A West Village Date Night / New York City Photographer

Sarah & River found me on TikTok and inquired to book a couples shoot during their trip to NYC! They were visiting from Toronto and wanted new couples photos in their favorite city before their upcoming wedding this summer. I absolutely love working with couples visiting New York - I’m always happy to share ideas for photoshoot locations, and of course recs for what they should do & see on their trip!

Sarah mentioned that their engagement photos were taken on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade and she loves the brownstone vibe in BK, but she also loves the East Village - so I recommended we try out the quieter streets of the West Village for a date night at a cocktail bar. S & R loved the idea - they felt it would be a perfect representation of their relationship, so we booked the date! I scouted out a few cute bars in the West Village ahead of the day, and lucky for us one of the bars was empty when we got there, so we had plenty of spots to take photos! We wandered around the West Village a bit and decided to check out Washington Square Park as well. We had a blast running around the village and finding so many cute photo spots together. It’s so fun to capture a couples session as if it’s a date - this makes it a full experience for my couples & allows them to feel a bit more comfortable while documenting an activity they love to do together.

Below are just a few of my favorites!
