KATELYN AND RYAN: A SWEET AND INTIMATE CELEBRATION AT A HIP BROOKLYN RESTAURANT

I was honored that Katelyn and Ryan picked us to shoot their Fall wedding at Celestine. After spending a lovely Sunday afternoon with them in the Spring for their engagement photos, I discovered that their relationship was very special and that their wedding was going to be a good one. And it totally lived up to our expectations. The venue they picked, Celestine, was a treat for our eyes – and cameras –. Tucked right beside the Manhattan Bride, Celestine boasts beautiful views on the city and the two bridges. And if you plan things well, you can have your ceremony outside right as the sun sets behind Manhattan.

That’s what Katelyn and Ryan did. After some family photos and wedding portraits around Dumbo, we all headed to Celestine for their ceremony. It started right when the sun started disappearing behind the buildings, and ended during the special Blue Hour that follows sunset. The night ended with some dancing indoors and cigar smoking outside. Celestine was the perfect venue for this laid back and intimate wedding. And I cannot wait to get back there again and shoot!
