I’m always excited to travel to destinations near & dear to my couples, like this Brooklyn Bridge Engagement Photoshoot in NYC!

The Brooklyn Bridge has to be one of the most iconic locations in NYC. The sweeping views of the city are second to none. The bridge was opened in 1883 and stood as the first fixed crossing of the East River. At the time of its construction, it was also the longest suspension bridge in the world. There’s never a shortage of historic locations in NYC for photoshoots but choosing one with a skyline of the city, and architecture all its own leaves the Brooklyn Bridge a highly coveted location for couples to flock to for their engagement and wedding photos!

The key to planning your Brooklyn Bridge engagement photos is catching the light early enough in the day. Scheduling your session for that coveted golden hour (at sunrise) ensures that you will have optimal light for your photos and that you will more than likely have the bridge all to yourselves. When the light is great and there’s plenty of room to take photos – you can spin, jump, kiss, and embrace freely without the worry of onlookers! This helps to put you at ease in front of the camera which creates photos that convey genuine love and emotion.
