Kellen & Paul's Intimate & Artistic Brooklyn, New York Wedding
New York City is full of stunning wedding locations, but there’s something truly special about an intimate, personal wedding set against the vibrant energy of Brooklyn. Paul and Kellen’s wedding was a beautiful blend of artistic expression, deep connection, and heartfelt moments, making for an unforgettable day filled with love and meaning.
A Love Story That Spans Cities
Paul proposed to Kellen in their previous home in San Francisco, and since then, the couple has built a life together in New York City. Their wedding was a reflection of their journey—personal, unique, and full of the little moments that make love stories so special.
Honoring a Legacy Through Music
One of the most touching elements of the day was the way Kellen honored her late father. A talented musician, he passed away earlier in her life but left behind a love for music that she carries with her. During the reception, they played some of his songs, filling the space with warmth, energy, and a deep sense of connection. It wasn’t just a dance party—it was a celebration of love, family, and the legacies that shape us.
A Scenic Stroll Through Brooklyn
The day started off cloudy, adding a soft, romantic feel to the intimate ceremony held at a private Brooklyn location. By the time golden hour arrived, the sun peeked through, casting a warm glow over the city skyline. We took a walk through Brooklyn, capturing stunning portraits with iconic urban backdrops that reflected their love for their home and each other.
A Relaxed & Stylish Reception at Aurora
After an emotional and heartfelt ceremony, the couple chose Aurora in Brooklyn for an intimate dinner party with their closest friends and family. Originally, they had considered Central Park, but the logistics of planning a large public event led them to opt for something more low-key and personal. The cozy, atmospheric setting of Aurora was the perfect choice, allowing them to focus on what truly mattered—celebrating with the people they love most.
Capturing Love in NYC, D.C., & Richmond
This wedding was a perfect reminder that love stories are best told in personal, meaningful ways. If you're planning a small, artistic, and intimate wedding in New York City, Washington D.C., or Richmond, Virginia, I’d love to help you capture those unforgettable moments. Whether it’s a Brooklyn rooftop, a D.C. garden, or a historic Richmond venue, let’s create something timeless together.
