Housing works Bookstore Wedding: New York, NY

This off the cuff New York City wedding was held at Housing Works Bookstore in SoHo. It rained and it poured and that was just fine.

My first wedding at Housingworks was many years (decade+) ago and I’ve always loved the vibe of the place. For a long while the bookstore was my go to spot for meetings. It was particularly fun to return here with a couple that was entirely focused on having a good time. With me dragging all my stuff and the bride in heels, we walked through pouring rain to a local dive by the name of 169 Bar to hang out for a few photos before kicking off the celebration. This type of day is what makes me grin when people ask what my favorite kind of wedding is because what I truly enjoy is the extreme variety I get to see here in NYC. The day before I was arranging a cathedral length veil for altar photos. It takes a totally different mindset and approach and being a bit of a photographic chameleon is right up my alley.
