Fort Tyron Park Engagement Photos | David & Eliora

Remember Chiara & Creighton's ah - mazing Hudson River shoot last fall? Well, Eliora, her sister, also a bride-to-be, came out to Fort Tyron Park for spring engagement photos. I mean, what a pair! Photo - friendly muses are hard to come by and David and Eliora carried on as if I wasn't even there. THANK YOU!

This couple has a unique story, which, they explained, had everything to do with their chosen outfits. Childhood friends who turned the corner together into full fledged romance, Eliora and David remember dancing at David's Bar Mitzvah in nearly the same outfits they chose for their engagement shoot. Love like this is a rarity and it was a treat to shoot these two. Taking the plunge in May 2013, the lovebirds have plenty of time to plan their nuptials and enjoy the ride. Congrats to Eliora & David! 

Hudson River Engagement Photos | Creighton & Chiara

Don't they sound famous? Creighton & Chiara?! 


Chiara's sister, Eliora, surprised her by gifting Chiara an engagement session with me a couple weeks ago. I had been dying to shoot on the new and revamped park along the Hudson River & 72nd St. Fortunately Chiara and Creighton left choosing a locale up to yours truly. 


The happy couple, to be married on a Vermont farm next fall, traveled to the City all the way from Buffalo for Eliora's (Chiara's sister) surprise engagement the following day. I suppose it was all in the stars for it truly was a weekend of surprises! I feel very fortunate to have been a part of documenting this special time for Chiara and Creighton. Congrats you two!

Another fun feature yesterday over at Black Bridal Bliss, where I was featured back in April with the Harlem Renaissance Engagement Shoot. 


I can hardly believe that Maudelyne and Edenson's big day is just around the corner and I am thrilled to be shooting their wedding next week. Thanks again to Bridgette over BBB for the feature!
