Day 40 of Winter: Brooklyn Bridge Wedding Officiant
C+B are native Long Islanders who lived in Park Slope for quite some time before receiving a job offer in California that one could not refuse. Because New York –and Brooklyn in particular– is so dear to their hearts, though, they decided to legally marry here with their two beautiful daughters and parents by their […]
MoreDay 39 of Winter: Brooklyn Winery Wedding Officiant
In addition to the larger room, the Brooklyn Winery has an adorable smaller room for very intimate gatherings with a dozen or two dozen guests. Very dimly lit, the room feels cozy, inviting, and warm. It suited N+E perfectly. This pair opted to exchange personal vows, and I’ve never before listened to personal vows with […]
MoreDay 38 of Winter: Shakespeare Garden Wedding Officiant
The lilies in the Shakespeare Garden were magnificiently blooming the day this pair married in early July. Truly magnificient. If any of my future couples love lilies, consider marrying in the Shakespeare Garden the last week of June, as well as the first and second weeks of July. Certainly, no guarantees exist. But I think […]
MoreDay 37 of Winter: Minton Terrace/ Angel of Waters’ Fountain Wedding Officiant
I bought a two rolls of Ilford SFX 200, which has an extended red sensitivity that makes it an “almost infrared film.” On landscapes, I love it with a red filter. On people, I’m not too crazy about the film, which I thought odd: infrared actually does a nice job of capturing people, and I […]
MoreDay 36 of Winter: Jefferson Market Garden Officiant
And here is another one of my couples who wisely opted to marry in a community garden!
MoreDay 35 of Winter: Creative Little Garden Wedding Officiant
I feel as though I’ve written this previously….I will never understand why more of my couples do not marry in community gardens. Firstly, the fee is not so awful (usually $250-500). Secondly, the fee supports green spaces run by real, everyday people. Thirdly, each garden has its own character: the Creative Little Garden is wonderfully […]
MoreDay 34 of Winter: iCi Restaurant (Brooklyn) Wedding Officiant
I know better. I really do. But M+S were looking too cute to resist about ten or fifteen minutes prior to the start of their ceremony. So I asked to take a photo (or rather two), and they agreed with smiles. I was already kicking myself for being silly enough to take a photo with […]
MoreDay 33 of Winter: Gapstow Bridge Wedding Officiant
Notice her unshoed feet and all those harsh shadows? Most wedding vendors understand why couples want to marry outside in the icy, cold center of winter or the bright heat of summer. Parks are pretty! Comfort levels are not so pretty. I am extra wary of park weddings in the winter; I cannot tell you […]
MoreDay 32 of Winter: High Line Wedding Officiant
The High Line is a marvelously fun and rather historical place at which to get married. The very tangible energy makes even tiny weddings and elopements feel more animated and exciting. Of course, since it is so popular for locals, tourists, and wedding and engagement photographer, please pick a time thoughtfully. Some of my couples […]
MoreDay 31 of Winter: Shakespeare Garden Wedding Officiant
Didn’t I just write that I married lots of couples in the Shakespeare Garden? It really is great location.
MoreDay 30 of Winter: Shaksepeare Garden Wedding Officiant
I marry couples all over Central Park. For some reason, the Shakespeare Garden was especially popular in the Spring and Early Summer.
MoreDay 29 of Winter: Pebbles’ Beach/Brooklyn Bridge Park Wedding Officiant
I love this location for intimate wedding ceremonies. The constant roar of the subways making its way over the Manhattan Bridge is the only serious drawback to getting married on the Pebbles’ Beach, which is a part of Brooklyn Bridge Park. When considering this location, remember that the subway runs consistently; that it is loud, […]
MoreDay 27 of Winter: Wedding Cake
I do not eat much cake at all. Nonetheless, I love gazing at photos of cakes. A well-done cake is a work of art in itself. This cake probably falls into the category of “simple wedding cakes.” Still, it’s lovely!
MoreDay 26 of Winter: Top of the Rock Officiant
I am not a photographer at all, let alone a wedding photography. I am solely an officiant. But I do know my trusty old Minolta SRT 100 adorned with a M Rokkor-x 50 f/1.4, which is an analog SLR 35mm camera with a stunning prime lens that has lived a longer life than myself. These […]
MoreDay 25 of Winter: Hernshead Wedding Officiant
I am not a photographer at all, let alone a wedding photography. I am solely an officiant. But I do know my trusty old Minolta SRT 100 adorned with a M Rokkor-x 50 f/1.4, which is an analog SLR 35mm camera with a stunning prime lens that has lived a longer life than myself. These […]
MoreDay 24 of Winter: Central Park Wedding Officiant

MoreDay 23 of Winter: Guerrilla Wedding Officiant (Museum)
If you are as low-key as these two Canadians, you too can have a quick, guerrilla elopement in the Metropolitan Museum of Art! In fact, the Met is a great space for a very sweet and simple winter marriage ceremony. I am not a photographer at all, let alone a wedding photography. I am solely […]
