Best Friends Travel Shoot for 28th Birthday Trip, Hell's Kitchen (Manhattan)
Recently I had the opportunity to photograph a dazzling group of four female friends who were in the city for a special occasion. Becca, one of the friends, had organized this surprise photoshoot for her friend's 28th birthday. They were in New York City for a girls' trip to celebrate, and the birthday girl had no idea what was in store until I arrived!
The shoot took place in the lively areas surrounding La Grande Boucherie, one hour before their dinner reservations for their last night in town. It was so much fun capturing the excitement and style of the group before their big night out. Each friend brought their unique fashion sense to the shoot, and we had a great time documenting their camaraderie and the fun they were having.
Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D850 using a 24-85mm zoom lens, and all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
