Eli and Alexandra NYC City Hall Wedding

Simplicity and authenticity are the best two words to describe Eli and Alexandra. Capturing their happiness, authenticity, and eagerness to marry one another, their best friend, was really exciting. As a seasoned wedding photographer, with thousands of weddings under my belt, their city hall wedding in the heart of NYC was special. It was nice that there was no big catering hall, big cake, and a complicated dress to cloud the focus of the day.

Instead of detail shots consisting of uber expensive watches and shoes, the details of their day were the little things; their call number for the wedding paperwork, the pen Alexandra gave Eli, their wedding rings, and Eli’s UVA binder where they first met.

Caitlyn and George - NYC City Hall Wedding

Congrats Caitlyn and George! The fall consists of my busiest time of the year, both with weddings and other photo work (engagement sessions, corporate headshots, events, etc.,). However, photographing weddings at City Hall weddings is one of my favorite events to photograph. A city hall wedding is all about raw simplicity and genuine authenticity. I think they are a true reflection of the couple.

Simplicity and authenticity are the best two words to describe Caitlyn and George. Capturing their happiness, anxiousness, and eagerness to get married was really exciting. And, I say that as a seasoned photographer with hundreds of weddings under my belt. It was nice that there was no big catering hall, big cake, and complicated dress to cloud the focus of the day.

Instead of detail shots consisting of uber expensive watches and shoes, the details of their day were the couple’s letters to one another. Throughout the day, I had to search for details to capture. I had to search for the little moments and wait for the big moments.

After the ceremony, we all walked outside for a couple session and then more family photos.
