I can’t remember the last time I have been to Coney Island, maybe as a young kid, but what an amazing choice for an elopement, this location is great for elopement ceremonies and small weddings, with tons of spots including the beach to choose to have your ceremony, and then the rides and vast options of murals and breath taking back drops for photography portrait sessions after, while its little off the beaten track definitely a great location and as an elopement photographer in NYC, I would love to shoot at again !

Coming up on 10 years with this beautiful guy right here! I still remember the night we met like it was yesterday a memory that I hope will never fade.. we met at a nyc spot called the tender trap. Who remembers the tender trap ? I was absolutely not looking for love that night but once we connected we couldn’t stop talking and I felt a feeling of home with him .. I remember those first few weeks so vividly, it was like highschool all over again and I couldn’t get enough of him, we were inseparable .. in a wild witchy twist of fate the apt building he had been living in burned down and we made some really big decisions only weeks into our romance to move in together .. the truth is I couldn’t have imagined not being around him or with him so it was such a blessing.. in those early months our love felt so effortless and both of our lives got better with eachother. He started working more full time in the carpenters union and my wedding work really became my full time job alongside graduate school for counseling .. it didn’t take long for us to both realize that kids and this energy around making babies together was a real thing, the truth is I spent most of my adult life after abdominal surgery thinking I couldn’t have them, but after some fertility testing found out I could and 3 months later we found out we were pregnant with our first child Luchiana ! That was the happiest day of my life .. then the pandemic happened and tested and rocked our world and we make this huge decision to move to PA this could have been a breaking point for us, he didn’t want to leave NYC and I couldn’t stay, but it wasn’t and our love grew and we ended up with our son Odin:) he was definitely a mistake but I had been thinking of him as many mothers do for months prior.. our life over the last 10 years has been filled with so many trials and has acted as huge testaments for why I love this man so much ! He’s my best friend and late night we still stay up talking way too late about everything and nothing .. I love you Ralph ! And as I just kissed you good bye I felt it again I’m still so in love with you .. you and our kids mean the world to me .. and I love your hands so much .. ❤️
Some of my favorite images live in this gallery Eva and Justin your a dream ! My recent city hall elopement with these two total sweeties .. I always have a level of nervousness and even anxiety every single time I shoot, I think it’s this very feeling that keeps my vigilant and on my toes … always feeling a deep sense of purpose for the couples I work with .. I don’t take this lightly portraiture is a honor and a gift I work so hard for all of you ..
