Heck yeah, it’s getting all New York up in here.  Joanna and Michael were my day #2 engagement session in New York awesomeness (day one, of course, was Anastasia & Nick).  These two rocked out Prospect Park in Brooklyn and the beautiful Promenade where I got  to dork out with Manhattan views.  I’m sure all the New York photographers think it’s lame or played-out to shoot there – I don’t care!  I was lovin’ the sweet views.

Michael’s a small-town guy.  So when there was a dude with a bike hanging out right about where Joanna and Michael are now, he just went over and asked him to move.  Then later (for the photo at the top), I needed my light to be way higher, so we just asked this little old lady to hold the flash.  She dug it.  It was awesome.  Random New Yorker being my 30-second photo assistant.

That was all for NYC…. for now.  So much congratulations to Joanna and Michael!  I’ll see y’all soon!

Love that shot in the tunnel Amber – is it not normal to ask random strangers to do stuff for you in NYC? Guess I must be small town too – I grabbed a random passerby to hold my lights at a wedding recently too 🙂

Lovely set of pictures. Really like the tunnel opening shot with the large amount of negative space and the closing picture of them together in the taxi.

I’m not a New Yorker, so I enjoyed the views, too! They look very happy and relaxed, and I love the last shot. 🙂

Gorgeous! The black and white one in front of the straight-on skyline has to be my favorite though 🙂

There’s something innately romantic (and NYC!) about the last frame Amber. I’m swooning.

Great pics, I always envy photographers who take good pics, something I’ve never mastered but have always envied.
