Both the Bethesda Terrace and Fountain are some of the most iconic locations in Central Park to do a photoshoot. It’s one of the first spots in New York City I recommend because it’s recognizable. My amazing client and her husband flew in from Dallas, Texas because they wanted to celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary. There was almost a hiccup though because the day before our photoshoot there was actually a large snowstorm. I’m lucky to have amazing clients, and this couple was such a trooper and determined to make the best of their stay!
