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!

How to Plan a Wedding That Actually Gives You Time With Your Guests

One of the easiest ways for a wedding day to start feeling rushed is when every part of the timeline is scheduled back-to-back. Hair and makeup runs a few minutes late. Someone needs help finding a boutonniere. Your dress takes longer to button than expected. None of these things are a big deal until there’s no extra time built into the schedule.
