New York City Couples Photography: An Elopement & Engagement

This trip to NYC was truly a dream come true! Not only did I get to spend some time exploring this incredible city, but I also got to shoot two unforgettable New York City couples photography sessions. Between Kiley and Max’s elopement day and Gabrielle and Sean’s engagement photoshoot, I couldn’t have asked for a better NYC experience!

Kiley + Max’s New York City Elopement Day Photoshoot

First, I met up with Kiley and Max for their New York City elopement photos. This stunning bride reminds me so much of Charlotte York from Sex and the City. She truly embodies the character in all the best ways! Kiley works in an NYC art gallery, lives next to Central Park, and has such an elegant, timeless style.

The vision for this elopement photoshoot was “a day in the city”. We started at the New York Public Library. I loved capturing Kiley’s chic bridal look in front of the iconic architecture. While there, I did my best to capture every smile, loving look, and tender touch. As you can see, these two share such a sweet love.

After that, we took to the streets of NYC, hitting some of the city’s most memorable landmarks. From Grand Central Station to the steps of the Met to Central Park, I followed along and documented Max and Kiley’s NYC adventure. Of course, there were snacks along the way. These two shared a pretzel in the park; then, we finished the day with some delicious New York pizza. All in all, it was a truly perfect NYC elopement day filled with love and big-city magic!

Gabrielle + Sean’s New York City Couples Photography Engagement Session

A couple of days later, it was Gabrielle and Sean’s turn to spend the day in front of my camera. These two first booked me for their Italian wedding at Villa Corsini next year. So, I was excited to meet them in New York for their engagement photography session. I knew it would be the perfect chance to get to know them before their big day.

This intimate, romantic New York City couples photography shoot was another dream come true for me. Sean and Gabrielle’s love is so apparent that you know you’re witnessing true love just by the looks in their eyes. We spent the day in Central Park, starting out at the Bethesda Fountain and Terrace before heading to the Central Park Boathouse and finally heading out on the lake for a romantic boat ride. All in all, I loved capturing these two as they celebrated their engagement. It felt like I spent the day in the middle of a romantic movie!

I could not have asked for a more magical trip to this iconic city. Between exploring the city and capturing two incredible couples in love, I have definitely checked some things off my bucket list! Now, I cannot wait for my next chance to visit New York. If these galleries have you dreaming about our own New York City couples photography session, please connect with me here to inquire! Let’s start planning an NYC adventure to remember!
