NYC Elopement Photographer

Hey there! I’m Vlad Leto, super excited to be your personal storyteller and photographer for your NYC elopement. Photography’s been my thing for a while, especially when it comes to capturing those incredible moments in life. There’s something really special about documenting love stories against the bustling backdrop of New York City.

For me, elopement photography isn’t just about snapping pictures. It’s about telling a story, your story. I’m all about catching those quick, tender moments that really show what your relationship’s about. Picture this: the soft whisper of the ocean during your cliffside ceremony, or the gentle touch of your partner’s hand. That’s the stuff I love to capture.

My whole approach to photography is about making you feel comfortable. I find that the most honest and beautiful moments come out when you’re just being yourselves. It’s not always the big, dramatic gestures – sometimes it’s a look, a laugh, or just a quiet moment together. Capturing those little things with realness and a bit of artistic flair is my goal.

Choosing a photographer for your elopement in NY is a big deal. You want someone who takes amazing photos, sure, but also someone who gets you and can guide you through the process. From our first chat to capturing your big day, I’m all about making this experience personal and true to you. I’ll be there, snapping away, making sure every emotion and celebration is caught on camera without getting in your way.

These photos are more than just pictures. They’re memories, pieces of your history you’ll look back on forever. That’s why I put so much care into selecting and editing each one, making sure they’re not just beautiful, but also full of feeling. These are the memories you’ll treasure and share for years to come.

With over 15 years experience in elopement photography, I offer my clients a personalized approach to coming up with the best elopement ideas and performing the perfect photoshoot. I started out just loving to take pictures of the everyday beauty around me. That love turned into a career where I discovered my true passion: elopement photography. My style mixes romance, intimacy, and a timeless feel, focusing on capturing the real emotions and unique vibe of each couple’s story.

New York City is a huge part of your love story when you’re here. I know this city inside out and use that to add something special to your photos, mixing the city’s energy with your personal love story.

To help you envision where your elopement could take place, here’s 3 of the most popular ideas in New York:

1. 🏛️ City Hall. City Hall is located in downtown Manhattan, and it’s very simple. You go there, wait in line for about an hour, and after a quick proceeding you’re married.
2. 🌳 Central Park. One of the most beautiful parks in the world, getting married in Central Park is always a great idea. Here’s a link where you can discover more info about Elopement in Central Park.
3. 🌉 Brooklyn Bridge Park. The park offers fantastic views of both the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridge, and afterwards you can celebrate in one of Brooklyn’s great restorations.
