A lot of couples ask me if I only photograph elopement or if I capture bigger, more traditional weddings as well. And the answer is YES, I photograph those wonderful events as well. And when I do, I love them so much! While it is true that my specialty lies with the elopement, I still love to hang out with and capture the magic for couples for an entire day during those traditional unions. And if I may say so myself, I'm quite good at it as well. So, reach out and I can tell you all about it.
And if all the above wasn't already enough, I also love to capture vow renewals, mommy's-to-be, newborns, kids, families and sometimes even all the above at the same time. No joke, it has happened! These are the milestones you want to remember. No matter if I come to your neighborhood, we meet somewhere in the city or you visit me here in Queens with the amazing skyline view, together we will create memories for your family that you will cherish a lifetime. Let's make some magic.
This is such an exciting time for you guys, and I cannot wait to hear what this moment means to you. Let's plan your dream day here in New York City together. The fun starts here!

Happy Valentine’s Day my wife, my rock, and the heart of our family. 💕
I still love her 85 times to the moon and back. She’s the calm when things get chaotic, the one who sees the good in every situation, and the glue that holds us all together. Her laugh can brighten any day, and her support is the kind of magic you don’t take for granted.
I love our trips to the Baltic Sea, our Disney adventures, and the simple, everyday moments that make life with her so special. She’s my business partner, the love of my life, and my best friend - and I’m endlessly grateful for her, for us, and for the life we’ve built together.
This October, we’ll celebrate 20 years of marriage, and I swear I love her more with every passing year. ❤️
And, fun fact: our daughter took this photo. The talent clearly runs in the family. 😉📸
