Jennifer and Mike – NYC session

November 17, 2009 by Peter 

I recently had the opportunity to do a New York City engagement session for one of our 2010 brides, Jennifer and her fiancé, Mike. We had to reschedule because of the rain the first time around but we we fortunate enough to have a beautiful day for our second try so we just kind of headed off around the city to see what we could find, and of course to hit some special places! We headed out to the Staten Island Ferry, still the best value in NYC, and enjoyed a great view of the city and Lady Liberty. And in one of those weekday only kind of lucky breaks we were able to catch the same ferry back, no Staten Island layover for the ferry tour!

Our next stop was going to be the Brooklyn Bridge but as luck would have it our path took us past the wonderful Table Tales Café owned by one of Mike’s relatives, Steve. So we poked our heads in to say hi  and the next thing you know we were treated to one heck of a meal! Talk about a bonus for me, thanks Steve! After filling up on some fantastic pasta and Sunday gravy we strolled, albeit much more slowly, on up to the bridge. We enjoyed the bridge for a bit and then it was off to One if by Land, Two if by Sea. This little restaurant on Barrow St. has been called one of NYC’s most romantic restaurants and it just happens to be where Mike popped the question to Jennifer so there was no way we could not stop by there and take a quick shot! They weren’t quite open but it’s amazing what a smile from a beautiful girl can do and they let up pop in and take a quick shot at the table where it all went down. A big “thanks!” to the folks there for indulging us and helping to make the day complete!

Here’s a few shots from the day! Enjoy and as always, comments are welcome!

Below is a quick little video of shots from the day. Thanks again you guys!
