Engagement Shoot Inspiration: Central Park

My heart skips a beat every time I come across a Central Park Engagement Shoot. Central Park is a backyard to many New Yorkers, myself included. I have spent countless hours walking through the Rambles and sunning on the Great Lawn. There is nothing as beautiful in the whole of NYC, as Central Park. At least in my humble opinion. 

That is why today, I am showcasing a few Central Park Engagement Shoots. These photos are just beautiful, and while the Park does take some credit, these photographers are truly amazing. I have sourced each photog below the pictures, so please check them out yourself for more beautiful images!

What I love the most about Central Park, is the variety. In some spots you have a clear view of the Midtown skyline, in others the forest is so dense you feel miles away from the hustle and bustle. These two pictures both feature two of the Park's 36 bridges (yep - 36!). As you can see, the first, more secluded bridge captures the rustic, romantic atmosphere, while the other  puts the skyscrapers on display and brings the NYC energy into the image.

 This photo shoot, from Courtney Davidson, is just beautiful. I love the cherry blossoms and the bride's blue dress. I think it works perfectly in the outdoor setting.

I love that this shoot, from Pennace Photography, goes for a casual glam look. The couple is dressed up, but not overly so. They look like they are on their way to a nice dinner at the Boathouse!

 Another great look for a Central Park Shoot, is to embrace the seasons. In this fall shoot, from Sarah Wright Photography, the couple matches the autumn season perfectly. I love the bride's orange scarf!

 Last, but certainly not least, I adore the light in these pictures. Robert and Kathleen Photographers did an amazing job of incorporating the natural light from Central Park to really make these images shine.

Has anyone else out there seen a truly show-stopping Central Park E-Pic shoot? I'm obsessed with all these images, and can't wait to hopefully take my own Engagement Pics here too!
