A Central Park Picnic and a Proposal - Heriberto & Catherine's NYC Proposal

Finding a Proposal Photographer in NYC

Heriberto reached out to wanting a proposal photographer to help him and his soon-to-be fiancée, Catherine, remember their time living and exploring NYC. Heriberto wanted his photos to highlight the NYC skyline, Central Park, and the unique moments a one can have living in this great city.

About the couple….


He and Cathrine would be moving from New York to Boston next month, so Heriberto planned to make this surprise proposal as New York as possible. To make sure the moment went off without a hitch he need an experienced NYC Proposal Photographer to document the moment.

Central Park was his proposal location of choice. The couple had spent many sunny days hanging out in “The Great Lawn”, so he thought it would be the perfect spot for a picnic, and the big suprise.

“Satur-date in the park”

Heriberto and I planned out the day for his secret proposal. He and Cathrine would spend the morning in a rowboat near the Loeb Boathouse, and then pick up their Perfect Picnic basket just outside the park, and then walk to The Great Lawn where I, their secret proposal photographer, would be waiting for them.

Whether it’s hiding in bushes or in the night, an NYC Proposal Photographer stays out of sight!

I spotted the two when they entered the park and discreetly took photos before the big moment as they set their picnic up. When the time was right Heriberto pulled the ring out and got down on one knee and…..

Cathrine said yes! She was so surprised and excited. The two celebrated with Champagne before we roamed around for a mini-engagement shoot. It was quite the perfect sunny Saturday afternoon in Central Park.
