C + W // Washington Square Park, NYC Engagement Session

JULY, 2021 | Washington Square Park, NYC


C + W met at New York University (NYU), right in the thick of the city. Washington Square Park is gorgeous, and the arch, which was created in 1891 (!), is iconic.

The lighting and lack of people are a strong reason I frequently recommend morning for engagements in New York City. The way the light bounces off the buildings, the lack of crowds, the (usually) cool weather, really allow you to have the city to yourself - Jess and I talked about how the pictures of them crossing the street really looked and felt like a movie set - unbelievable!

This shoot started in Washington Square Park, capturing the arch and the fountain, then we walked the streets of NYU and finished up at some beautiful, Italian-style housing that the university provides.

These guys have some amazing wedding plans, hoping everything comes together for them!
