Liberty House Wedding : Maxi & Rory : Jersey City, NJ
Maxi & Rory were married July 28, 2018 with a ceremony and reception at Liberty House located in Liberty State Park of Jersey City, NJ. Is there a better way to cap off a summer wedding than with a firepit s'more cookout? I think not. Maxi & Rory got ready at the nearby Westin Jersey City before making their way to Liberty State Park for a first look. The weather kept us on our toes that day with one of those cloudless sky downpours... but thankfully everything calmed down by the time their ceremony was underway. Which, is a very good thing, considering there are hardly any more spectacular views of Manhattan than that from the back porch of The Liberty House, with its endless views of lower Manhattan.
Wee Burn Country Club Wedding : Christy & Kevin : Darien, CT
Christy & Kevin were married July 14, 2018 holding their wedding ceremony at St John Catholic Church and reception at Wee Burn Country Club in Darien, CT. When you pull in to Wee Burn CC you feel as though you've been transported to Santa Barbara, CA with its Spanish Revival facade radiating the afternoon light. Nestled in a beautiful neighborhood, Wee Burn is a gem with gorgeous grounds and a welcoming vibe. Both Christy & Kevin got ready at the club before heading over to St John Church for a ceremony in the intimate sanctuary. Once we returned to the club, it was the perfect temperature for an outdoor cocktail hour on the patio which I think is perhaps the greatest part of having a wedding here. At the end of the day, it's an exceedingly romantic setting with the string lights and soft evening light. A special thanks goes out to Laura Boulton Events. Laura is such a pro and one of my favorite vendors to work with in Connecticut!
William Vale Wedding : Fay & Tom : Brooklyn, NY
Fay & Tom were married June 30, 2018 holding their wedding ceremony and reception at The William Vale hotel in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. When I first saw The William Vale I knew it'd be a great fit both for the bride & groom and for me. Clean lines, a grand placement overlooking Williamsburg, and sweeping views of Manhattan make this a truly stunning location for an event. I was indeed even more lucky to have a couple like Fay & Tom whose personal style took the venue to new heights. From the lighting of the ballroom, to decor choices throughout and the wise idea to skip the first look and take advantage of the pretty evening light, they put on a spectacular event for everyone.

Houston Hall Wedding : Kate & Andrew : New York, NY
Kate & Andrew were married June 9 at Houston Hall in the SoHo of New York City. Fun couples, great details, and an amazing location make photographing weddings a breeze and this was no exception. Down to the last detail, Kate & Andrew's wedding dreams came alive along with the help of Daniela from Vision Event Co who made everything run smoothly behind the scenes. As a former FBI vehicle maintenance shop turned beer hall, Houston Hall is a pretty amazing space with tons of exposed brick, high ceilings and a really cool vibe throughout. The Dominick Hotel located just a few blocks away provided a nice style counterpoint to the urban warehouse feel of the wedding and we made use of the exterior for some portraits. A first look before the ceremony got all of the formal shots out of the way so the bride and groom could stay fully wrapped up in their wedding experience the rest of the evening.
The Foundry Wedding : Brenna & Mark : Long Island City, NY
Brenna & Mark were married May 26, 2018 with a ceremony at St Mary's Roman Catholic Church and wedding reception at The Foundry, both in Long Island City, Queens. The Foundry is one of those venues that you just can't wait to visit. Couples, vendors, and guests love it alike. On my first visit here some 8 years ago, I was like where in the world are we going? Tucked underneath the Queensboro bridge, this corner of Long Island City has changed a lot in that time, but it still feels like you're going to a secret destination, despite how popular The Foundry has become. I love how flexible the space is and the different characters of the various rooms and outdoor areas come together to make an amazing experience. Just down the street from The Foundry is the Z Hotel where the bridal party got ready before heading to the church. We stopped at Gantry Plaza Park for some portraits and then utilized the rooftop at The Foundry for some more shots of the bride and groom. Guests had filled the back patio by then and the party was underway. One big mention goes out to DJ Duane from 74 Events - I found myself shazaming tunes constantly! I'd like to especially thank the Dugan family for trusting me with documenting yet another family wedding! It's a great compliment to be referred from one couple to another- and especially so between sisters.
