Salina and Joe have been dear friends for years, so when it came time for their “I do’s”, I was honored to capture the special day. Their private elopement at the breathtaking grounds of the Vanderbilt Estate included parents only. Preferring the periphery rather than the center of attention, these two opted for a quiet family affair to celebrate their union with those they loved most. The biggest priority for these beautiful love birds was portraiture. With such stunning people, awe-inspiring grounds, and beautiful weather, creating an artful interpretation of their love story was a breeze. Always jetsetting off to a new exotic location for spontaneous weekend trips, Salina and Joe’s journey has been filled with spontaneity, creativity, and laughter. Experimenting with style and technique and resulting in refined, timeless, and nostalgic imagery, our portrait session was a perfect reflection of their life as a couple.

Take a leisurely stroll through the grounds and around the stone columns to see the celebration of timeless romance.
