Congrats to New York City’s newest engaged couple, Lyndon and Alissa!
Planning to propose in New York City? Where in NYC is the best place to propose?
When discussing where Lyndon was going to propose, I showed Lyndon some of my favorite locations in Manhattan. Instantly, Lyndon knew he wanted to propose in Central Park. However, he wasn’t sure where in the park would be best. I suggested the area just after Central Park's Bow Bridge near the iconic Bethesda Fountain, as seen in the above photos.
As a Central Park Proposal Photographer I know where and when iT Is best to propose!
No matter the time of the day, month, or year, Central Park offers a timeless backdrop for proposal or engagement photography. During Winter, a couple can stand in the middle of a quiet Bow Bridge looking over an elegant sheet of ice covering The Lake. In the summer, Central Park offers an escape from the concrete jungle with its shaded walking paths and deep green foliage creating amazing dramatic lighting. Central Park’s different moods, views, and looks all offer an amazing backdrop for your marriage proposal photos.
Setting the mood - Hiring a musician for your proposal
Lyndon really knocked it out of the park by also hiring a guitarist to learn and then play Alissa’s favorite song. Grant, the guitarist, played as the couple walked towards the cove to checkout the view. Lyndon hugged Alissa and then dropped down to one knee.
