Jack's Sunday Morning Central Park Marriage Proposal

What makes proposing at Ladies Pavilion on Central Park’s West Side so special is its view, a mix of nature and the midtown skyline. A short trip in to the park from Manhattan’s West Side, you’ll have bits of the Manhattan skyline as the backdrop to your moment, and water from the boat lake surrounding you. Lastly, it’s relatively private compared to other more southern parts of New York City’s Central Park.

Zack and Mia's Central Park Summer Proposal

Zack couldn’t have chosen a more perfect evening to pop the big question, as this late summer evening felt more like an early September day; soft lighting and a cool breeze. I’m so glad I was chosen as their proposal photographer to document a real NYC moment in Central Park. Both of their reactions were so genuine, and having family there to celebrate the moment made everything so much more special.

working with a Proposal Photographer at sunset

For tonight’s proposal we timed the moment with the sunset. Zack arrived right on time (No what, matter we always come prepared with a small flash). On tonight’s secret proposal, I still had plenty of daylight to work with as the couple approached and I did not need to use flash, so the element of surprise remained. Once Zack got down on one knee and popped the question I was snapping away.
