My faith

for a better future

is in the people

who are turning the idea

of unconditional love

into a way of life.

On June 26th in honor of celebrating Pride, I had the honor of photographing a series of LGBTQ+ weddings at the iconic Rockefeller Center. Each couple brought 10 of their closest family and friends to celebrate their wedding ceremony at 620 Loft and Garden, followed by a drag show at the infamous Rainbow Room, and finally ended with portraits at Top of the Rock. It was an unforgettable day + it was an honor to get to be a part of!

Thank you to an incredible team who helped me shoot: Jen Sosa + Lindsey Shea!

XO,

Kat
