Enjoy taking a look at my recent work. I love sharing my clients love stories and my wedding knowledge with you!
As you know from reading past blog posts, I believe that in order for us to know how this absolutely stunning couple got here- to their engagement session- we should start with how they began. We should start with how they found each other and, in turn, fell in love.
Samantha and Alex’s love story began in the most unexpected yet perfectly fitting way—over a casual dinner in their college dining hall. It was August 25, 2018 (yes we have the receipts), just three days into their freshman year, when mutual friends introduced them. The moment Samantha noticed Alex’s prominent birthmark on his neck, her natural boldness took over. Without hesitation, she blurted out, “Wow, the third day and you already have a hickey on your neck?” That direct and playful comment set the tone for their dynamic from the very start.
When a couple realizes they fell in love at The MET, it’s a no-brainer that we must return to the beginning of their love story for their engagement session! So, let’s go back to the beginning: The night Jordan met Sam, New York City was buried under a thick blanket of snow. It was their friend Emmy’s birthday, and she had invited a smattering of pals out to celebrate at Madam Marie’s, a cozy little bar in Queens. At first, Jordan wasn’t sure about making the trek from Flatbush—the thought of navigating the city in a blizzard wasn’t exactly appealing. But something made her decide to go.
Love stories come in all forms, but there’s something extra special about a modern-day Tinder success story! Arianna and Damiano’s love story began with a simple swipe and led to an unforgettable first date over sushi. They talked for hours, lost track of time, and have been inseparable ever since.
A warm spring afternoon, the golden sun shining down, and the vibrant colors of blooming flowers all set the stage for Yamileht and Kevin’s engagement session at Sayen House and Gardens in NJ. From the moment they arrived, it was clear these two were meant to be—full of laughter, love, and a bond that radiated in every shot.
A sunny afternoon in March at Hunters Point, Long Island City was the perfect setting for this surprise proposal! John had planned the whole thing and even had cover stories to keep the secret. As far as Alex knew they were going to brunch with their friends and had to take the ferry to get there.
This winter wedding at the Hilton in Pearl River, NY celebrating Caroline and Matt was filled with intentional moments. The indoor ceremony space at this wedding venue is unique and beautiful! The room is an oval shape with a detailed sky mural on the ceiling and tall windows letting in lots of natural light.
Love has a way of finding its perfect timing, and for Raquel and Tucker, it all started in high school. Their journey began at a local swim school, where they worked together as lifeguards and swim instructors. What started as a simple friendship soon grew into something deeper. They spent time together at school, with Tucker driving Raquel to and from work, forming a connection that, at the time, seemed like nothing more than a close friendship.

This summer wedding at Hotel Du Village was epic!! I got to assist my friend and mentor, Tori Kelner, on this colorful day filled with tradition and energy! The venue grounds are lush and full of these beautiful willow trees. Inside the venue feels like stepping into the perfectly maintained antique home. I love that they honored the building by keeping the dark wood accents, wall moulding and gorgeous floor tiles (If you know me I love antiques)!
Love knows no weather, and Sam and Jacob’s wedding day was a testament to that. A tropical storm threatened to dampen their spirits, but nothing could stop this couple and their guests from turning their special day into a celebration to remember. The day kicked off with an infectious energy as Sam and Jacob, surrounded by their closest friends, played music while preparing for the big moment. Sam’s Engagement ring was Jacob’s grandmother’s and Jacob’s wedding ring was custom-made by a friend. Adorned with a sun, mountain, and their wedding date, the ring was a symbol of their unique love story of being nomads traveling the world. They had their first look in the drizzling rain before taking photos with their wedding party and families. As the ceremony started Sam and Jacobs nerves melted away and they got to say “I Do”.
This gorgeous summer wedding day at Running Deer Golf Club was so special! Sydney and Juan are a whimsical and edgy mix. They did not disappoint with their attire for their wedding day!! Her gorgeous flowing dress (with removable sleeves) and his corduroy suit with the gold chain of a pocket watch across his vest. They are so true to them and this day was magic because of it
