Anna and Chris had an unforgettable elopement in New York City. First, they got ready at the sophisticated, luxury 5-star hotel, The Greenwich Hotel. This is where they had their romantic first look session. Then they headed to one of the loveliest venues in Manhattan, the Conservatory Garden at Central Park, NYC, for the wedding ceremony with only a few family members in tow. After which, they had a short bride and groom editorial portrait session on the lovely grounds of the Conservatory Garden. And to cap it off, they had their dinner reception in a private dining space downstairs at La Mercerie, Soho.

The beautiful bride, Anna, wore a white monochrome Toni Maticevski top and pants. Then she added a pop of color to her outfit with her ruby red shoes from Jimmy Choo and a red clutch. Lovebirds Anna and Chris don’t like too much fuss at their intimate wedding. They don’t want to take it too seriously or stress about the little details. Instead, what they want is a small, warm, fun celebration with lots of great food, drinks, and laughter. The most important thing for them is being together with friends and family and having a great time!

The couple’s wedding is a small affair, so it’s really just them and the closest people they love. They wanted to keep it very low-key but wanted an editorial wedding photographer who could capture some great shots of their family and friends at the ceremony and dinner. And I’m so honored to shoot this amazing couple’s intimate wedding, capturing the happiness, love, and good vibes, which they will cherish for a lifetime.

When asked who are the most important people in their wedding —

“Our parents, Cris’ twin brother, my grandma and uncle (if they are able to join). We’ll only have family at the ceremony so having some great shots of them would be amazing. But we’d also love to get some great shots of our friends at dinner if possible. It’s a small affair, so it’ll really be just our closest people, and we love them all!” 

– Anna, the Bride
