BEAUTIFUL. REAL. THE UNEXPECTED.

Modern documentary wedding photography for all couples in love.

engagement sessions

less pose. more love.

We don't because sometimes our couples have already done an engagement session before booking us.  

We still think having a pre-wedding session with us is important.  You'll get to know us a bit before we show up on your wedding weekend.  You'll get comfortable with the way we work and be prepared for your portrait time during the wedding day.  Oh yeah, you'll also get a bunch of amazing images of the two of you.  Most of our couples love doing the sessions.  We photograph couples in Manhattan or up here in the Hudson Valley.  

We recommend late spring, summer or fall for the Hudson Valley.  For Manhattan we can do just about anytime of year weather permitting. 

Sessions are usually scheduled Monday through Thursdays, excluding holidays.  

Some folks call them engagement sessions.  We call them pre-wedding sessions.

ENGAGED?  A PHOTOGRAPHY PRACTICE SESSION.
