This is the very first Gantry Park Landing Engagement Session I’ve ever done (in Long Island City), and despite the immense traffic getting there, I LOVED it because not only was there a super awesome park to shoot in, and a fantastic pier bier garten, but the sun also set behind the city just where I like it!! Not to mention, I had so much fun with Caitlin and Tony!
I met up with Caitlin and Tony down in Gantry Park Landing where they used to stroll along the piers and boardwalks enjoying the city views. They both looked stunning, and we started our session strolling along the walkways through the greenery. Never have I ever shot in a city-type environment with that little crowds. It was seriously amazing and we had the best sunset and best views!!
We started down by 49th street which gave us some great views of the Empire State Building. As we worked our way up the pathways, we went onto another pier with views of the Chrysler building, and then went even further for some views of the Freedom tower! We got just about all the iconic skyscrapers in one session!
I had so much fun getting to know these two, Caitlin is a lawyer and Tony is finishing up law school and they’re actually getting married in Italy next year! Both of their families live just north of Naples, so they’re having the celebration there! (So jealous!)
Caitlin said her and Tony used to come down to the piers all the time to enjoy the views, so I’m thrilled we got such beautiful weather to enjoy this place that holds a special place in their lives. I loved meeting these two and documenting a little piece of their love story! Enjoy some of my favorites from their Gantry Park Landing Engagement Session!!
