35th Birthday/Friends Photoshoot on the Brooklyn Bridge at Night
This surprise 35th birthday shoot on the Brooklyn Bridge was nothing short of unforgettable! The trio of friends brought their celebratory energy (and a bottle of champagne!) to the iconic landmark, ready to toast under the city lights. While they lost the “5” balloon before I arrived, the remaining “3” added a quirky charm to the session. Shooting on the bridge after dark isn’t my usual recommendation, but the dramatic lighting and gothic vibe turned out to be a perfect match for their bold celebration. The result? Striking, moody photos that captured their friendship and the magic of NYC at night.
If you’re planning a unique celebration or want to commemorate a special moment, let’s create something extraordinary together.
