A PROPOSAL
by 2nd Story Studio
Katie + Griffith
River Café + Barbuto | June 25–26, 2027
A Wedding Weekend in The City
The River Café in June. An intimate ceremony in the garden, overlooking the water, and dinner with your families and closest friends. A first look that belongs just to the two of you. Proper couple portraits. Griffith gets his cocktail hour (the couple's favorite part). Cozy coverage of an intimate, candle-lit dinner with your favorite people.
Now, for the party: Barbuto. More friends, fewer formalities. We start with portraits with your besties before guests arrive. As the space fills, the photographs shift with the energy: direct flash, dancing, glamour, and a packed room celebrating the two of you.
The lived-in moments, the funny ones, and everything in between. Documentary style coverage captured on medium format, 35mm, and digital woven together throughout the weekend. Photographs that feel fun, emotionally observant, and completely yours.
A wedding weekend in the city you chose to call home. All your people celebrating Katie + Griffith 4ever <3
