I capture the unspoken — the glances, the silences — drawing from New York's pulse and the richness of global cultures. Every wedding is its own intricate narrative. Rooted in theatre and life's everyday rhythms, I document moments both transient and timeless.

Celestine Brooklyn Wedding

On the clearest summer day, Lindsey and Esha got married at Celestine in DUMBO. The weekend started with a Mehendi party in Williamsburg and ended with an afternoon brunch wedding. They got ready at home together, which I love, and then we headed to Brooklyn Bridge Park for portraits before the ceremony.

Celestine is an Eastern Mediterranean restaurant in DUMBO with panoramic windows, Manhattan Bridge and skyline views, and a menu drawing from Lebanon, Syria, and Morocco. It is one of my new favorite Brooklyn wedding venues.

Celestine is a delightful, comfortable, sweet place to get married. Lindsey and Esha are delightful and sweet themselves. It was a perfect match.
