London Anniversary Session with Iconic Views

As a NYC-based wedding and portrait photographer, I’ve been lucky enough to travel all over capturing couples in places that are meaningful to them. For Elaine and Daniel, their anniversary session took us to London, specifically, the heart of the city near Westminster Bridge, with views of Big Ben, the London Eye, and the Palace of Westminster.

Elaine and Daniel were visiting London to see Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, and wanted to celebrate their anniversary with portraits. We timed our shoot to take full advantage of golden hour, and it did not disappoint. The way the light bounced off the River Thames and wrapped around them as we wandered near the bridge was pure magic. There’s something so romantic about photographing couples in cities with deep history. The architecture and vibes are always amazing!

I’ve photographed Elaine and Daniel in several different destinations over the years, and every session feels like a new adventure with old friends. Thank you for trusting me to capture this special season for you!

The Benefits of Having Your Photographer at Your Welcome Dinner

Your wedding day might be the main event, but the celebrations often begin long before you walk down the aisle. Whether you're hosting a welcome dinner, rehearsal dinner, or a casual gathering with your closest friends and family, these events are such a meaningful part of your wedding weekend.

As a wedding photographer, I love when couples choose to include photography coverage for their welcome dinner. It's an opportunity to document a different side of the celebration, spend more time with the people who matter most, and create a more complete collection of memories from the weekend.

The Wedding Details Guests Actually Notice

When planning a wedding, it's easy to spend hours deciding on everything from linens to invitations. But while every detail contributes to your celebration, your guests aren't necessarily noticing the same things you are.

As a New York City wedding photographer, I've seen how certain details can make a lasting impression. Here are a few things your guests are most likely to notice and remember.

Wedding Photography Details Couples Often Forget to Plan For

When planning your wedding, it's easy to focus on the bigger decisions. Choosing your venue, finding your vendors, and finalizing your timeline tend to take priority. But there are a few smaller photography details that can make a significant difference in how your wedding day is documented.

As a New York wedding photographer, I've found that a little preparation goes a long way. Here are a few things worth considering before your wedding day arrives.

How to Choose the Best NYC Wedding Photo Locations for Your Wedding Day

One of the best things about getting married in New York City is having so many options for your wedding photos. You can go from classic architecture and busy city streets to waterfront views and greenery without ever really leaving the city. But having endless options doesn’t mean you need to fit as many locations as possible into your wedding day. When I’m helping my couples plan portraits, I’m thinking about what will photograph beautifully, but I’m also thinking about your timeline, travel, lighting, and how much time you actually want to spend away from your guests.
