Michael Asks Lavina in Central Park | NYC Proposal Photographer

I think photographing proposals might be my new favorite thing.  You are capturing this special love-filled moment while also feeling like a photo ninja.  Michael and Lavina were visiting New York all the way from Ireland and I scouted the perfect proposal spot right by Gapstow Bridge.  This spot was abandoned for the 30 minutes I was awaiting their arrival and then BOOM someone decided to check out the view right when they arrived (see picture #2).   It’s not a true NYC experience unless someone is in your personal space, right?  A nice little reminder that life is full of surprises, and hey, the view a little to the right was pretty gorgeous as well.

Spring in Central Park is simply stunning, thanks for having me along for the adventure Michael and Lavina!

And off they went to explore the park as a newly engaged couple…

 

Los Angeles, I will be flying back to you this Friday!  I need to make a super bloom poppy session happen.

 

Lots of love!
