Congratulations on your wedding! Was it a New York wedding? A destination wedding? Was it held on a rooftop like Tribeca 360 modern space event, Midtown Loft, or Gary's Loft, or did you say your I Do's in St. Patrick's Cathedral and had a reception at the Park Plaza or the Regis Hotel? Maybe it was at Oheka Castle, or by the beach or water like Peconic Bay Yacht Club, or Old Field Club in Long Island? Regardless of where it was held, I'm sure everything was beautiful, and all the wedding planning leading up to the big day was all worth it. After saying your vows and dancing the night away, it's natural to take some time to enjoy married life - yes, you're married! - and soak in wedding bliss.
How to create a wedding day photography timeline whether you’re in New York, New Jersey, a Destination Wedding, and having a first look, or no first look. Here’s a guide to help you! If you’re getting married in the city, or in the country, you still need to consider travel time, how long to take photos of entire bridal party, how much time to account for family photos of 10 or 50.
Barbados Destination Wedding featured on The Knot. Kristy and Philip's wedding was held on the cliffside of The Crane Resort on the beautiful Caribbean island of Barbados. Many family and friends from New York City, California, Philippines and the United Kingdom came to attend the beautiful tropical wedding and witness the couple get married.
How do you plan a destination wedding? We've developed some pointers on getting started planning a destination wedding, outside of general wedding planning tips. As a New York City-based wedding photographer, destination weddings are dear to my heart. My husband and I loved our destination wedding, and planning your own does not have to be complicated. Here are a few steps to consider when planning your wedding at your dream destination.
Sharing more photos from this fabulous Oahu, Hawaii Destination Wedding that I was honored to capture! Love traveling and when traveling to capture beautiful moments in a beautiful island with beautiful people, it's just magical! The wedding took place at the Hale Ohana House's Terrace where we had access to the beach to get beautiful classic Hawaii backdrop. Sheila just looks amazing in her Pnina Tornai wedding dress from Kleinfeld's Bridal with her Badgley Mischka shoes and Alex just looked dashing in his Mark Ecko gray suit. So many family and friends came to wish them well and even with rain and a storm, it held of for their ceremony. Congratulations Sheila and Alex!!! We love you guys!

When it comes to Destination Wedding photography, I am definitely bias since I myself was once a destination wedding bride! Me and my husband were married in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. I remember just being online for hours surfing the web doing research, stalking forums on TheKnot.com and Weddingbee.com, but also making friends with many Destination Wedding (DW) Knotties! If it weren't for them I would have been clueless as to how we would plan a destination wedding. As you can see from Kristy and Philip's images below, destination weddings are just breathtaking. The added perks of a destination wedding is that your backdrop tends to have a lot more scenery and bluer than let's say a NYC Wedding. I love being a NYC wedding photographer, but traveling overseas or event to a different state like Florida, California, Texas and more are also so worth it. You get different scenery and you and your guest can make a vacation out of it! So for every couple that decides to have a destination wedding, my heart is just joyful since I know first-hand how they are feeling, what it took to get to this day and time, and how every planning process was just worth it! I have so many friends who did get married overseas in Mexico, Puerto Rico, The Philippines, and more and each one of them stated it was just worth it. Can't wait to go back to one of the islands! Where will we travel to next to shoot an amazing destination wedding? :-) We love to travel especially in winter!
For Kristy and Philip, their wedding was a dream come true. With their closest friends as witnesses, and with family and friends back in New Jersey, New York, California and England feeling the cold weather, this gorgeous couple said their "I Do's" by the cliffs at The Crane Residential Resort in beautiful, warm, sunny Barbados. This wedding was just amazing with so many DIY crafts and eye candy to behold! The bride and groom did an amazing job planning every single detail of their wedding, from their invitations, to the DIY programs, stationery cards, photo booth, and so much more. They brought in the services of Ivie Joy Flowers & Events who created a wonderful design of fresh flowers in gorgeous vases that just pop with colors. I'm so happy to have been able to escape winter, even if it was only for a short while, and capture this luxurious wedding in this gorgeous Caribbean island. Being a photographer definitely has its perks! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Philip John!

Speaking of winter, although it's cold outside in NYC, there's nothing like shooting proposals, engagement photos and more in New York City especially near Valentine's Day! One of the best backdrops for any photos. I know wedding planners busy right now preparing for proposal events and aiding nervous groom-to-be for the big day when they say those 4 words...Need ideas for a proposal you're planning? Definitely check out Engagement 101 Magazine! http://www.yourengagement101.com/marriage-proposal-ideas/ One of our couples was recently featured with this article about their real proposal story and again in this article about what to do before your one and only pops the question: http://www.yourengagement101.com/relationships/2012/12/the-8-rules-for-ladies-in-waiting/
