My ‘prom season’ photoshoots concluded with a street-style session for this stylish teenage couple in Queens. The young lady’s mother booked me to capture this exciting occasion for them as a celebratory gift. We shot this outside of their home, where the outdoor decorations matched their outfits. With a bold purple and black color scheme, they were ready to turn heads. While friends and family cheered them on, we transformed the street into our own runway, snapping dynamic moments that highlighted their unique vibe.

Sure, you’ll get some of those run-of-the-mill photos taken at the prom itself, but the best way to really capture this special milestone in a young person’s life is with a professional pre-prom photoshoot!

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