New York City is the city that never sleeps. That’s why many people come to this great city to enjoy the nightlife. Even when you’re from the area, you want to make sure that the city you love is incorporated in your special moments. Every year, people want to photograph the majestic beauty of NYC. When you’re on a rooftop, you want to be embraced in the concrete jungle. That’s what Raymond had in mind, to incorporate the feel of NYC in the surprise engagement proposal he had planned, where he asked his beautiful girlfriend, now fiance Meredith, her hand in marriage!

The Kimberly Hotel was a great choice with their balcony overlooking the many skyscrapers of NYC. Her parents actually were hidden away, and they laid down the scene! Literally! They put the floral petals down, placed the champagne for the toast, and the bouquet to be given after. Who doesn’t want to be proposed to on a New York City rooftop? It was just magical and I wish all the very best to the young couple starting their journey. I love proposals, capturing them and sharing them is what I love to do. Helping capture these moments so my couples can relive it time and again is priceless. I’m humbled to be a part of it!
