The Engagement Portraits

After giving the couple some down time from the morning's recent events, our job was to shoot engagement portraits for the couple throughout New York City.

We started out in Central Park, ironically by The Central Park Boathouse where the proposal was originally supposed to take place.

























Even in Central Park it was possible to find some great architecture to incorporate in the shoot.





















What I found particularly great about shooting in the city itself was that people were so accustomed to all sorts of activities and photo shoots going on that they weren't particularly interested in what we were doing and left us alone. The same cannot be said for many other cities and areas around the country, and I've had my own experiences within the French Quarter in New Orleans that have made shooting around crowds of people a particular challenge.
