Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life. It's a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments that you will cherish forever. As a husband and wife team, we at Alex + Jess Photography believe in the importance of capturing these moments in a unique and creative way that reflects who you are, and what your relationship is. We specialize in creative wedding and elopement photography in New York City, and we're here to help you capture the magic of your wedding.

Capturing the Magic

When it comes to wedding and elopement photography, it's not just about taking pictures of the two of you. It's about capturing the unique story of your day and all of the moments that make your wedding special and unforgettable (from special gifts, to the tears to the kids and grandparents that are present. This comes by focusing on capturing candid, natural moments that tell the story of the day, allowing them to happen naturally rather than posing or directing. This lets us capture the raw emotion and beauty of your day in a way that is unique and personal to you.

One of the ways we capture candid moments is by getting to know you on a personal level. We want to know your story - it’s the first thing we’ll ask about! The better we know your personalities, your vision, your wedding day goals, the more we can anticipate moments and capture them in a way that is authentic to you.

We also prioritize the little details that make your wedding day unique. From the intricate lace on your wedding dress to the floral arrangements, all of those small details are what make the day special. We understand that these details are an essential part of the story of your day, and we capture them in a way that is both artistic and personal.

Creativity in Wedding Photography

Creativity is key when it comes to wedding photography. It’s what makes this fun for both us and you, and we're committed to constantly striving for creativity and capturing images that you haven't seen before. Our creative approach is all about finding unique locations, using creative compositions, and capturing unusual angles or perspectives. We want to create images that are as unique and special as you are on your wedding day.

We're always on the lookout for new and exciting locations to take photos. Whether it's a hidden alleyway in the city, a beautiful park in the suburbs, or hiking to the top of the nearest mountain (or skyscraper) We also make sure to get creative with lighting to create stunning and memorable images.

In addition to unique locations and lighting, we also capture unusual angles or perspectives. We believe that taking a different approach to capturing images can result in some of the most memorable shots of your day. Whether it's capturing the two of you through a reflection in a puddle, shooting through a window, or through the legs of a giant dancing robot, we're always looking for ways to push the boundaries of creativity to find something unique.
