Charlotte + Paul - Elopement // Super 8 + Polaroids

So picking up the blog again this year to share some more work I’ve been doing. A lot to be honest! And it needs to be seen! Last summer, I shot a lovely little elopement in Chelsea, Manhattan with Charlotte and Paul who came down from Canada just for the occasion and I absolutely love their final elopement film!

I also shot a handful of Polaroids for them to memorialize the day with some tangible photos and they look amazing. This all was made even better because these two had style to match the retro analog mediums I was using. So chic! So mod! I was living for their vibe, and to top it off, we were in the iconic Hotel Chelsea.

After getting ready in the room, we headed to the rooftop for a few photos and a glass of wine, then off to Madison Square Park for their small elopement, which is impossible in NYC because the whole city is your audience and so many people stopped to watch. It was all very cute and their elopement was very sweet.

Super 8 and Polaroids are so great for elopements since it’s a more casual and fun way to remember the day as it felt like. A bit of a dream… but a great dream!
