Micro Wedding Photography in the Upper East Side

A documentary wedding photographer’s role is to tell the story of your day as it truly happens. There is no direction, staging, or interruption; just pure storytelling through candid, emotional imagery. From intimate loft weddings to outdoor celebrations by the sea or grand events in the mountains, I approach each wedding with the same intention: to document what unfolds naturally and truthfully.

No. Although I have a deep appreciation for the closeness and emotion of small weddings, I also photograph large celebrations and everything in between. The size of your wedding doesn’t change the way I work; my goal is always to capture the heart of your story. You can reach out through my contact page anytime to share your vision.

The most meaningful wedding photos are often not the posed portraits but the authentic moments that reflect the true atmosphere of your day. Using a documentary style, I capture the natural rhythm of your celebration, whether it’s the warmth of a candlelit dinner, the laughter of your guests, or the glow of sunset over the Upper East Side. Each couple has their own story, and this approach preserves those intimate, genuine memories that you’ll look back on with lasting affection.

Yes. Although I focus primarily on documentary photography, I always reserve a short time for traditional portraits. This typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes and includes family groupings, couple portraits, and any specific combinations that matter most to you.

Your day should flow naturally and reflect who you are. I don’t choreograph or interfere with the unfolding of events. Instead, I document the story as it happens, allowing emotions and connections to come through authentically. My role is to help you forget about the camera so you can be fully present.

Yes. I cover all essential parts of your wedding day, including the first look, vows, and speeches, along with the quieter, spontaneous details in between. My approach ensures nothing significant is missed while keeping the experience seamless and unobtrusive.

Yes! Though I’m based in New York as a wedding and elopement photographer, my work takes me far and wide. Whether your celebration unfolds on the Upper East Side or in another beautiful corner of the world, I’d love the chance to photograph it.

Begin by sending me the details of your wedding day, including the date, location, and approximate guest count. Once I confirm that I’m available, we can arrange a time to chat over a call, video conference, or an in-person meeting to go over all your plans. To secure your date, a $200 non-refundable deposit is required, with the remaining payment due one month before your wedding. For last-minute bookings, the full amount is collected at the time of confirmation.

I generally deliver your fully edited photo collection within 4 to 6 weeks. This ensures each image receives the time and attention needed to capture the emotion and atmosphere of your day. You will receive an online gallery link to view and download your photos at your convenience.

Yes, I do. Engagement shoots are an enjoyable and relaxed experience that helps you get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. The focus is on capturing your natural connection and authentic expressions.

Many clients appreciate my calm and patient nature throughout the wedding process. I take pride in creating images that feel genuine, timeless, and emotionally rich, ensuring your gallery represents your love story in the most natural way possible.

Yes, I am fully insured with both professional indemnity and public liability coverage. Upon request, I can provide a certificate of insurance for your venue, and I always advise couples to confirm their other vendors are properly insured as well.
