The Beauty of Being New York City Wedding Photographers

I always knew I wanted to be the best NYC wedding photographer in the most fantastic city in the world.

When I started as a photographer, I began photographing something that’s also a primary passion of mine – music. I photographed some of the music industry’s biggest and most famous names in the early 2000s. It was the perfect learning experience to make me a better wedding photographer. It taught me the importance of capturing a moment even when the lighting or weather. There’s no such thing as a perfect environment, but there is such a thing as an ideal moment. I became an expert at capturing images in dark environments, unexpected weather, or low-light situations.
