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 !

Photo taken of me by my 6 year old daughter luchiana, back in my old hood, on the upper west side, my own small town, its weird to be a new yorker and think like that, but when you grew up here thats truly what its like, your apt and the 5 block radius around it becomes your own small town and in many ways as a small kid its all that exists. I love this place it gave me so much awareness of culture art and the reality of the world we live in, since you are confronted with that daily, i still have the pleasure of coming back here often to drop film at @proimagephoto and our kids pediatrician is still here. Walking around yesterday with my kids was so bitter sweet. Ultimately i think we made a good choice to live more rural, but grateful i will always have my ties and roots here and still get to work here..
