Registered Dietitian Headshot - Marissa Campbell

Some recent Professional Headshot work photographed in Denver Colorado! No matter where we photograph headshots, the formula is the same. We photograph photos that make our subjects not only look good but feel good. Long Island, New York City, or Denver Colorado a quality portrait photo is key!

Marissa Campbell is a Registered Dietitian in Colorado. She works primarily with patients who suffer or are recovering from eating disorders.

Marissa was in need of updating her website and social platforms with a new photo of herself. She wanted something that looked clean and professional while still feeling casual and inviting.

To give Marissa options, we set up a neutral backdrop and an environmental setup. I worked on blurring the environmental shot and choosing generic, not distracting locations.

NYC or Long Island Professional Headshots

Luckily, You don’t have to travel to Colorado for great headshots. We shoot professional headshots right here on Long Island and in NYC. Whether it’s a standard corporate headshot, like for your LinkedIn profile photo, or an environmental portrait with NYC as a backdrop; having a clean professional headshot is a necessity for any professional looking to update their brand.

David and Elise - Grand Central Park (Manhattan, NY)

New York’s Central Park: A Beautiful Location to propose in any season.

Just because there is snow on the ground and a nip to the air doesn’t mean you can’t propose. In fact, the snow makes the moment that much better for memories and for photos. It’s an ideal and picturesque New York City proposal! In the city that never sleeps love has no season and no reason to stop, a winter Central Park Proposal can be a beautiful way to start the next chapter.

How to Plan a Last-Minute Secret Proposal

David got in touch with me to photograph the big moment just a few days before he wanted to propose. The plan was, he and his now fiancée-to-be, Elise, would be walking Central Park before their date at the MET. Little did Elise know, David had picked the perfect spot in the park to pop the question: Cleopatra's Needle.

Even though the day was closing in fast, David and I coordinated the logistics making sure I would be waiting to capture the moment and Elise’s friends would be waiting nearby to celebrate afterward!

Winter Engagement Photo Shoot Magic:

Hidden in the snow I waited for David and Elise to walk up the stairs to the Needle and when David dropped on one knee I was there to capture it.

She said Yes!

Elise’s friends jumped out with balloons and champagne in hand! After a toast with friends, we walked through Central Park for a mini-engagement session capturing the winter wonderland. We finished up with a few photos on the steps of the MET and then David and Elise were on their way to Celebrate.

Congrats you two!

Doug and Mackenzie - Christopher Street Pier Proposal (Manhattan, NY)

Planning a Manhattan Proposal in New York's Unpredictable Winter Weather.

Sometimes, even in the face of disaster, everything just comes together and works out. Such was the case with Doug’s plans to propose to his girlfriend Mackenzie last week.

Doug reached out a few weeks before “taking a knee” looking to hire a proposal photographer to photograph his NYC proposal.

He had already set things in motion: unbeknownst to Mackenzie, her best friends would be in town the day of to surprise her, Doug and I had picked her favorite view of the city skyline (Christopher Street Pier on the West side of New York City). Doug had ordered food from her favorite restaurant, which his brother would pick up while we were out, and make sure both the friends and food were waiting at their midtown apartment when they returned! With every detail thought out All that was left to do was… propose!

However, New York weather had other plans.

Cloudy with a chance of a Ring - Planning a proposal no matter the weather.

As the date got closer and closer ,so did the torrential rain headed to NYC, which might ruin this perfectly planned Manhattan proposal.

Doug and I watched the weather, I helped him develop Plan As, Bs, and Cs…we consulted different locations that might be better if the weather turned sour: A Grand Central Station Proposal, A High Line Proposal, A Washington Square Park Proposal. Anything that would stand out as a beautiful and meaningful New York City proposal spot that Mackenzie would remember forever.

Finally, the day came and with some stroke of luck or love, the skies cleared just in time for us to move forward with our original plan of a sunset proposal at Christopher Street Pier.

Mackenzie said “yes!”.

Baby, It’s Cold Outside…but not too cold for a Mini-Engagement Session.

Although the temperature was rather cold as the sunset, I had arrived early and scouted a few spots on the edge of the Pier for us to quickly take some posed photos with the Freedom Tower and downtown New York skyline as the backdrop. Within 15 minutes, Doug and Mackenzie were off to celebrate their engagement with friends and food.

Congrats Doug and Mackenzie!

Dillon and Leah - Surprise Long Beach,NY Proposal (Long Island)

When Dillion reached out asking me to take his proposal photos, I couldn’t have been more excited to be a part of this special moment. For Dillion and Leah, the beaches of Long Beach, NY define their relationship. In the summertime, every weekend they are on the beaches of Long Beach and every evening after work they are at a Long Beach bar trivia night.

Naturally, these two wanted to have their engagement photos taken in a place that holds SO much meaning to them — Long Beach. After meeting on Bumble, Dillion and Leah were an instant match, and quickly connected over their love of the beach and the ocean.

With the family all together for Thanksgiving, Dillon was ready to take the jump and propose to his girlfriend Leah. Since Dillon and Leah both live in Long Beach, NY and with Dillon’s parents coming to Long Island for the first time, it was sure to be a Long Island Thanksgiving to remember.

Planning this Long Island Thanksgiving Proposal

Down the street from Dillon’s house in Long Beach, NY is a private boardwalk leading to the beach. We chose this location to propose for its privacy and unobstructed view of the beach. We knew this spot would serve as the perfect spot to drop down on one knee, propose, and take great photos.

The week leading up to the proposal, Dillon and I scouted the location and discussed all the details: How he would get Leah out on the walkway, where I’d be discreetly positioned to photograph the moment, and where their families would be hiding nearby to watch the proposal.

The day-of, I arrived in Long Beach early to make sure the location was ready and the stage was set.
As Dillon and Leah walked up the boardwalk, I let them pass and waited until Dillon was in position. When he dropped to one knee I snapped away.

Photographing their post proposal Champagne Toast and mini-engagement session on the beach to celebrate.

With family and friends around we took advantage of the beautiful Long Island Gold Coast and took some group family photos on the beach. Ending with a champagne toast and photos of Dillon and Leah on Long Beach’s famous jetties.

Robert and Alexis Proposal - Thomas' School of Horsemanship

Fiancé and a Horse!

There’s no horsing around when you’re going to propose to your girlfriend!

Robert had secretly made arrangements to purchase his girlfriend’s horse “Hudson”, which she houses at Thomas’ School of Horsemanship in Melville. The two of us planned out how to get his fiance-to-be, Alexis, to the stable on a Saturday morning; coordinating around the weather, family, and making sure that Alexis had just happened to get her nails done that week!

Helping to plan a secret proposal

Robert came to me with a plan. “So Trent, my girlfriend is an equestrian and a horse trainer. I’m thinking of proposing to her at the stable she works at…oh, and I’m also going to buy her a horse. I need you to photograph the proposal and help coordinate the setup”

The pathway to this Long Island Proposal

On the day of, Alexis would arrive to find the pathway leading to Hudson’s stable lined with flowers and a plaque engraved “Owned and Loved by the Future Mrs. Rothman.” As if that wasn’t surprise enough, Robert then dropped down on one knee. Prior their arrival, I photographed the details Robert had arranged.

Once Robert and Alexis arrived, and turned around the barn Alexis quickly saw the surprise. I was ready to capture her excitement and photograph Robert as he proposed.

How could Alexis say no?

Congrats Robbert and Alexis!
