Central Park engagement ~ KT Merry

Aug 21, 2013 | Engagements
We're super pleased to showcase a stunningly chic city Central Park engagement session on the blog today not only because KT Merry is one of our favourite film photographers but because this shoot makes us reminisce about our honeymoon stop-over at NYC. New York is one of our favourite cities in the world and we'd hop back there in a minute. We're not surprised that James and Taylor chose this epic city as the backdrop to their beautiful engagement session. "James and I became friends our sophomore year of college. We lived in the same dorm and shared the same friends. We became incredibly close, traveled together, went to concerts and music festivals together, and visited each other’s houses in the summers. As close as we were, we were just friends. It wasn’t until three years ago that our friendship turned into something much more. It all started when we shared a kiss outside of Radio City Music Hall after leaving a concert there one night." 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0007 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0065 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0046 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0136 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0087 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0033 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0112 Photography ~ KT Merry "Our engagement shoot happened to fall in the middle of one of the most intense heat waves New York City has ever seen. The heat was overpowering and sweating was unavoidable. Even with the overwhelming heat, our amazing photographer, KT Merry, made the day so enjoyable. It is a testament to KT’s incredible talent and to the talent of my fantastic makeup artist Agata that our pictures turned out as well as they did. Not only are they both talented beyond belief but they were such a pleasure to work with." 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0077 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0075 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0023 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0020 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0060 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0093 Photography ~ KT Merry 2013_07_15_taylorjames_0029 Photography ~ KT Merry
"At the end of the day, when we were unable to shoot at a planned location due to unforeseen circumstances, KT began taking pictures of us in the middle of the street. It wasn’t until after the fact, when I looked at the pictures, that I realized how perfect and fitting it was. As I looked at the final picture of James and I kissing in front of Radio City Music Hall it dawned on me that it was just about the very same spot James and I shared a kiss three years earlier the night we started dating. Many, many thanks to our photography team KT and Chad, and my makeup artist Agata for an unforgettable day and beautiful pictures we will cherish for a lifetime."
