Couples Travel/Engagement Shoot on Brooklyn Bridge

Love knows no boundaries, and for this couple, it transcends oceans. Traveling all the way from France, they made their way to the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, where they planned to capture their love with a surprise proposal. However, fate had different plans, and the proposal was unintentionally revealed several hours beforehand as the fiance-to-be found out about his plans before we got the chance to have our photoshoot! But that didn't stop them from embracing the moment and enjoying a beautiful engagement session together instead,

Walking along the bridge and through the surrounding park, we captured stunning shots of the couple in their element. From laughter to quiet moments of love and connection, their chemistry shone through the lens. As a photographer, it's always a joy to witness and capture two people in love, and this couple was no exception.

Despite the unexpected turn of events, the shoot was a success, and we ended up with beautiful, romantic photos that captured the essence of the couple's love story. From the Brooklyn Bridge to the streets of New York City, this couple's love for each other knows no bounds, and it was a privilege to be a part of their journey.
