I photograph couples at the most meaningful moments of their love story: proposals, engagements, elopements and weddings in New York City.
My style is relaxed and candid: real emotions, natural connection and timeless portraits. I'll guide you gently, so you can simply enjoy your day while I capture it exactly as it feels.

Elena Kom
Proposal & Elopement photographer
Hello, I'm Elena, a couples photographer with 7 years of experience, based in New York for the past 3 years. I photograph proposals, City Hall elopements, engagements and intimate weddings.

To me, a good photo starts with feeling at ease. I guide you gently, so the moments unfold naturally and lead into classic, timeless portraits. Think of me as a witness to your love story: quietly there, noticing the details that matter to you.

(FAQ) Frequently Asked Questions

1. What locations in NYC do you recommend for a photoshoot? New York offers endless possibilities! Popular spots include:
  • Classics: Central Park (Bethesda Terrace, The Mall).
  • Urban Vibes: DUMBO with Manhattan Bridge views, SoHo, or the High Line.
  • Hidden Gems: I have a personal list of cozy rooftops and quiet West Village streets.
  • We will discuss your vision and find the perfect backdrop for your story.
2. Do you help with posing? Absolutely! I guide you throughout the process, suggesting movements and angles to make you feel comfortable and natural. We’ll keep it candid and fun - no stiff posing required.
3. What happens if it rains? NYC weather can be unpredictable. If heavy rain is forecast, we can:
  1. Reschedule to the next available date.
  2. Move to an indoor location (a cafe, hotel, or studio).
  3. Embrace the rain with stylish clear umbrellas for a cinematic New York look!
4. How soon will I receive my photos? I value your time, so I deliver the finished gallery very quickly - within 7–10 days after our shoot.
5. Is retouching included? Every photo gets my signature color grading and natural adjustments (brightness, contrast, cropping). I keep your photos true to life, so I don't do body reshaping, heavy skin smoothing or complex object removal.
6. Do you offer sunrise sessions? Highly recommended! Sunrise is the "Golden Hour" and the only time to experience iconic spots like the Brooklyn Bridge or Times Square without the crowds.
7. How do I book a session? Simply fill out the contact form on my website or reach out via Instagram/WhatsApp. A deposit is required to secure your date.

Simple Tips for Your Session

1. Be yourself
Laugh, hold each other close, be playful or calm. Real emotions make the best photos.
2. Keep it soft and natural
Fresh, light makeup and neutral, earthy tones look timeless on camera and suit any New York backdrop. Bring blotting sheets and a small brush for quick touch-ups.
3. Choose your light
Sunrise gives you quiet streets and soft light. Golden hour before sunset gives a warm glow. I'll help you pick the best time for your date.
4. Bring your ideas
Have a pose, a place or a moment in mind? Tell me, and I'll make it happen.
Layout tip: show these as four small columns with a thin line icon or a number above each. Keep the text small and the background plain, so the block feels light and doesn't compete with your photos.
