Long Island Beach Proposal Photographer | Engagement

I am so happy to share another Long Island beach proposal, this time at Long Beach Town Park in Nissequogue.

Maybe you came across this blog searching on Google for a “Long Island Beach Proposal Photographer.”

Photographing proposals on the beach is quite popular as most Long Islanders are beach lovers.

Planning a proposal on the beach makes logical sense as visiting the beach is a natural part of many Long Islanders lives.

 

Beaches on the North Shore of Long Island have the added advantage of the sun setting on the water which makes for stunning engagement photos.

This was my first time visiting Long Beach Town Park and I was able to do so because it was during the off season.

Otherwise this park is only open to residents of Smithtown with a parking sticker.

This is common for town and county beaches.

I always recommend to check with the park officials for permission beforehand.

 

Oftentimes, my clients will request to photograph at a beach that is meaningful to them as a couple.

Long Beach Town Park is a special place to Michael and Neeve and they enjoy it’s  stunning sunsets together.

Michael purchased a charming picnic basket just for the proposal and  planned for a quick bite before their evening dinner plans.

With 25mph winds, Michael and I discussed rescheduling it.

However, he decided to proceed and it all worked out beautifully!

Although it was EXTREMELY windy…the sky and the sunset was spectacular!
We had the entire beach to ourselves  (how awesome is that to have total privacy when popping the question)?!
And Neeve said, “YES!”
Well done Michael!

Afterwards, they were such good sports taking some engagement portraits in the gusty conditions.

Sharing some of my favorites from their special evening.
