Tuffet Wedding - Brooklyn, NY - Rachel & Katy
Rachel and Katy celebrated their love with a restaurant wedding at the chic wine and cheese bar and event space, Tuffet, in Williamsburg. In an unexpected moment of kismet, the wall across from the restaurant sported a mural commemorating Stonewall- a beautiful nod to the couples meeting place, which neither knew existed until their wedding day. In a small courtyard in the back of the restaurant, the pair exchanged vows during an intimate ceremony. In lieu of a traditional ring bearer, their audience of family and friends each held the box of wedding rings as it was passed around during the ceremony- allowing everyone to personally bless this symbol of their union before the official “I do’s.”
Brooklyn City Hall Elopement & Roberta’s Pizza Reception - Amy & Andrew
Amy and Andrew broke the mold of what a wedding could be when they decided to throw themselves a big going away pizza party at Roberta’s in Brooklyn, disguised as a wedding.

Neptune Room at Radio Star - Brooklyn, NY - Morgan & Tim
East coast boy meets West coast girl. An introduction in college sparks a post-grad romance, and before you know it, you’re settling down together in Brooklyn, in an apartment you’ve designed with your person.

Sunday in Brooklyn Wedding - Williamsburg - Sara & Nizar
Sara & Nizar celebrated their wedding with an intimate dinner at SUNDAY IN BROOKLYN with their closest friends and family in Williamsburg, where they’ve lived built a life together the past few years. Sara is Iranian-American & Nizar is Pakistani/Burmese and felt an immediate connection when they met on Hinge 4 years ago. Truly, their love for each other beams from the other side of the room. Nizar proposed on a trip to Anguilla in December 2021, with a ring that was custom designed by Sara’s friend who’s a jeweler. A few months later they connected with me to photograph their wedding celebration!
Olmsted Restaurant Wedding - Brooklyn, NYC - Sonya & Sage
Sonya & Sage had an intimate wedding at their favorite restaurant Olmsted, right around the corner from their Brooklyn apartment!
Sonya got ready in their apartment with a couple friends, and Sage got ready literally one door down at their neighbor’s apartment who were also attending the wedding. We then had their first look on the steps of their brownstone, and took some portraits on their tree-lined street.
The chosen vibe for their wedding: “We want it to feel like a low-key botanical garden disco. Is a low-key disco a thing? We're making it one.” I think they succeeded. The casual backyard space where they got married is literally a garden- the restaurant actually grows some of their produce right on-site! It made for an intimate sweet ceremony space, and when we moved inside for dinner, they used it as a cozy lounge area complete with string lights and s’mores.
LIC Waterfront Wedding - Queens, NYC - Donell & Kelly
Donell & Kelly knew they wanted their wedding to be small and low-key, but thoughtful (which is honestly my favorite kind of party, and therefore my favorite kind of client who would want to throw that kind of party.) They got married at the church Donell grew up going to, took portraits in Long Island City with the Manhattan skyline behind them, and then ate delicious Italian food at Maiella.
Jane's Carousel Wedding - DUMBO Brooklyn, NY - Alison & Jason
Alison & Jason had their wedding reception at the vintage, iconic Jane’s Carousel in Brooklyn Bridge Park in DUMBO. Theirs was not your typical wedding- they scrapped formalities they didn’t need, and added new ones in the most thoughtful, intentional way.
