the street and around Liberty State Park before Kaitlyn & Javier made their way inside to party with friends and family.
We began the day with some getting ready photos at the lovely Canopy by Hilton Hotel Jersey City before making the short walk to the church. Brit Pooler of “Plan with BP” kept us all on target making for a stress free day. More and more I’m seeing an informal approach to a wedding party and on this day friends of Kaitlyn and Javier joined towards the end of getting ready for a toast. I really like this approach.
At the wedding reception Kaitlyn & Javier kept me around after the last dance to photograph their “hora loca” which really took things up a notch. Kaitlyn changed into a literally electric dress and all the guests were outfitted with all sorts of glow in the dark paraphernalia. It was a good time.
