Further up in Westchester County, Tappan Hill Mansion sits on a hilltop in Tarrytown overlooking the Hudson River, where we photographed a ceremony on the stone terrace above the water. See the photographs and our planning notes

New York City, Long Island & nearby

Let the city be part of the story.

From an intimate neighborhood celebration to a wedding with several locations, the best plan leaves room for the places and the people you chose.

Five boroughs

One city. Many ways to celebrate.

We serve weddings across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Share the exact venue and any portrait stops so we can confirm availability and shape the coverage around your plans.

Build each journey into the schedule, including getting downstairs, meeting transportation and arriving at the next location. A shorter portrait route can mean more time with your guests.

Long Island & nearby celebrations

Keep every address in the plan.

We also serve Long Island. If your day combines the city with a celebration beyond it, share all the locations at the inquiry stage so the proposal reflects the complete route.

Planning somewhere else nearby? Send your date and venue address. Our team will confirm availability, coverage and any travel details.

Portrait locations

Choose meaning over extra stops.

A meaningful street, your venue or a place close to the ceremony can be enough. Confirm access and any permissions with the venue or location operator, then allow time to enjoy the portraits instead of rushing between settings.

Weather & timing

Have a plan that can move with you.

Choose an indoor or covered alternative for outdoor portraits. Share the family group list and traditions early, and agree which photographs take priority if the weather or schedule changes.

The details that help most: getting-ready addresses, ceremony and reception locations, the people needed for family photographs, and any access instructions from your venue or planner.
