Spring Central Park with Allison and Tom

Navigating Central Park during peak cherry blossom season required careful planning to find intimate moments amidst the crowds. By starting at dawn, we captured Allison and Tom in magical morning light with the pink blossoms at their peak. The session flowed from formal portraits to candid moments as they explored lesser-known paths.

Technical highlights included using blossom branches as natural frames, and experimenting with slow shutter speeds to create impressionistic backgrounds while keeping the couple sharp. The standout image shows their reflection in the Bow Bridge pond, surrounded by floating petals - achieved by lying prone on the bank with a wide-angle lens.
