South Street Seaport and El Luchador Tacos Engagement Session in New York City

Jenny and Tim live nearby South Street seaport, so they wanted to do their session down there, eat some tacos at one of their fav spots and walk around Battery Gardens-- oh and bring along their (big) pup, Rosie for the shoot! It was such a fun time walking around with them, trying to include Rosie in some shots and getting to know them! I loved that we got to eat some tacos at El Luchador!! Their tacos are so delicious!! I always love combining food into my engagement and wedding sessions- which is what makes it so great to live in NYC and be a new york city wedding photographer!! I’ll be shooting their wedding next year and it’s going to be exciting! Here are some of my favorites:

A Sea Glass Carousel Engagement Session in Lower Manhattan near Battery Park

Lily and Dan set a date to do their engagement session, and as the date got closer, the weather started to look more and more cloudy on the weather app.. >_>  We decided we would chance it and wait until the last possible minute to make the final call.  Lily couldn't reschedule because she was getting her makeup trial done that day so we could do the shoot right after.  Finally when the day came- the weather app "said" that it wasn't going to rain during our time frame for the shoot so we were ecstatic!  We met at our proposed place, the Sea Glass Carousel in Lower Manhattan, New York City.  When I got there... it was POURING ;__;  Luckily it was an indoor carousel.. and even luckier was that it was empty since no one else was nearby crazy enough to come during such a huge storm.  I had a such a fun time photographing in the empty carousel and getting great shots of Lily and Dan!!!  After we felt that we had spent enough time there, the rain actually stopped and we were able to finish up the shoot outdoors and walk over to Battery Park!!!  It couldn't have worked out any more perfect! You really never know what to expect when youre trying to shoot weddings or engagements here in New York City!  

Here are some of my favorites from our session:

Battery Park City Engagement Session in New York City

Shinay and Dwayne wanted to do their engagement session in Battery Park City because that's where they used to work and spend their time together. It was an awesome time to walk around downtown Manhattan and find some unique spots to photograph the two of them in! They were great and lively to be around! I’m so glad they chose me to photograph their new york city engagement session!!! Here are some of my favorites:
