A Windy, Wintry NYC Engagement Shoot – Mila & Aaron

NYC Engagement Shoot

“And that is why I’m marrying her,” Aaron said with a broad smile. “That is reason number three hundred sixty eight why I’m marrying her,” he corrected himself as he pulled Mila closer into him.

The truth is, it was freezing cold.  The weather reports said it would be slightly chilly, and the day had been quite nice, but all of a sudden, right when we started our golden hour engagement shoot, the freezing winds picked up and were absolutely relentless.

But Mila, with exposed legs and only a thin dress underneath her coat, had a smile on her face and was totally game for our shoot.  Even though she had substantially less layers than everyone else, she wasn’t about to let some freezing wind dampen her spirits.  And that is reason three hundred sixty eight why Aaron is marrying her.

Mila and Aaron’s engagement session spanned the Whitney Museum, where they had their first kiss, and the Highline, where they had their second date. We also had some pit stops for coffee and warmth, and I was in photographer’s heaven when Mila and Aaron ducked into a furniture store for warmth and continued to cuddle and smize through the window (see below).

Mila and Aaron, you two are a dream!!  If we can have this much fun and get such beautiful photos during the freezing cold January, I can only imagine what your wedding will be like in April.  I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again…  I’m obsessed with you two!!!

Do you feel the love?

I know it can feel scary, but I promise you won't be locked into anything, and it will be fun to connect.

If you like what you're seeing and are curious to know more, I'm just a quick message away.

We cannot sing the praises of David Perlman enough. Most importantly he made us feel at ease during the entire day (and really the entire planning process). You can see it in our photos how comfortable we felt around him, sharing a very intimate and special day. We’re very lucky that we choose him as we not only have amazing images (and album) from our wedding, but also a new friend. - Evan S.
