Así como Marta dice “Si en esta vida, Si en la eternidad”. Y ese fue el SI más bonito que eh visto hasta el momento, ellos ya se casaron y tienen un bebe en camino, su gran celebración de boda es al año que viene, y ya con todo esto tan bello, Arturo quiso hacerlo aún más bello y sentimental, entonces le dió la proposición matrimonial 💍 que Marta se merecía, así de sorpresa, y en unos de los lugares más bonitos en Nueva York. Pero que bonito amor!!! Muchas felicidades! ❤️

“When two hearts unite as one, nothing in this world can break the bond that holds them together”

Omg, it was an epic proposal planned by Hector, and by epic I mean his partner didn’t really have a clue about this surprise! They had dinner plans in Dumbo Brooklyn for their third year anniversary, and a walk around the boardwalk near Jane’s Carrousel to take some photos, and selfies with the amazing NYC skyline views during sunset before heading to the restaurant. Little did Carlos know that this was a plan to lead to his proposal!
People around the area who witnessed this romantic moment were cheering and clapping for this lovely couple. Carlos and Hector made a few FaceTime calls to share their happiness before we headed to a small engagement session afterwards, with the blue hour under Manhattan bridge after sunset and nightlights of the NYC. What a day! 😍

No wonder why Freddy Mercury, the singer of the rock band Queen, settled in this city, the serenity of Montreux in Switzerland was unbelievable. Surrounded by a clear water lake where boats and wildlife roam free. The towering Swiss Alps in the distance coated with what only could be described as powdered sugar. The promenades filled with stunning, vibrant, and fragrant flowers. The scent of those purple Wisterias will always remind me of our stay in this beautiful city.
As a wedding photographer and my love for trips, I would be more than happy to be a 😍 and cover

Rollercoaster of emotions in a wedding day.
The vows are one of my favorite parts of a wedding day, bride and groom get to express to each other the reason why they are standing right there getting married to one another. Most often than not it makes me tear up as well… I am a cryer photographer lol What’s your favorite part in a wedding day?
Venue: a beautiful venue in Long Island that makes you feel like you are in a tropical location🌴
Thank you for bringing me with you to this amazing wedding, and venue location.

In*******al weddings are a beautiful blend of cultures coming together to create one family. Joanna and Chamith’s wedding was no exception, with vibrant colors and traditions that blended seamlessly. Their connection was palpable, and their love story is a testament to the fact that love knows no boundaries. As their wedding photographer, I was honored to capture their special day and create memories that they will cherish forever. ❤️📸

I meow back to cats once in a while… maybe often, or perhaps always 😄
On the other hand… Hello, I’m Clara. I am a wedding photographer in New York City. I document the special moments in a couple’s life. From surprise proposals to pre wedding sessions to the wedding day!

Picture 1: It’s just me, one of my favorite images captured by

Picture 2: Edwin proposing to Mindy. He told her that they were going to a white dress code party. Little did she know that her family and friends were waiting for both of them for her surprise proposal!

Picture 3: Eleanor and Josh on their wedding day. What a beautiful day filled with emotions and tears of joy ❤️.

Picture 4: Preeti and Manny in their pre wedding session. They met in a wedding party, but she blocked him on Instagram when he tried to slide into her DMs lol. Manny was persistent though, and his persistence paid off when one day they finally spoke, and the rest is history.

Picture 5: Tamrin and Tyler’s wedding day in the beautiful season of Fall. This couple met through Instagram, she followed his artwork and they began talking ever since. Btw check out his beautiful artwork

💍📸 Are you ready to strike a pose with your partner in crime?
As a wedding photographer, I have seen all kinds of couples, from the shy, introverted ones to the outgoing, adventurous ones. But one thing is for sure, your engagement session should be fun, and the photos should be a reflection of who you are as a couple! 😍

In this particular session, proposed with a romantic setup under Bethesda Terrace in Central Park, and said yes! and they were a ball of laughs during their engagement session 😂📸 they were having a blast and it definitely shows in their photos.

Don't be afraid to be silly, to laugh out loud, to make faces, or to show some PDA! After all, it's your moment, and you deserve to enjoy it to the fullest! 😜

Remember, the best photos are the ones that tell a story, the ones that capture the essence of your relationship, and the ones that make your heart skip a beat! So, let's make your engagement session an unforgettable experience! 🥳

Timeless images of your special day!

Do I like walking up early? Hmm, not really, but do I love the pictures I can capture in the early morning? ABSOLUTELY! I spent a morning in Central Park with this lovely couple for their maternity session, at sunrise! One of the only ways to experience this beautiful landscape unoccupied, although we were not the only ones who got there bright and early haha.

Also, I have been trying to push myself to get photos from angles that are not as common in Central Park. I feel like it’s such a popular landmark that everything in terms of photos and angles have already done by someone else, but some of my images in this post are angles that I personally haven’t done before, so that’s a good start. Let’s see what I can try next!

On the other hand, this is my first post with 10 pictures! I always thought it was too much to post so many pictures at once 😄, however this couple was so fun to work with that I captured so many pictures that now the option of posting ten pictures seems like not enough Lol.

Any favorite?

Film Noir style! Can you guess how many lights are involved in this setup?

I had so much fun creating this setup with who helped me with the lighting vision, also the participation of talented models and also, this wouldn’t have been possible without the group of with as organizer, and to put the look together with important props.
