Sagaponack Farm Distillery Wedding Reception - Hamptons Wedding Photographer
Sagaponack Farm Distillery Wedding Reception in the Hamptons
Ashton & Harry eloped in a NYC Town Hall ceremony on 10.26.23, and I had the pleasure of capturing not only their elopement, but their Sagaponack Farm Distillery Hamptons wedding reception two days later! Both days were incredibly beautiful. I loved the focus Ashton & Harry had on enjoying their time, and having me document their day organically, rather then planning their day around photos. Sagaponack Farm Distillery is a gorgeous venue in the Hamptons of Long Island. It truly is one of a kind, and a stunning place for an outdoor reception. Ashton’s makeup was done by Angela Zavala, one of my top recommended vendors! Her gown by Watters, “the Clara” truly flattered her in such a stunning way. She chose a stunning pair of Dolce Vita shoes & Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 perfume, and Harry chose a Rolex watch to compliment his tux.
As a Hamptons wedding photographer, I always enjoy seeing new and exciting venues, and I really enjoyed working at Sagaponack Farm Distillery for the first time!

The Hamptons in New York has long been renowned as a captivating destination, enticing visitors with its stunning landscapes and beaches. But beyond its allure as a summer retreat, the Hamptons has emerged as a highly sought-after wedding destination. Couples from around the world are captivated by the Hamptons' distinctive charm, combining luxury with a laid-back coastal vibe. The region offers a plethora of elegant venues, from mansions with stunning gardens, to waterfront estates. With its rich history, exclusive atmosphere, and breathtaking views, the Hamptons has firmly positioned itself as a haven for those seeking a truly unforgettable wedding experience.
Ashton & Harry opted to do a simple first look in the backyard of the airbnb Ashton and her girls stayed at. I really enjoyed doing the first look in this way, as it really felt more organic and less curated. It also took the pressure off of the couple to not have to follow a rigid timeline.
The couple and their family did a quick toast before heading to the venue. I highly recommend opting out of the speeches in front of all your guests in favor of a smaller toast with your immediate family! It’s so meaningful and can really take the pressure off of a couple who doesn’t love all eyes on them!
Once we made it to the venue, we took some gorgeous family & bridal party photos, and the light was just right for these stunning portraits!
A trend I’ve been seriously loving is the no bouquets trend. Don’t get me wrong, I love a gorgeous floral bouquet - but there’s something to special about the beauty of the bride on her own.
Ashton picked the most gorgeous and timeless color pallet for her bridesmaids! It complimented the black tie apparel of the groomsmen so well - and was truly stunning against the background of greenery at Sagaponack Farm Distillery.
We also did a quick portraits session of Ashton & Harry, which was briefly photobombed by some of their guests passing by!
One thing I loved about Harry & Ashton’s elopement two days prior, is that it took a lot of pressure of off them to get a ton of photos! We took 5 minutes to get these GORGEOUS photos.
As your New York documentary style wedding photographer, I am always looking to shoot iconic dance floor moments in a “paparazzi” inspired way!
Dinner was under the gorgeous twinkling lights, and we captured some photos of the couple and their guests interacting and enjoying each other’s company. Instead of a traditional speech, Ashton & Harry said their vows in front of all of their guests, since they had eloped days prior!

I love capturing the guests in this way, just interacting with each other! I truly feel the images of your guests smiling and laughing will mean that much more to you in the years to come. I always say, the pretty detail photos are for you today - the candid timeless photos of your guests are for you in 10 years.
As a New York documentary style wedding photographer, I aim to capture all of the intimate emotions of the day - from touching, tearful moments to pure joy on the dance floor!
Another trend I’m obsessed with is the simple and vintage wedding cakes. It’s so timeless and gorgeous!
