Green Building Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Jenah & Joe
I knew we were the perfect fit from our first phone call. They both work for non-profits in the city- Joe is in environmental engineering, and Jenah is a screenwriter. Their friends call them the “King & Queen of South Slope.” They’re all about community. “We want to live our lives not just ‘doing no harm’ but leave it a better place for the people around us.”
Jersey City Elopement - Jersey City Hall - Danny & Rob
Danny & Rob originally had their wedding planned for October 2020, and ended up postponing due to COVID. So when I got an email from them in September telling me they were planning on eloping at city hall in just a couple weeks, and was I available, I responded with a resounding YES, LET'S DO THIS! Danny & Rob live together in Downtown Jersey City. They’re both creatives- Danny’s a vocalist, and Rob loves architecture/design. I teased Danny saying he should try to sing at the ceremony- but he didn’t want to steal the show :P
Brooklyn Botanic Garden Wedding - Alyson & Jason
When Alyson & Jason booked me we only lived a couple blocks away from each other, but they actually found my work via Instagram- we were destined to meet either way! We did their engagement session in their apartment, had a small church wedding in 2020, and finally their big reception with all their friends and extended families this year in the Palm House at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Prospect Park & DUMBO Engagement Session - Brooklyn, NY - Sam & Dan
Sam & Dan had their engagement session at Prospect Park & Dumbo in Brooklyn. We started a little late but they still wanted to try to fit in both locations, so we went for it! The sun was setting as we drove to Dumbo from the park, so we were literally chasing the light. (Sam was brave and got changed in the back of my little Volkswagen Beetle while I was driving down Flatbush Ave!) I have to admit- that was a first!
Jane's Carousel Wedding - DUMBO Brooklyn, NY - Alison & Jason
Alison & Jason had their wedding reception at the vintage, iconic Jane’s Carousel in Brooklyn Bridge Park in DUMBO. Theirs was not your typical wedding- they scrapped formalities they didn’t need, and added new ones in the most thoughtful, intentional way.
Williamsburg Engagement Session - Brooklyn, NY - Rohan & Joe
For Rohan & Joe’s portrait session in Domino Park, we spent a hot summer evening walking around Williamsburg and hanging out by the water. We were connected through one of my favorite couples from 2018, Katherine & Bryan who got married at the Arnold Arboretum in Boston- where I got married! I knew any friends of theirs would be good peeps, and couldn’t wait to meet them.
