Central Park Maternity Photoshoot – NYC Maternity Photographer

Pregnancy is a special time in a woman’s life and no matter if it’s winter, spring, summer or fall, having a Central Park Maternity Photoshoot is always magical. It’s no wonder that most of my clients from NYC and from out of town all want to have their maternity photos in Central Park. The park is enormous and it offers so many beautiful locations to have your photos taken. There are so many beautiful locations which offer beautiful backgrounds that include trees, water, fountains, bridges, the terrace, rocks and of course some of the buildings.

For this photoshoot we took some photos with some greenery in the background and then finished up the photoshoot by Bethesda Terrace and Bethesda Fountain, two landmarks in Central Park. Since it was a very hot day we were able to hide in the terrace for a bit to cool off.

Central Park Wedding Photographer

Central Park Wedding Photographer

I don’t think anyone anticipated it to be 95 degrees in May for this Central Park Wedding, not even the bride and groom. Thankfully my bride and groom were troopers in the heat. With a beautiful location like Central Park for your wedding, you certainly can’t go wrong. After all, it is one of the most beautiful parks in NYC and it truly is a photographer’s paradise!

We started day with the bride getting ready in Queens. Evelyn & Brian had their first look just outside the hotel just before traveling into the city for their beautiful Central Park wedding ceremony by the Lakeview. The Lakeview offers a beautiful view of the lake, the boats, and the NYC buildings in the background and is conveniently tucked away from the main paths, allowing for a private small intimate ceremony. But this was not the only reason why they chose to have their ceremony there. If you recall this couple’s Central Park proposal from last year, Brian proposed to Evelyn at this very same spot by the Lakeview. Having this wedding ceremony at this very same location was bittersweet and had strong sentimental value for both of them. Click the link to read more about their Central Park, NYC engagement and proposal. After the ceremony, we took advantage of Central Park’s picturesque scenery and we did their family formals and some lovely portraits of the two of them. The time flew by and we had to head back into Queens for their reception at Rainhas Churrascaria. My only regret was that I wish we had more time to take advantage of Central Park’s beautiful scenery but from experience I can tell you that there is just never enough time to take pictures on a wedding day. That is why it is so important to always plan enough time to take your wedding pictures. After all, your wedding pictures are all that you have left long after the day is over.

I love photographing small NYC intimate weddings. If you would like more information on booking photography services for your NYC intimate wedding or engagement, get in touch with me here.

Central Park Maternity Photos – NYC Maternity Photographer

Central Park Maternity Photos – NYC Maternity Photographer

It was a beautiful June day in NYC for Vanessa’s Central Park Maternity photos session. Vanessa contacted me weeks ago about having her maternity photos taken in NYC once she knew that she and her husband would be visiting the Big Apple. She chose Central Park for her maternity session because of it’s diversity and I couldn’t agree more with her choice. Central Park truly does offer so much diversity and it is so picturesque. From buildings, to trees, to bridges, the lake, the rocks and the beautiful architecture at Bethesda Terrace there really is something for everyone. It is a beautiful park to visit during any season. We started her maternity photos by one of my favorite spots near the lake and then walked over to the Terrace by the stairs, the mall and underneath the Terrace taking advantage of the beautiful light in the tunnel.

Below are some of my favorite photos from the session. Congratulations again to Vanessa and Gerry on your new bundle of joy!

NYC Senior Photos:Photo Session in Central Park

NYC Senior Photos:Photo Session in Central Park

NYC Senior photos allow seniors to capture a memorable moment of time in their lives through fun and creative pictures. A senior photo shoot in NYC is quite different from the graduation photos that are taken at school. Having a senior photos taken in NYC can be quite an amazing experience. NYC has so many landmarks and backdrops that offer many opportunities to create some creative and unique photos. NYC has tons of streets and buildings that make for great urban backgrounds, and it also has Central Park, which is one of the biggest and most beautiful parks of the city that is right in the middle of Manhattan. The opportunities in Central Park alone for photos are endless!

These are some photos I took of Aaliyah last fall. We did her senior photo shoot in Central Park. We got to capture some really creative photos of her around Bethesda Fountain, a very popular spot in the park for photos.

Having your Senior photos taken is a very important milestone in your life. If you are a teen or senior graduating in the NYC area, or are traveling to the NYC area soon, and would like to have a unique, fun and amazing experience while getting some really cool senior photos that are different from what your friends back home are getting, please contact me to discuss the possibilities that we can create for your Senior photoshoot.

Central Park Engagement Photos

Central Park Engagement Photos

What’s not to love about these Central Park engagement photos? A great choice of location in NYC to have your engagement photos taken? A beautiful, sweet couple? Oh wait I know (drumroll) ……. the adorable puppy!!!!! How can you not resist this handsome furry guy all dressed up for the occasion in a tux? He even had on a red bow tie. He was just way too adorable. I was so thrilled when Michelle & Mike told me that they were going to bring their dog, Cavalli to be part of their engagement shoot. Being the animal lover that I am, I always get excited when clients want to include their pets in their pictures. Pets are like family and are special to us so why not include them in your engagement shoot? Not only that but sometimes logistics don’t work out on your wedding day where you will be able to include your dog in the photos or, better yet finding a caretaker to take care of your pooch on the wedding day can be more stressful than it’s worth. Having your furry friend involved in the pics prior to the wedding date is a great alternative.

Here are some of my favorites from the photo session. These were all taken in Central Park, NYC. It was great capturing Michelle and Mike’s love and I look forward to shooting their wedding in Long Island, NY this month.
