New York, New York | One of my favorite places in the city to shoot is on the Brooklyn Bridge — however, it is also one of the craziest (and at times, scariest!) places to be at any time other than sunrise. There are so many people on bikes and tourists taking photos that shooting…

Luxurious City Wedding at the Lotte New York Palace
New York, New York | Hannah and Doug had the most exquisite celebration to make their marriage official.

Fall Central Park Engagement
New York, New York | I absolutely love when couples are down for a sunrise session, so when Colleen and Dylan agreed to an early morning in Central Park I couldn’t have been more excited! Is it an early wakeup call? Totally. But does it also give you basically private access to some of the…
West Village NYC Engagement
New York, New York | It was so much fun working with Christina and Tim again, this time in the West Village — and I say “this time” because the last time I saw them both, I was shooting their proposal in a snow-covered Central Park! While very different conditions, both sessions were so incredibly…
Stylish City Elopement at The Beekman Hotel
New York, New York | I am truly at a loss for words when it comes to this elopement. I knew it was going to be absolutely stunning, between this sweet, gorgeous couple and this epic venue but… I was not prepared for just how incredible it would be. Niki and Joe have been together…
Central Park Belvedere Castle Engagement
New York, New York | I’m so grateful to Hannah and Doug for helping me to explore Central Park outside of my usual shooting areas! Pretty much every time I shoot an engagement session in Central Park, I stick to the Bow Bridge and Bethesda Terrace areas. When Hannah and I first started chatting about…
Rainy Central Park Engagement
New York, New York | I often have clients ask me, “Jill, what happens if it rains on the day of our engagement session?” And I usually say, “We will be checking the forecast in the days leading up, and if it looks iffy we will reschedule!” Well, when the forecast is back and forth…
Spring Brooklyn Bridge Park Engagement
New York, New York Working with Maddie and Devin was so special! I met these two in college (where they also met six and a half years ago!) and there is nothing I love more than a Bryan University love story. When Maddie reached out about shooting their engagement photos in NYC, I couldn’t have…
Autumn Central Park NYC Engagement
New York, New York Shooting Bari and Joey’s engagement session was absolutely amazing! Not only did we get potentially THE most beautiful fall day in Central Park, but actually I went to high school with both of them so getting to be a part of this exciting time in their lives was all the more…
Brooklyn Bridge Park DUMBO Engagement
Brooklyn, New York Hannah and Tommy were an absolute blast to work with! We met up by the West Elm in Brooklyn Bridge Park (aka one of my favorite places ever) and Pebble Beach, and instantly it felt like we’d known each other forever. Which, in a way, we sort of did know each other…
Summer Brooklyn Bridge Park Proposal
Brooklyn, New York When Zac first reached out to me about planning his proposal to Natalie at Brooklyn Bridge Park, I was GAME. The view of the Manhattan skyline from the park is one of my favorite spots in the city, and I couldn’t imagine a more magical place to ask the love of your…
Sunrise Brooklyn Bridge Engagement
Brooklyn, New York I have wanted to do an engagement session on the Brooklyn Bridge for so long, so Morgan and David made my dreams come true! They were total troupers, agreeing to my suggestion of a VERY early start at 7:00am to avoid tourists/bikers and get that good light. It was absolutely worthwhile! Morgan…
