Charlotte + Paul - Elopement // Super 8 + Polaroids

February 10, 2025

So picking up the blog again this year to share some more work I’ve been doing. A lot to be honest! And it needs to be seen! Last summer, I shot a lovely little elopement in Chelsea, Manhattan with Charlotte and Paul who came down from Canada just for the occasion and I absolutely love their final elopement film!

I also shot a handful of Polaroids for them to memorialize the day with some tangible photos and they look amazing. This all was made even better because these two had style to match the retro analog mediums I was using. So chic! So mod! I was living for their vibe, and to top it off, we were in the iconic Hotel Chelsea.

After getting ready in the room, we headed to the rooftop for a few photos and a glass of wine, then off to Madison Square Park for their small elopement, which is impossible in NYC because the whole city is your audience and so many people stopped to watch. It was all very cute and their elopement was very sweet.

Super 8 and Polaroids are so great for elopements since it’s a more casual and fun way to remember the day as it felt like. A bit of a dream… but a great dream!

Tori + Eric - Wedding // Super 8 + Polaroids

April 21, 2023

With a little bit of a wedding backlog, this one is from before the world went crazy. It’s Tori and Eric’s Hudson Valley wedding on Super 8 and Polaroids! They had a lovely little ceremony upstate in the Hudson Valley literally overlooking the Hudson River. It was stunning! Take a look below!

I also was shooting a bit of instant film that day and got some truly wonderful moments on the custom Instax camera I was using. The black and white instant film really just fits so well with weddings. So classic and chic!

Brittany & Alex - Wedding // Super 8 + Polaroids

February 12, 2019

A wedding on a lake house in Connecticut where the bride and groom are entering the cocktail hour on a motorboat? And I’m there to capture it all on Super 8? Count me in. Plus, Brittany and Alex were such a fun and chill couple and their family and friends were a blast. And to top it off, their photographer, Dan Crosley, would be photographing the whole thing on film as well. A 100% film wedding! So rad! Take a peek at their Super 8mm wedding film below as well as some of the instant photos I took.

As much as I love New York City, any New Yorker will admit to wanting to get out of the city for a break and soak in some nature. So getting to capture a wedding at a family lake house with the ceremony taking place right on the water was absolutely amazing. Right after their ceremony on the waterfront, the couple hopped on a bona fide yellow school bus and jetted over to the other side of the lake for some portraits.

This all leading up to some friends in a motorboat arriving to pick them up at sunset and shuttling them across the lake to the all of the wedding guests eagerly waiting for them to arrive. It was pretty fantastic. Then the fun just kept going with their dancing-filled reception and some hysterical toasts. What an evening and so happy for them as they start life together!

Britt & Kyle - Wedding // Super 8

October 17, 2018

Last winter, I got to shoot another very special wedding to me, my own sister! I actually shot both Super 8 and digital (Alarming I know!) during the wedding which took place on the beaches of Key West, Florida! You can see their wedding film below!

Packing light as I had just come from a trip to Argentina, I arrived with my wife and just a small backpack. But given that it’s on a beach, tons of clothing isn’t really necessary. This was a small, intimate ceremony with just close family and friends on the beach and officiated by our dad. Given the casual nature of the wedding, it was easy and fun to roam around with my sister and her future husband and capture the day.

I shot the Super 8 wedding film and the digital photos as a gift to my wonderful and sometimes feisty sister. I love her and was happy to help in any way I could to make her wedding day special. Enjoy the film and the rare occasion for me to post digital photos here!

Jessica & Jeremy Wedding // Super 8 + Polaroids

June 20, 2018

Jessica and Jeremy are a special one for me... mainly because they are related to me! Jessica is my sister-in-law and now Jeremy will be my brother-in-law. I was a guest at this wedding but as any photographer knows, it's hard to resist taking some photos and Jessica had actually reached out beforehand asking if I didn't mind taking a few. Uh... Yes!

This was a bit of a trip for me since this is only the second time I've ever been to the west coast! Last time I was out there was when I got engaged!

But anyways! The wedding took place in Camarillo about an hour north of LA, where they have been living, on a beautiful avocado/blueberry farm called Gerry Ranch. I must say farm weddings on the west coast are just about everything a film photographer could ask for. Great light. Great landscape. Obviously fantastic weather! I'm in.

Even so, I tried to not be that obnoxious guest with the big camera poking my way into the shots and had a great time shooting alongside Brittany of BKM Photography. She quickly fell in love with the Polaroids and Super 8 and was even shooting a bit of film herself. I was going around with my lovely Polaroid 110B with Instax Wide and expired Polaroid 689 film, my Polaroid SLR680 with Polaroid Originals color film and then Super 8 on my small Nizo 156 Macro and some glorious Fuji Provia shipped from Japan by Retro8. I don't travel light when it comes to cameras...

This time it's a mini wedding film as I was a seated guest doing my best to behave. Also it's actually an excerpt out of the 2 rolls of Super 8 I shot during the road trip my wife and I did while in the LA area. One day I'll get that up on the blog! You can see Jess's mini film below!

Overall, a really fun wedding with family and I was more than thrilled to capture a few moments of it on film.
