Bryant Park Proposal Photographer

Parker's Christmas Proposal in Bryant Park NYC

Parker and I talked about finding the perfect spot for his proposal. We talked about the Rockefeller Christmas Tree, but I knew it would be way too chaotic and busy just two weeks before Christmas. If it’s hard just to walk at the Rockefeller Christmas tree, it’s going to be impossible to get down on one knee. Bryant Park features its own Christmas tree and countless holiday shops with festive decorations. The spot we chose in Bryant Park tends to be less crowded than other parts, and would feature the Empire State Building in the background of their proposal.

How Parker Proposed To Hannah

The Proposal Plan - On their trip to NYC, Hannah and Parker would checkout the Bryant Park Christmas popup shops. After touring the shops and watching the ice skaters Parker would propose.

Mrinal and Serena's Bryant Park Ice Skating Rink Proposal

By arriving early, I was able to discreetly photograph the couple skating around the Bryant Park Ice Skating Rink amongst the public. The plan: Mrinal and Serena would take a private lesson on center rink. Private lessons have are allowed on the ice longer than the general public. Then, at the end of the private lesson Mrinal would propose to Serena. I photographed their moment from the sidelines and walked around to a few different vantage points.

How to propose on the ice at Bryant Park:

Step 1 is to coordinate with the Bryant Park Ice Skating Center to obtain permission. During the holidays, the rink is very busy and a proposal on the ice with the public skating around is strictly prohibited. It would be dangerous and rink officials will stop your proposal. Working with the rink officials will provide you a safe and beautiful moment.

Step 2: Select a time and work with us to photograph the moment.

Bryant Park during the winter is a perfect place to propose and kickoff the holiday season.

Mrinal planned tonight’s proposal perfectly with friends and family in attendance. After proposing center ice, Mrinal and his new fiance skated over to an ecstatic crowd. We took several posed photos and group photos before they skated off once again. This time it was for a “victory lap”. Afterwards, we took photos inside where horderves and a cake were waiting.
