Brooklyn Engagement // O'Hagan + Ed

A Brooklyn Rooftop Proposal

Engagement // Alice + Lenny

Remember those warm months?  Oh, how I'm missing them.  Bring forward Alice + Lenny and their fun engagement shoot that we did in their Brooklyn Heights neighborhood.  They took me to some of their favorite spots (a great idea for engagement shoots) and while I'm not sure that I could actually make a list of my top 5 neighborhoods in Brooklyn, I imagine Brooklyn Heights would be right up there.  The views, the brownstones... I'll take it all.  Walking around with these two definitely increased it's rating.  They're so sweet, totally in love and getting married in an awesome venue next year.  I'm so happy to get to be a part of their day. Congratulations Alice + Lenny!

Locations: Home, Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn Promenade, Dumbo

Engagement // Brigid + Nick

Well, hello 2014.  Nice to see you and I realize it's time to get back on track with blogging!  Last year was quite a wonderful one that began with a Brooklyn wedding and ended with an Anguilla one and everything in between was equally as wonderful.  I want to say, again, a huge congratulations to everyone who tied the knot last year.  

That being said I'm looking forward to 2014 just as much.  I just got back from Australia where I witnessed some of my best friends getting married (I wasn't the photographer) and this year has me traveling for weddings from Brooklyn (yeah!) to upstate New York to the Berkshires and even Hong Kong!  It's shaping up to be an incredible year. 

Now onto this engagement shoot that makes me really happy…

As a NYC photographer I feel very strongly about my city as a fantastic backdrop for engagement sessions and weddings, but when Brigid and Nick contacted me from Baltimore I have to admit that I jumped at the chance.  They gave me a tour of their city and I got to see all of the great industrial details that remind me of my very own neighborhood in Brooklyn.  We started at their alma mater, Loyola, and wandered through a few neighborhoods before it started raining down by the docks.  It really couldn't have been more perfect.   Rain gets a bad rap, but with some clear umbrellas, smiles and lots of love it's one of the most romantic backdrops.  Congratulations B+N and see you in Baltimore soon!

Engagement // Jen + Travis

Where to even begin?  These two are such fun to be around and I'm absolutely positive that their wedding day is going to be filled with laughs. They even insisted that I join in the photobooth festivities at The Standard and as you can tell from the photo booth picture they are a thousand times more photogenic than me.  I'm so happy to see them again for their wedding as a stunning bride and groom!

Congratulations Jen + Travis!

Locations: High Line // Meatpacking District // The Standard Hotel // Central Park

Engagement // Mari + Max

I'm sure there are many words to describe this Mari + Max, but the first one that comes to mind for me is FUN and we definitely had some wandering around during this engagement shoot.  They also happen to have one of the cutest cats I've seen (this happens to me a lot!) so, naturally, we hit it off right away and I'm thrilled to be a part of their wedding later this year.

Congratulations, Mari + Max!
