Stepping into the Vanderbilt Mansion in Hyde Park feels like entering a time capsule. Amidst its grandeur, Maria and Ryan's engagement session took on a magical quality, showcasing the stunning architecture and the genuine emotions they exchanged. The decision to capture many of their photographs in black-and-white photography was more than just a stylistic choice—it became a storyteller. Black-and-white imagery has a unique ability to transcend trends, focusing instead on the pure emotion and connection between two people. Maria and Ryan are set to tie the knot this summer in Poughkeepsie, NY, and their story unfolded beautifully against the backdrop of Vanderbilt Mansion. It's always a pleasure to capture images amidst such a historic and picturesque setting, and their energy makes every frame a breeze. One of the most captivating aspects of this session was the pure connection between Maria and Ryan.

I had the pleasure of photographing Olivia and Daniel amidst the pitter-patter of raindrops. The weather may have been difficult, but it added a unique charm to their special day. Despite the rain, Olivia's megawatt smile lit up every frame. Her expressiveness and excitement were contagious, and it was evident that nothing could dampen their spirits. One might think a rainy day would hinder outdoor photography, but it can elevate the artistry to new heights. Rainy days bring a moodiness, an atmosphere, and a depth that bright, sunny days often lack. Olivia and Daniel were true troopers. They embraced the weather and were willing to venture outdoors for portraits. The umbrella added visual interest and symbolized their unity and closeness, becoming characters in their story. As a photographer, I've learned that some of my most memorable and cherished photos were taken in the rain. It challenges you to think creatively, to play with light and reflections, and to capture raw, genuine emotions. To all the couples planning their big day, don't let a little rain scare you. Embrace it and dance in it. You'll be amazed at how beautiful the photographs will turn out. www.krutickphotography.com

Samantha and Brian contacted me just five days before their big day, seeking a photographer to capture candid moments with elegance and artistry. The venue, Briarcliff Manor, added its own touch to the day. A historic estate in the picturesque Hudson Valley with sprawling grounds, elegant architecture, and breathtaking views, Briarcliff Manor, provided the perfect backdrop for Samantha and Brian's festivities. One of the most delightful aspects of this wedding was Samantha and Brian's creative ideas. They infused their personalities into every detail, from the charming winter-themed décor to the delectable treats that left everyone smiling.
