Natalie and David's New York Wedding Part 1

I had the pleasure of working with international couple Natalie & David for their destination New York wedding right here orchestrated by Cheryl J. Weddings & Events! The couple flew in from Korea where they now live and work for a whirlwind New York extravaganza! The couple's first look was at the beautiful Central Park Conservatory Gardens and the ceremony was at The Holy Trinity Church on the Upper East Side. Cocktail hour and the intimate reception were held in the penthouse of the Hotel Giraffe. Cheers!

The Holidays Begin - Family Photography in Central Park

I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely family of Sherri & Lee of the fabulous team of Williams-Sossens Events! We had a lovely day in Central Park and the kids did a great job! We always like to make the shoots fun so we climbed some rocks and thew some leaves. Here's a few of my favorite photos! These kids grow up sooooo fast - I feel like I just saw their baby announcements!

A Central Park Zoo Wedding Reception

I had the pleasure of photographing a lovely reception at the Central Park Zoo a few weeks ago designed by the bride's family with Curtain Up Events! The ceremony was held at the lovely Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church on Fifth Avenue and everyone arrived at the park just before sunset for cocktails and a private performance by the sea lions! The event was filled with lovely details including live sitar music during the cocktail hour, colorful throw pillows all around, peacock feathers for each guest on the tables, paper lanterns surrounding the park and lovely gold & green table decor. Guests were treated to an amazing meal provided by Great Performances and rocked the night away to the music of DJ David Chang. As a cake-lover, one of my favorite elements was the custom six-tier almond wedding cake with lemon-buttercream frosting decorated with sugar green cymbidium orchids and blackberries on a custom tree stand made by Sugar Flowers Cake Shop. I didn't have time to taste it but it was spectacular! All the details were amazing and it was an incredible event!
