An Ellis Island Recessional with the Manhattan Skyline

Newlyweds leave their Ellis Island waterfront ceremony with the Manhattan skyline behind them.

As these newlyweds came back down the aisle after their Ellis Island ceremony, I wanted to keep the Manhattan skyline in the photograph. It’s such an iconic setting for a New York wedding, and it belongs in their story. Their celebration in the foreground and the city across the water give the image both its emotion and its sense of place. Photography by Robert Evans Imagery.

Location: Ellis Island, New York Harbor
