Jack's NYC Proposal at The Edge overlooking Hudson Yards

As a Secret Proposal Photographer in NYC, I have photographed countless marriage proposals all throughout New York City and Long Island. However, photographing at The Edge in Hudson Yards, with its stunning views of NYC, is special. Your photos at The Edge will have unobstructed views of New York City, whether that’s looking uptown, downtown, towards Brooklyn, New Jersey, and Long Island.

Finding the best spot to propose in NYC can be challenging! How to choose a spot.

When Jack inquired about hiring a proposal photographer, he knew where, when, and how he was going to propose to his girlfriend Tamara. His plan was to propose at The Edge first thing in the morning, and honestly, that’s one of the best times and places to propose. Proposing in the morning not only makes for great photos (the lighting is GREAT), but an amazing full day of celebrating. After you propose, you can get brunch and enjoy the rest of the day with your new fiance, family, and friends.

Steps to hiring a Proposal Photographer for the Edge at Hudson Yards

Planning this unique proposal location requires some coordination and planning. First, you have to purchase your photographer a ticket. Select a ticket time 1 hour before your proposal, so he/her are in their spot and ready to go before you arrive to the top of The Edge. Once you’re up top, on The Edge, you’re allowed to stay there. There is no time limit.

Make sure your photographer knows where the best lighting is and where the crowds are not. On today’s proposal, I arrived 1 hour early to scope out the location. Then, I sent Jack instructions on where to go (see below)
