Lower East Side, New York City Coffee Crawl Engagement Session

Amie and Tim lived in New York City for a few years right above the Urban Outfitters on 2nd Ave.  When they lived here, they had their favorite cafes, bars and restaurants that they frequented.  They currently now have moved to San Francisco but still miss all their favorite NYC spots, so they decided to celebrate their old spots for their engagement session in New York City.  So here is an amazing engagement session that is spent eating, drinking and walking our way around the Lower East Side.  We hit up Third Rail Coffee, Liquiteria, a super cute stamp shop and a few bars on the way.   Man, I love being a new york city wedding and engagement photographer. I get to hit up great spots and find new spots to go back to!

Here are some of my favorites from the session:

Gorgeous Tribeca Rooftop Wedding in New York City

While living in Hong Kong for work, these two charming native New Yorkers lovers travelled all the way back to the concrete jungle, to declare their love to the world. Annie amazingly planned this timeless, perfect New York City wedding all the way across the world from Hong Kong! In the strikingly stunning Tribeca Rooftop, wedding bells were ringing for this beautiful couple. Tribeca Rooftop is such a beautiful wedding venue in NYC and despite the intermittent rainy weather, the rooftop at this venue was perfect for letting the bridal party have shelter when needed, and quickly grab flawless shots in the clear moments. Annie & Roberto blissfully celebrated the night away, surrounded by their loved ones, underneath the star-filled skylight. Cheers were heard all around the night for this newly wedded husband and wife! Another amazing night to affirm that I love being a New York City wedding photographer!

A Rainy Brooklyn Promenade New York City Elopement

This was definitely one of the most interesting elopements I've ever done.  Shot entirely in the pouring rain!  Jackie and Aaron are from LA, California (Peep the LOVE LA street sign in one of these shots later) and their parents were flying in to NYC to witness their union.  Although the forecast had rain at 100%, their parents were only going to be in town this weekend - so we knew it was going to happen- rain or shine! We met at the Brooklyn Promenade; the officiant all ready, and everyone had armed with umbrellas!  I was able to capture their adorable elopement in the rain, surrounded by their family and friends and it was AWESOME!  It was whimsical, romantic, fast paced and definitely the kind of day you'd remember!! Despite the weather, there was a gorgeous backdrop and a lot less people walking around the park (which was really helpful!!)  Jackie and Aaron were all up for everything!! Their upbeat spirit and willingness to get amazing shots DEFINITELY made it all worth it!!  I had so much fun with them and was so thankful that despite some unforeseen circumstances- they were still able to have fun and enjoy their day!!!  Photographing in New York, you really never know what you’re going to get! I was super excited to blog this New York City elopement and hope you guys will enjoy it too!! #iLOVENY !!
