Yesterday Greg and I had the pleasure of shooting a family we worked with last year. Nairobi and her son Jake had us shoot their family christmas card portrait along with her two siblings. This time, Nairobi had great news, she is engaged to her long time boyfriend Franklin! She wanted to have a Carrie Bradshaw feel to the shoot and boy did she succeed. I mean, have you seen a more fabulous outfit? We started off on a cute little park on 174th street in Washington Heights with an awesome view of the George Washington Bridge. We also started with a mock ring because Nairobi was still waiting for the real thing. After a quick little session in that park, we trucked our way down to Fort Washington Park under the bridge. Here, while we were shooting the couple in front of the river, Franklin surprised us all by getting down on one knee and presenting Nairobi with a stunning diamond engagement ring. It made our day. It was the most romantic moment Greg and I had ever had the pleasure of capturing. Congratulations to such a fun and great couple and a beautiful family.
