An Astoria Park Engagement | Jennifer and Nick | Queens, NY

When Jennifer and Nick reached out to me to be their wedding photographer for their big day at The Vineyards at Aquebogue, I immediately said yes. It's one of my favorite venues on the north fork, providing so many options for taking beautiful photographs. With access to their vines and property, it's not difficult to find multiple locations to get away from the wedding crowd.

But I want to clarify that this is not an advertisement for the venue. I simply love the place!

As a wedding photographer, I'm always thrilled when my couples want to celebrate their love in their own unique way. Jennifer and Nick are no exception. They believe in doing their wedding their way, with their own traditions, and celebrating their love. This is why I'm excited to be their wedding photographer.

For their engagement session, we chose Astoria Park, which holds a special place in their relationship. They grew up near the park and have many fond memories there, so it made sense to photograph their engagement there. Although we experienced some light drizzles during the shoot, we were able to capture stunning photos of this beautiful couple during the gorgeous golden hour. And the Triborough Bridge provided some refuge from the rain, which made for some lovely shots.

I cannot wait to capture their big day next year! It's going to be a beautiful celebration of their love, and I'm honored to be a part of it.
