Maureen & Joseph!

NY, NY! Central Park... I love going into the city. It's not a bad train ride from home, about an hour and 40 minutes. I guess I'm getting used to it with all the trips I've been taking to the city. I'll be back next weekend too!

I met up with Maureen and Joe at 5th and 59th, the corner of Central Park, or what I like to call the Apple Store. I really need to stay out of there. We took a nice long walk through central park on a perfect for photography day. I took a lot of photos and can't help but to post a lot of them here!

Joe use to work in the building behind the Apple store (I'm jealous). He asked Maureen to marry him in the park across from there, in front of the Plaza Hotel.




I tried to keep the Apple logo out of the shots... something keept drawing me to it.


















I was editing the images on the train ride home. The women sitting next to me really liked this one.




































I had to ask Maureen if she modeled before cause she would naturally give me these looks and poses that were fantastic.


Then an onlooker tried to do the same? Not as effective.










After the shoot I enjoyed a city vendor pretzel and headed to Grand Central. Sunday nights are always crowded going back to New Haven. I got there a little early and managed a good seat next to a window. Then an announcement came over the speaker that the train was broken and we had to get on another train. It was a mad dash! The next train didn't have as many cars, so seats were even more limited and I ended up on an isle. It was crazy.

  1. These are so beautiful! Love those ring shots, and that one of the lady trying to bust that pose pretty much cracked me up! Oh and that’s awesome that you were able to be stuck working on that train! I feel like I never have time for that stuff, but a train ride seems like the perfect time/place for it! :)
