Mature Dating Profile Portraits on the Upper East Side (Manhattan, NYC)

One of the fastest growing genres in portrait photography is focused on profile images for dating apps and websites, and they are perfect for people of all ages! I love helping people look and feel their best during these special kinds of sessions, one which I think tend to showcase more of your individual personality than other types of portrait shoots. For this shoot with lovely Nancy, we started out by having high-tea at Laduree on the Upper East Side, and then explored the surrounding area together on the look-out for picturesque backdrops in different cafés and parks, of which we found several!

Here are some of my favorite images from this session (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 lens, and individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using my own custom presets.
