Neeya + Vishal | Central Park Engagement Session


New York City is chaotic, but if you hit Central Park at sunrise, it is a different world. That was the game plan for Neeya and Vishal’s engagement session. We wanted those iconic NYC locations without the thousands of tourists that usually swarm them. We started right at Bethesda Terrace. The light in the morning hits the stone arcade perfectly and gives everything a warm glow. Neeya and Vishal showed up dressed to impress. Their outfits looked incredible against the architecture of the terrace and the tree-lined walkway of The Mall. It gave the photos a high-end editorial vibe that fits the city perfectly. From there, we walked over to Bow Bridge. It is probably the most famous spot in the park for a reason. The view of the water with the skyline in the back is unbeatable. We spent some time just capturing the connection between them. It was one of those mornings where everything from the light to the styling just clicked.
