Gorgeous Golden Hour Engagement Session at Montauk Beach, Long Island

I’m mostly based in New York City and usually shoot the urban backdrops, but sometimes I get opportunities to see other parts of New York State- haha. So for Ian and Meg’s engagement session, we ventured deep to the tip of Long Island, to Montauk. I was able to experience the serene beauty of Montauk Beach. The sun was GORGEOUS and it cast its golden hues across the horizon— and Ian and Meg's affection was so palpable — and I was so happy to be able to document that in their photographs. The entire session was so much fun and I wish them the most beautiful future together.

Columbia University Library and Riverside Drive Park Engagement Session in New York City

Sherrie and Dan both attended Teacher's College at Columbia University on the Upper West Side of NYC.  So when they asked if they could do their engagement session there-- I was really excited!!!  I don't know what it is about libraries...  ^_^  Our session began in the space where they spent most of their time studying, learning and equipping themselves to become the wonderful teachers that they are today.  Dan now teaches High Schoolers and Sherrie teaches elementary students.  I have so much respect for these two, they are excited to inspire and mentor the younger generation.  They're also extremely carefree, fun and easy to be around and talk to!!  It was a great session filled with taking polaroids of each other, singing, playing the guitar & ukulele and just really enjoying being each other's presence. We ended the night at Riverside Drive Park, and it was such a wonderful space and atmosphere to be in!  It was awesome and I can't wait to photograph their wedding day as their new york city wedding photographer! They will be having their reception at Picnic House in Prospect Park! It’s going to so rad!!!
