A New York wedding with “Classical Elegance” captured by member Chadwick Creative Arts. We’re so excited to share these beautiful photos and details about Emily and Matts wedding:
The ceremony was held on October 20, 2012 at the beautiful, historical Riverside Church on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. A reception at the elegant Carlyle Hotel on the eastern end of Central Park followed.
While it was not officially a theme, one could easily say that “Classical Elegance” was the idea behind this wedding. The bride and her father were transported to the ceremony in a beautiful 1950’s Cadillac, the church was a classic and historical work of architectural art, and the reception was held in a very elegant and beautiful historic hotel, The Carlyle.
Emily and Matt wanted a mixture of candid and formal, so I treated the day with an elegant approach to match the couple and their wishes, combined with a photojournalist approach to telling the story of their day.

Photography Equipment used: Two Canon 5D Mark IIs with a variety of lenses. Most often I used a 70-200mm/2.8 telephoto and a 24-105mm/4 telephoto. Other lenses I sometimes used based on the situation included an 85mm/1.2 and a 35mm/1.4.
