Last weekend, I flew up to New York City for Emily + Jon’s engagement session. This was a very special session for me because I’ve known Emily for over 4 years now. I first met her when her brother Brendan married Francesca back in 2014. Emily was a bridesmaid in that wedding and she also happens to be best friends with Francesca’s sister, Nola, whose engagement session I photographed in NYC back in 2014 as well. I feel like I’m part of the extended Whalen-Seta family now, so I was THRILLED when Emily asked me to photograph her wedding next fall!
I absolutely LOVE traveling so when Emily + Jon suggested doing their engagement session in their hometown of NYC, it was an immediate YES!!! Together, they chose some amazing spots around the city, including the Conservatory Garden, the Bethesda Terrace area in Central, the steps of The Met, and some cute residential areas on the Upper East Side. Although there was a light rain all day, the weather was actually great. The light was PERFECT and the rain allowed us to grab some INCREDIBLE photos on the steps of The Met since no one was really sitting on the wet steps. THANK YOU Mother Nature!!
I cannot wait for Emily + Jon’s wedding next year in St. Augustine, but for now, please enjoy some of my favorites from their fabulous engagement session in New York City…

Ashley + Kyle’s wedding day was, in a word, magic. These two share such a beautiful love and I am beyond thankful to have witnessed it first hand. Ashley is pure JOY in human form and she absolutely glows in Kyle’s presence. The way they look at each other and care for each other is […]
From the moment I first spoke to Sandra, I knew her wedding day was going to be something special. She had a clear vision of a day filled with special details, personalized moments, and a celebration of love that was truly unique to her and Matt’s love story. Being in the fashion world, I knew […]
There’s something undeniably magical about Charleston SC. The cobblestone alleyways, the historic charm, and the gentle breeze off of the water – which creates the perfect setting for love to flourish. When I had the opportunity to capture Hannah + Ashley’s engagement session on an overcast day this past September, I knew it would be […]
Hilton Head is a special place to Abby + Greyson, as Abby’s parents live there and she’s been visiting the area for years. I always love how the magic of Hilton Head and Sea Pines brings families together on such an incredible day. This September wedding day at Sea Pines started off with torrential rain […]
Somehow, it’s already February and I just realized that I haven’t posted my year-end recap from 2024. Yikes! Better late than never, I suppose! If I’m being totally honest and transparent, 2024 was a difficult year for me + my mindset. Self-doubt, not knowing where I “fit in”, feeling jealousy of other photographers, and not […]
I met up with Nicole + Thomas last summer for their engagement session out on Folly Beach. They found me through another one of my couples, whose wedding I photographed at Sea Pines last winter, and I was thrilled when they asked me to photograph their Charleston wedding! I loved spending the evening with them […]
