FEATURED FILM & photo · new YorkYour NYC Elopement, in Photo and Film
Vows in the Wind is our complete elopement package for couples getting married in NYC who want both photo and film. A photographer and a videographer cover your day as one team for up to four hours, and you walk away with 150+ edited high-resolution images, a 3 to 5 minute cinematic highlight film, and a short trailer. It costs less than booking photo and video separately, and the two crews stay coordinated all day, so no one is fighting for the same shot. It fits City Hall mornings, Central Park ceremonies, and just-the-two-of-you days in the city.
