NYC elopement // danielle + mike

A sweet little NYC elopement full of so much fun and love – that’s the way I would describe Danielle + Mike’s wedding day.

I’ve known Danielle for A LONG TIME. She is the best high school friend of one of my best college friends, so we basically share a love for a cute little girl named Marlena. We had no problem becoming friends right from the start, some 15 years ago. Although, honestly – I don’t see Danielle having a hard time being anyone’s friend. She’s funny, smart, to-the-point-no-bullshit, but still SO WARM. I just met Mike on their wedding day, but I could see immediately why she loved him – cause he’s the same. They get each other.

I was thrilled to photograph her beautiful wedding day + to document these loving moments of their most important people. SO MUCH BELOW, PEOPLE.

The gorgeous bride + dapper groom moments after arriving to City Hall.

Gotta get a shot with the indoor mural.

City hall ceremonies are fast. Totally efficient, man. But did Danielle + Mike bring their own level of love to it. LOOK AT ALL THAT JOY.

MARRIED!

The new Mr. + Mrs.!

Is there anything more NYC than this? NOPE.

Quick! Catch!

 

Danielle + Mike, there aren’t enough words for how much I enjoyed your wedding day, how honored I am to have photographed it and how much love I wish you as you continue your lives together. BEST WISHES ALWAYS. Xo, Lauren
