NYC Engagement Photos • Upper East Side, Carl Schurz Park • Emily + Matthew

SHARE THIS STORY

NYC’s Upper East Side has never sparkled so beautifully! Between Matthew’s amazing heirloom engagement ring to his bride-to-be and Emily’s breathtaking blue eyes I would say there was no way their engagement session was going to be anything but incredible.

Emily is one of the cutest brides ever and I love working with her. The night before we met up she was emailing me pictures of outfits possibilities. She hoped she wasn’t interrupting my Friday night. Haha! I laugh because here’s my favorite thing to do on a Friday night: drink wine, edit photos, and watch (or mostly listen to) Dateline! I was so happy to hear from her and help her choose their outfits. Isn’t the result phenomenal? Their blues are complimentary but not too matchy-matchy, and I love how she spiced up her outfit with a little leopard belt. Rawr!
