Church of St. Luke and House of the Redeemer Wedding
Kris and Paul were married June 20th at The Church of St. Luke. We started at the High Line Hotel, a place which used to be part the General Theological Seminary, and in fact the bride studied there! We also did their engagement shoot on the High Line. We made stops at Madison Square Park (including the Fata Morgana on installation), Flat Iron Building, the rooftop deck at our studio, and Grand Central on the way up to House of the Redeemer. It was a great day, view some photos from the day below!
Small June Wedding at Belvedere Castle
On June 14th, we photographed a small wedding – Christina & Glenn decided to elope in Central Park, and chose Belvedere Castle as their wedding location. It was perfect weather, and we took them to a few of our favorite spots in Central Park including the Ramble, Shakespeare Gardens, Oak Bridge, and Ladies’ Pavilion. Check out some of the photos below!

Harlem Meer Picnic Reception
Rachel and Neal were married July 10th at the Wisteria Pergola in Central Park Conservatory Gardens. Their Harlem Meer picnic reception immediately followed in Central Park. This was a destination wedding for the bride and groom, who both live in England. Their honeymoon was in the Florida Keys afterward.
The Wedding Day
It was a nice day, a little hot during the ceremony. The reception was right on the lake in Harlem Meer (across from Mount Sinai hospital) and was very nice with a cool breeze. The food was from Second Avenue Deli, providing a great spread of sandwiches and salads. A saxophone player played the first dance song Gerry Rafferty – Right Down the Line, and he was great the whole time.
