Beth and Paco's New York City Engagement Session | Brooklyn Engagement Photos | Destination Photographer

There aren't many better locations to do a photo shoot at Christmas time than New York City! I was thrilled to get the opportunity to do engagement photos for Beth and Paco in Brooklyn, where Paco grew up. It was definitely one of the most exciting and fun photo shoots I've ever done! Being in the city at Christmas with all the crowds, and bicyclist shouting to make sure we knew to stay out of their way just added to the adventure! There's no time for 'posing' or anything of that nature in the busy Brooklyn locations we chose, but I prefer it that way! It was fun to spend time walking around the city and getting to know this lovely couple. They are so sweet, and a really stunning couple! I loved their classy outfits too, they did a fabulous job!
My husband, Darren, tagged along to help carry my gear so I could focus on shooting, and I'm so thankful for him doing that for me!

We started out on the Brooklyn Bridge, then moved on to the Brooklyn Promenade, and finished up under the Brooklyn Bridge in the River Cafe area. Thank you to Paco's sweet mother who chauffeured us around and saved us quite a bit of time, and provided a warm car to thaw out in between locations!
Beth and Paco were amazing to work with, they were totally willing to spend a couple of hours outside in the freezing cold, and I'm so glad because we got a lot of wonderful shots!

I'm really looking forward to shooting their wedding in Corolla, NC next Fall! Congratulations again, Beth and Paco! Thank you for a great time!
