Somehow these two people who were MADE FOR EACH OTHER met in the largest city in the US. Brent and Carly are goofy, witty, and just well rounded people. I don’t think I have met two people so comfortable around each other — finishing each other’s sentences and thoughts, but more importantly, knowing the other person’s food order whenever we ate anywhere.

I flew to NYC to photograph their engagement session, but it was a little different than my normal engagement sessions. Carly and Brent eloped a few months prior to their session with me,  but they were having a formal ceremony and reception in Ohio after they had eloped. I absolutely love how nontraditional their entire love story is.

So, to continue… my assistant, Katie and I flew to NYC and spent the weekend with Carly and Brent. We ate sandwiches at the deli under their apartment, bagels the next morning (BEST bagel I have ever had in my life– with fresh strawberry cream cheese..), PLUS delicious pizza and beer. It was my first time in New York, so I was completely amazed at pretty much everything. There is a completely different energy than little ol’ Knoxville, Tennessee… and people nod or wave when they pass you on the street. 😉

I am so excited to finally share this amazing session with all of you, because it truly captures how much fun they are to be around!
