Best spots for holiday photos in NYC

December 6, 2021

Craving meaningful, one-of-a-kind holiday photos in NYC? You’re in the right place.

When I was little, there was no place on earth that felt more magical in December than New York City. I begged my mom to take me one year — and when we finally did, it felt like stepping into a dream.

I can still remember the chestnut smell in the air, the glow of the lights, the quiet hum of a city in celebration. Back then, I knew one day I’d live here, and I love that storytelling for the most amazing couples here is now my job.

As a wedding photographer, it means the world to me that I get to capture the magic for people in love and there’s something special about documenting a love story in the middle of all this holiday sparkle.

So whether you’re dreaming of an adventure through the city with a professional photographer you trust or you just want to wander with someone you love and snap a few photos along the way, here are a few of my favorite NYC spots for holiday magic. Think of this as your permission slip to get out there, savor the season, and make memories that will feel like an heirloom years from now.
