When Michael reached out to us about having his proposal to Minjee photographed, he already had Central Park in mind. As one of our popular locations for proposals, we couldn’t agree more with his decision! He and his now fiancee Minjee walked along Bow Bridge before they stopped at this spot to take what she thought would just be regular tourist-y selfies. When he finally got down on one knee to pop the question, we captured this gorgeous shot with the Manhattan skyline behind them on one side and the winter trees in Central Park on the other.

Afterward, with smiles on all of our faces, we took portraits of them as a newly engaged couple around the other beautiful locations within the park like the Bethesda Terrace and Fountain.

We photographed Ragnar and Jona’s simple and sweet summer proposal in Central Park. They’re both Icelandic police officers, and a little fun fact we learned is that in their culture, both man and woman get a ring during the proposal!

Their lovely proposal was organized by the awesome The Heart Bandits team.

When it comes to proposal shoots, the moment we’re always most excited to capture is her reaction to the question. Jordan’s reaction to Chris down on his knee while the guitarist provides the background music is GOLD.

Congratulations you two!
