An Elopement at the New York Public Library

One of my favorite things about shooting elopements for out-of-town couples is getting to traipse through the city feeling like I'm watching a rom-com unfold in real time. Sam & Mina wanted to celebrate their love in all the dreamiest NYC locations, from a ceremony in Central Park to portraits in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New York Public Library, finishing it all off with a hot dog from the cart.
