+ Cassandra & Brett: Retracing steps in the Village

 

I had the pleasure of creating engagement photos for a beautiful couple on a recent May morning. Cassandra and Brett met in 2011 at a bar in the West Village called Blind Tiger. The rest was history as the two quickly grew fond of each other, and it wasn't long before they were officially dating. Brett proposed just last September, and wedding plans are in the air! Cassandra and Brett were both students at NYU's business school, and the surrounding West Village neighborhood served not only as familiar home and schools grounds, but also as the backdrop to their love story. For their engagement shoot, they wanted to revisit all the little spots where they share many memories and moments together. We started on their street, and strolled around town, passing by Little Owl, the subway station they frequent, Minetta Street, Washington Square Park, and last but not least - Blind Tiger, where it all started! We photographed in some of the most charming areas NYC has to offer, but Cassandra and Brett certainly gave the scenery the romantic touch, and made for some gorgeous photographs. Here are some of my favorites from our lovely day together...
