This amazing Lower west side Micro Wedding was such a blast to shoot, I remember talking with the client for a few weeks before hand coordinating lighting and elopement portrait settings. She really wanted to encapsulate the city vibes and I think Delancey street is a great place to do that. I have always been personally obsessed with old graffiti and even more so the old iconic store fronts of NYC, as I was born and raised here. We only had two hours and spent the first hour or so getting family portraits around the lower east side and then off to her friends restaurant near by for the ceremony. Even with little planning and not much time we got such amazing photos and I had such a great time working with them. I totally encourage people to seek out alternative-ideas for the big crazy expensive weddings, micro weddings and elopements are an amazing way to save money and get to experience your day in a truly intimate stress free way.

I met @lulupenrose.art at a wedding a few years back and I remember being so drawn to her unique and colorful style. Maybe a mutual adoration I hope ❤️ but finally many years later with some luck I had the pleasure of creating these with her ! My cameras really pulled through for me, thank you Lulu and thank you photography for always being here for me and giving me life .. portraits shot at the Bethlehem steel stacks on 35 and 120 film ..
I’m not sure why but I love people’s legs feet and the bottoms of their bodies. ! @hotellilien @toast_jewelry

When Grayson popped into my email and I went to check her IG page out I can’t help but admit I was really excited .. such a unique and beautiful couple and it’s not every day I get to photo a pro basketball player, shortly after their elopement they moved to Japan where he plays internationally.. how fucking cool is that ! One aspect of weddings that’s over looked is this amazing experience of meeting completely different people no two couples are ever the same I truly thrive on that nuance and the magic of human connection .. @graysonharrar ❤️
