Newborn Photography by Josh Wong – New York City

Newborn Photography by Josh Wong – New York City
April 5, 2010

Today, I got a chance to schedule in some newborn photography. Even though I’m smack in the middle of doing my engagement photo sessions for my New York City Brides of 2010, how could you resist newborn photos. Newborns only stay at that age for a very short period of time. Hazel might not remember this day, but when she grows up and looks looks back at these photos, she’ll truly appreciate them. Enjoy!

Below are some of my favorite photos.

Winter Engagement Photos in New York City – Morgan and Brian

January 3, 2010 – Morgan and Brian’s Winter Engagement Photos in New York City.

I am a little late in posting these engagement photos but better late than never! The engagement session began on one of those New York winter days where the thermometer outside read 20 degrees but if you were out walking around instead of nicely tucked in your home, it felt like 3 degrees. You definitely need to put your hands together and give it up for Morgan and Brian and their adorable dog, Joey as they braved the freezing cold weather and wind. We shot the engagement photos around the Museum of Natural History, one of my favorite places in the City. Below are some of my favorites.

Mike’s Surprise Proposal to Jenn

Mike’s Surprise Proposal to Jenn
February 27, 2010

When Mike contacted me several months ago to ask me whether I wanted to photograph a real proposal to his girlfriend Jenn, I couldn’t resist. Mike planned an elaborate game with the owners of MetroMetro’s Amazing Race-inspired scavenger hunt around NYC. The day began at Riverside Park on 145th Street then the Upper West Side and then Greenwich Village and Union Square and a few other notable spots around the city until finally ending up in the front courtyard of New York University’s Law School, (where Mike is finishing his law degree and where he would pop the big question). Throughout the day I was in constant contact with Brady, who was coordinating the race. He updated me on whether they would make it to the law school courtyard on time or early. Mike and Jenn showed up a little bit past 5 o’clock, all dressed up as instructed by their last clue. Jenn continued trying to figure out their last clue while Mike waited for the right moment. I had hidden myself at one of the side entrances of the courtyard and shot the entire proposal on the sly. After the proposal and the secret was out that I photographed the entire sequence, we headed over to Washington Square Park for a few shots to complete their engagement adventure in New York City. Since this was right after a huge snow storm had rolled through New York City, the NYU courtyard and Washington Square Park were covered in a white snow blanket, which gave us the perfect backdrop for the big proposal and engagement photos. Congratulations to Mike and Jenn! Thank you for the privilege of capturing this very special moment. Best wishes to you both!
