Where the Day Begins

The hour before a wedding is unlike any other. It's nervous energy and quiet moments, laughter and tears, a borrowed something and a last look in the mirror before everything changes. Getting ready photos tell the beginning of your story — and they're often the ones couples reach for first when they open their gallery.

I photograph getting ready sessions at venues, hotels, and private spaces across New York City — from suites at The Plaza and The Pierre to apartments in Park Slope and brownstones in Brooklyn Heights. Wherever you're getting ready, I'll be there to document it honestly and beautifully.
