18 more days • meatpacking and highline engagement photography

Highline_Engagement_Photography_8

I have known my sister-in-law since she was 16. Back when she wasn't my sister-in-law, but a girl who wanted to paint my toe nails and gossip about boys. I've been with her through drunken nights (hers, not mine), family dinners, and tragic deaths. She helped me through my own wedding planning, a kazillion years ago, acting as a bonafide therapist. And when I had my first daughter five years ago, she supported me through blocked milk ducts and thrush. I have seen her grow from a giggly teen into a thoughtful woman whom I treasure. So when she got engaged, I knew I'd want to offer her and her fiance an engagement session in New York City, where they lived. Something hip, cool, urban. And then they up and went to Salt Lake City for the year. Luckily, they've come home a few times, and I was able to wrangle them away for a night and have the best time capturing their love with the meatpacking district and highline as a backdrop. Although I primarily photograph children, I will say that this may have made me a convert! They took direction and stayed up late enough to take advantage of the amazing New York sunset. Now I just need to find some sleek silver shoes for the wedding...
