Sam's Domino Park Williamsburg Brooklyn Sunset Proposal

I was so excited to share my favorite photos from Sam and Ruby’s surprise proposal in Williamsburg, Brooklyn! I love when new client’s reach out super excited because we photographed their friend’s surprise NYC marriage proposal. As New York City’s leading secret marriage proposal photographer, we are taken to the city’s top destinations, sometimes public and other times private. Domino Park along the East River waterfront is just one of those special places; minimal tourists, amazing view, and a ton of awesome places nearby to explore.

Thomas' Brooklyn Bridge Park Proposal

As a New York City proposal photographer I can confidently say “I LOVE MY JOB and I so dearly love this city”. Being able to be the first person to say “Congrats” and to be able to document the moment, and the moments that follow is amazing. The Brooklyn waterfront from Brooklyn Bridge Park to Williamsburg is a great place to capture your big moment with context. Our favorite spot in Brooklyn Bridge Park is right near the carousel as the World Trade Center and Brooklyn Bridge lineup perfectly behind you. Anik chose the perfect place with the perfect weather and lighting for his surprise proposal.

Stephen's Brooklyn Bridge Park Morning Proposal

When is the best time to propose?

Proposing in the morning has so many benefits, especially in New York City. My top reasons to propose in the morning are:

• Get it done and have the rest of the day to celebrate! Plan a post proposal brunch and then call your family/friends to share the news.

• Beat the crowds - Most NY’ers and tourists alike don’t really start their day until noon. That’s when all the good spots start to get busy.

• Lighting - The morning has GREAT light and lets us photograph in places we could not otherwise.

I know not everyone is a morning person, however the best way to get your partner out and about is by promising a coffee and a pastry. Real New Yorkers can’t say no to a good pastry and a coffee. Walk the park or that special place with a coffee in one hand and your partners hand in the other. I know it may be a bit cliche, but nothing beats a morning coffee and an empty city. Your partner will forget about the early wakeup when you ask the big question.

Jane's Carousel DUMBO Proposal at Sunset

Omar chose a very special place for his surprise proposal. He worked with Celestine DUMBO to use their back patio on the one night of the week they are closed for his secret Brooklyn Bridge proposal. This private space allowed Omar to decorate and be out of site. The cover of the restaurant also gave him a reason to get dressed up nicely, a place to go, and a reason to be there at a set time without raising suspicion.

PHOTOGRAPHING A DUMBO BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK PROPOSAL

DUMBO and the area around the Brooklyn Bridge Park facing West is a great option for a sunset proposal and photography session. The lighting in DUMBO provides a ton of spots and angles to photograph as the warm sun sets. This part of Brooklyn has so much character in the look and feel of the buildings, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the park that your photos will be guaranteed unique.

An Afternoon Proposal in Brooklyn Bridge Park

Deciding where to propose in New York City - Think about this…

I always recommend choosing a place with meaning. Perhaps it’s your favorite spot in a park, that place you went on your first date, or where you made one of your best memories. For Justin, the hilltop overlooking Lower Manhattan and the Manhattan Bridge was that spot.
