TAYLOR + JACOB | CENTRAL PARK SECRET PROPOSAL | NEW YORK CITY ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

Sophomore year college at a halloween party is where they first met. She was dressed up like Taylor swift and he was in his PJs dressed up like a bum. This meeting was the beginning of their friendship and a relationship that has blossomed beautifully over the years.

It was emotional for them to talk about each other. Tears rolled down her cheeks as Taylor mentioned how beautiful and special he makes her feel. Jacob's face lit up as he talked about how taylor has managed to not just fill his life with utmost love and happiness, but has won the heart of everyone around him with her sweet and kind nature. 

Last Thursday, Jacob and Taylor travelled from Texas to her favorite New York City. It was in the Bow bridge that Taylor cried the tears of happiness as Jacob got down in his knees proposing her to marry him. 

Taylor and Jacob: I am so happy for you two. Thank you for sharing your beautiful afternoon with me. 

TATIANA + DAVID | CENTRAL PARK WEDDING PROPOSAL | NEW YORK CITY ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

These two incredible souls met a year ago at a company event in Houston, Texas where David was completely blown away by Tatiana. They spent that entire day talking to each other rather than concentrating on the actual event.

After that day, David was in a mission to convince Tatiana to go out on a date with him; he finally succeeded a week after. Their first date was at an Italian pizzeria, it was a very casual one filled with Q&As. But, It took only one date for Tatiana to realize how charming, gentle and romantic David was. They have been together ever since.

David reached out to me last month to help document his long-planned wedding proposal to Tatiana in Central Park, New York City. 

I wish we had some sun and I wish Central Park wasn’t as crowded, but all in all it was a wonderful day and a very special moment when David got down on his knees and Tatiana immediately said "YES". It's people like them and their genuine love for each other that makes my heart melt.

I wish them a lifetime of happiness! 

JANELLE + CHANDA | CENTRAL PARK SECRET PROPOSAL | NEW YORK ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

'Chanda', a South Carolina born Navy Officer and 'Janelle', a New York City born dancer met each other for the first time at Boom Burger in Fair Lawn, New Jersey. They both say, their relationship has been inseparable ever since. They have shared the most gorgeous and forever lasting love for last two years. And they look forward to spending rest of their lives together as they plan their destination wedding in Aruba next spring. 

When I met Chanda last month to check out the venue for the secret proposal and as we talked about their relationship, I was beyond speechless to see the passion she shared for her girl friend. And, It would be an understatement if I say Janelle adores her.

Last Saturday when Chanda got down on her knees with a beautiful diamond ring, Janelle couldn't hold back her tears as she said 'Yes' out loud. 

I wish them immense love and happiness in life. :)

ASHLEY + COLLIN | CENTRAL PARK SECRET PROPOSAL | NEW YORK ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

When Ashley (a Florida born geologist) moved to Texas for work and came across Collin (a texan fire fighter), Collin immediately asked her out on a date and in no time was very much drawn by her addictive smile and big heart. 

Collin is such a romantic. When he contacted me 3 months ago to shoot his secret proposal in Central park, he had the most beautiful ideas. Last month, he flew from Texas with his father and brother to check out the perfect venue for the proposal. Every word he spoke about her made me realize how much he loves her and how ready he is to spend the rest of his life with her. 

With a diamond ring tucked in his pant's pocket, Collin couldn't resist the tears from rolling down his cheeks as he held Ashley's hand and got down on his knees. When Ashely immediately said yes, it meant the world to him. 

Its always an honor to document love. But, its even more memorable when you get to witness the moment when two lives decide to start a new life together. :)
