99 Scott Wedding : Supriya & Sameer : Brooklyn, NY
Supriya & Sameer were married in Greenpoint, Brooklyn hosting their wedding at 99 Scott in October.
I see a lot of photography of South Asian weddings that seems so melodramatic. I love bringing a more documentary approach so that we can get a sense of personality and let the rich colors and traditions speak for themselves. This wedding at 99 Scott was so full of life - what a joy to photograph.

Prospect Park Boathouse Wedding : Brooklyn, NY

Liberty Warehouse Wedding : Brooklyn, NY
Stef & Kyle were married in Spring at Liberty Warehouse in Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY.
I kicked my season off last year with this amazing wedding on a perfect Spring day in May. Stef & Kyle’s day was packed full of emotion from beginning to end which is quite simply fun to photograph. There are some really nice moments with Stef and her mom and dad during the getting ready. While more and more couples are asking me if getting ready photos are necessary, I have to point to pictures like these. It’s really not about capturing makeup brushes. Not to mention it’s nice to have a second to get used to a camera being around before we dive right into some of the most important photos of the day (bride & groom portraits).
Brooklyn wedding venues come in all shapes and sizes but Liberty Warehouse is unique in its ability to host hundreds of people in such a way that doesn’t require renting every fork, table and chair. There’s no beating the terrace overlooking the water and experiencing a ceremony there at sunset is something guests will never forget I am sure. I love the way the light changes the vibe and mood as the sun slips under the horizon. Some couples opt for their reception upstairs which offers white walls and more of an open feel. Others set up downstairs for the industrial look and indoor/outdoor component that allows guests to walk outside for a drink. Either way it’s a win - and I always love the enormous getting ready suite for the bride and wedding party.

Weylin Wedding : Brooklyn, NY
Veronica & Yakov were married at Weylin in Brooklyn, NY in March.
This celebration led by Benor & Beik events was breathtaking in its scope as well as the family centered, positive energy throughout. It’s funny how when you’re in a cavernous space like Weylin, Gothom Hall or Cipriani.. it’s so big it’s almost… intimate? The space is so vast that you feel especially banded together with those around you. We started the day off right getting ready at William Vale before a first look in the rotunda and portraits on the street out front. A tisch and bedeken set the stage for the ceremony that followed with Veronica entering through the Metropolitan Opera House-like red curtains.
River Cafe Wedding : Christine & Diego : Brooklyn, NY
Christine & Diego were married at The River Cafe overlooking Manhattan.
It’s always interesting to see how different couples bring a varied vibe to venues I’m at frequently. Sometimes The River Cafe is warm and intimate. Sometimes it fosters a casual party atmosphere. On this day there was a bit of an intriguing mystique to the air thanks to Christine & Diego’s creative sensibilities and penetrating gaze.
The bride and groom got ready at NU Hotel in Brooklyn allowing me to visit both of them as they prepped since I was flying solo that particular day. We took advantage of the sharp, contrasty light in Brooklyn Bridge Park for their portraits as the sun settled down on the horizon during the ceremony on the patio. Christine wore Robert Bullock while Diego donned a custom Alan David tuxedo. Another example of how TRC can take a bow tie or no tie.
