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.

Proposing in Brooklyn Bridge Park at Sunset is the best place to propose in Brooklyn

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.

Early Fall Morning Family Sessions In Central Park are the best.

As a New York family photographer I’ve worked all over place, from Long Island’s beaches to upstate NY’s vineyards and lakes, and from the Upper East Side to Prospect Park. With my experience I’ve been able to successfully help families plan their own unique family photo sessions by offering real recommendations, not ones pulled off of Google. I understand the factors that come in to play when planning and photographing family photos; the children’s ages, the family’s personality, the look and feel you want to achieve, likes/dislikes, where are we photographing, the time of year, and the time of day we are photographing.

Living in NYC offers countless opportunities. However, one of my favorite locations for outdoor photography time and time again is Central Park. I’ve worked as a Central Park family photographer in every season and every weather condition imaginable. Each location within the park, each time of the day, each time of the week, and each time of the year offers its very own unique look and feel.

Photographing a Secret DUMBO Proposal Late September Evening

DUMBO and the area around the Brooklyn Bridge Park facing West is a great choice for your sunset proposal. Brooklyn Bridge Park is not only well maintained and not terribly busy, but iconic for its views of lower Manhattan, the World Trade Center, and of course the Brooklyn Bridge. The lighting in Brooklyn in the late afternoon provides a ton of locations and angles to photograph as the warm sun sets. This part of Brooklyn has so much character for its look and feel of the buildings, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the park that your photos will be guaranteed unique.

Leaders on Purpose

Leaders on Purpose 2022 is an event focussed around the UN General Assembly. This year’s event featured panel discussions, 1-1 on conversations, audience Q&As, and speakers. The 2 day event at the Javits Center in NYC took place both during the day and at night through New York City.

I photograph events of all sizes and with varying restrictions; no flash, no moving during the presentation, and only photograph the first few minutes. During speeches I can either be a fly on the wall or I can quietly walk around capturing reaction photos and new perspectives of the event. It’s up to you.

Jacob and Ashley's West Village Engagement Session

The most asked question: “Where should we take our engagement photos?”

My go to answer is pick a place with meaning and significance to you both. If you spent every Sunday getting to know one another in Central Park, then let’s photograph your NYC Engagement photos in Central Park. Or pick a place that matches your look and feel. For Jacob and Ashley, the West Village and the Meat Packing District checked all of the boxes.

NYC provides so many different looks and feels within a short distance. You can walk in those heels during your engagement session and conquer.

On today’s engagement session, we started off in the Meatpacking District, walked along the High Line, and then wound up in the West Village. We captured the cobblestone streets, great architecture, design, and some of New York City’s most iconic views.

Knowing your couple, allows you to know their style.

Having photographed their surprise proposal last Spring on Pier 17, I had gotten to know Jacob and Ashley’s style; simple and down to earth. We chose the Meatpacking District Manhattan for it’s timeless look, and then we coordinated on outfits. Ashely wanted something that would pop amongst the grays of the city and the grey of the day, and she totally rocked it. Jacob, wanted comfortable, but a little more fun. He also wanted to compliment his fiance. Success!
