Edgey Couple’s session on 35mm Film - Wendy & Ben - Brooklyn, NY
I met Wendy & Ben at a wedding I shot for a friend back in 2021. They wore their film cameras as accessories, and I knew immediately- these are my people. Since then, we’ve been admiring each other’s work from afar- they live in Boston and both photograph the indie music scene. When they reached out about doing a couple’s session to celebrate their first dating-anniversary as newlyweds, I was ELATED we could finally collab! They visit Brooklyn often, and crash with their friends who live in Prospect Heights - who also booked me as their wedding photographer in September, thanks to Wendy’s accolades! Let’s just say, they’re great peeps, and I’m lucky to be in community with them.

Weylin Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Dixie & Eric
It all started at the Bowery Electric in the Lower East Side, when Dixie winked at Eric from across the bar during a mutual friend’s party. After she went in for the kiss and gave him her number, their destinies were set. Two years later, Dixie and Eric were engaged, sharing a home in the Upper East Side, where they enjoyed runs in Central Park, and frequent traveling. In her own words, Dixie said: “We’re not above a casual bottle of rose on a weeknight.” They wed less than three miles away from their original meeting place, just a hop across the East River at the Weylin in Williamsburg.
MyMoon Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Alex & Maddy
Alex & Maddy wed at MyMoon, a converted boiler room from Williamsburg’s industrial heyday turned chic Spanish style tapas bistro. Their guests convened on the restaurant’s spacious patio, amid urban, rugged decor paired with lush greenery and flower-filled bud vases. After the couple exchanged vows, they were joyfully showered in a flurry of bubbles.
TOURISTS Wedding - Berkshires, MA - Em & Zack
Warm, loving, and nostalgic. After meeting in 7th grade, growing up a mile from each other, and dating since high school- Em and Zack chose to celebrate their love with close friends and family in the Berkshires. The two have attended several weddings over the past couple years, but none of the venues quite embodied the non-traditional, organic, and goofy energy that the couple wanted for their wedding- until they heard through the grapevine that the food at TOURISTS in North Adams, MA was divine, and they went for a tour!
