The grandest gesture of love with these two! Their surprise proposal was captured during sunset in front of the famous Jane’s Carousel in Brooklyn with the epic Lower Manhattan skyline in the background.

Down in the grungy section of the East Village resides The Bowery Electric NYC, which is where I photographed up-and-coming singer/songwriter Ella Galvin for her first New York City concert. Growing up partying in the East Village area during college and my early twenties, The Bowery Electric is exactly the type of venue I envisioned […]

My clients, Jennifer and Beatrice (Bea) came to me about two months before their big day looking for a wedding photographer because our mutual friend, who is also an amazing nail tech, referred me.
