Would you believe these two have never taken professional photos together?

Danielle & Steven's Engagement Photos at Bethesda Terrace

If you're dreaming of romantic and timeless engagement photos in New York City, Bethesda Terrace in Central Park is a picture-perfect spot—and Danielle and Steven’s session was the sweetest reminder why.

A little over a year before their big day, Danielle and Steven joined me at an early session for their first-ever professional photos, and the magic was undeniable. We danced through the iconic Bethesda Terrace, twirled around the beautiful arches, and strolled hand-in-hand by the Bethesda Fountain—even sneaking in a few dips along the way. Their chemistry was effortless, and their laughter filled the morning air.

These two are planning their wedding in their home state while being away for Steven's residency, but wanted to capture their love story in a place a pitcure-esque location. And let me tell you, photographing them was pure joy.

Every single frame was golden (yes, I struggled to choose favorites because every shot felt like the one).

Thinking about taking engagement photos at Central Park?

Bethesda Terrace is truly one of the most scenic and romantic engagement photo locations in NYC. I recommend scheduling your session early in the morning to avoid the crowds and catch the soft, golden light.
