Engagement Parties are a blast to photograph, especially when they’re in unique places like a private Southampton, NY backyard. Having photographed countless proposals, engagement sessions, engagement parties, and rehearsal dinners in New York City, it’s a real treat to leave the city for somewhere new. I started this event by capturing a mini-engagement session with the couple, Carolann and Michael with their Golden Retriever Nash. From there, I went on to photograph family photos and then the details (food, place settings, the backyard setup).
Engagement parties are a mini-wedding
Photographing NYC engagement parties can feel like a mini-wedding, as the guests are typically the most important people in the couple’s lives. These parties involve planning and coordination on every level as well. However, what’s unique is the emotions. On an engagment session and party, there are absolutely no nerves.
