While I was in New York for Lisa & Doug’s engagement session, I also photographed a session for Selene & Josh. I met Selene on a shoot last year- she was the videographer. We clicked right away, became Facebook buddies and I soon found out that she shares my appreciation for unique imagery. She got engaged earlier this year and I was honored to hear from her that she wanted me to photograph a session for them! You see, Selene is a super talented videographer/cinematographer and I knew she had a particular vision, so it was such an honor that she thought I could help bring that to life.
I became even more excited about the session when she sent me her mood board and explained that she wanted to do the session at Coney Island with a professional juggler and firebreather! Seriously? So cool. Here are my favorite images from the session.
We started the session with just Selene & Josh hanging out on the pretty desolate Coney Island boardwalk.
I went to New York City a few weeks ago to photograph Lisa & Doug’s engagement session and had the best time with them! New York has always been such a magical city to me- the energy and the movement of the city is just so different from that of here in LA and I love it. Not to mention, Fall is an amazing time to go- the leaves in the park, the brisk weather, the people walking around in their scarves and jackets. This session totally feels like Fall and I just love it! And don’t let Lisa’s outfit fool you- it was really cold and she was a champ!
We started the session at the Seaport because Lisa loved the feeling of the exposed brick and cobblestone streets that can be found there. I loved it, too!
Then it was off to Central Park for a change of scenery.
One favorite.And another big time favorite.
My then fiance (and now husband!) came with me on the shoot and caught some great shots of Lisa & Doug as well as of me working behind-the-scenes.
Thanks so much for a fun afternoon in the city, Lisa & Doug! I’m so looking forward to your wedding! xo
I adore Katie and Mark. They both work for Disney- she’s helps to design and dress interiors for the parks and he is a landscape architect. They are creative, fun, stylish and some of the nicest people. I was so happy when they asked me to photograph their wedding (coming up in January!) and just as delighted to hear they wanted to do their engagement session in comic book store! I’m always eager to shoot in new locations and environments, and knew this would be a fun shoot.
Here are some of my favorite images from our shoot together.
Katie- you’re so cute! And pretty ravishing in red.
Then we headed over to an architectural/design book store in Santa Monica.
So looking forward to the wedding day and the fun we’ll have!
