Hay Adams Hotel Archives - Deb Lindsey Photography

I first met Suzanne and Ben when I arrived in NYC at the end of October for their engagement shoot. Their apartment overlooking the city was breathtaking and our whirlwind tour of their neighborhood and dinner at the fabulous Momofuku Noodle Bar and dessert from Momofuku Milk Bar were definitely foodie highlights of the trip for me. They aren’t native New Yorkers but you’d never know it—it’s always so cool for me to get shown around by people who know where they’re going! Suzanne is a decisive bride and knew that she wanted an elegant and sophisticated winter wedding. The colder the better. They got their wish with 30 degree temperatures but they were prepared–I loved her wrap and her white gloves—it just epitomized a winter wedding. They had their first look at the Hay Adams overlooking the White House and we then proceeded by vintage car driven by Suzanne’s uncle, to a church service at Memorial Metropolitan United Methodist Church near American University. Their reception at the Army Navy Club continued their theme and also included a rollicking dance party and the most fun photo booth I’ve had seen in some time. Full head masks on people in eveningwear, made for some very fun photos. 2015 is starting out on a very high note. I can’t wait photograph all the other wonderful couples I’ve got lined up for this year.
