Beth + Colin

At first, when we were approached to shoot a rooftop wedding, lit mostly by candle light, above the Park Hyatt in Yorkville, of course the photo-nerds in us were excited.
It was only after sitting down to meet Beth and Colin did we realize that the spectacular panoramas of the city, and the perfectly dramatic light would easily play the background role to the unbelievable love they have for each other. Just after some excellent family speeches, Colin played Beth a song that he wrote for her that likely had Kleenex's stock rise by 20% - there wasn't a dry eye in the house.
It was that kind of night...a celebration, full of warm stories, big laughs, and lots of love.

A Secret Workspace

Sometimes if you visit the right building you come across the perfect space.
Be it perfect for a coffee, a photo shoot, a friendly talk, a quick "make-out sesh", or just some city people watching.

If you shake the right hands, give a wink, catch a nod, and know the "secret password" you can have access to some pretty amazing spaces in this great city of ours. We found such a place a few weeks ago and had a light brainstorming session at this rooftop green room/patio.

Points if you can guess where we were.
