Long Island Marriage Proposal at Morgan Memorial Park

I am happy to share this Long Island marriage proposal at Morgan Memorial Park.
Parul proposed marriage to Tova at Morgan Memorial Park in Glen Cove because this was the park that they always hung out together at when they first started dating.
Tova was totally surprised!
Parul also rented the EXACT Chevrolet Camaro he drove – during that time period.
A lot of research and legwork went into making this engagement happen.
As well as so much sentimentality – romance & nostalgia went into his planning!
Well done Parul!
Sharing some of my favorites from their amazing marriage proposal.

After weeks of hazy – humid – foggy -overcast skies – I was thrilled to have this incredible sky as a canvas for Parul & Tova’s marriage proposal/engagement.

Special thanks to my assistant Frank for holding my softbox way high in very windy conditions – on rocky ground (not easy).

This awesome sky with it’s glorious God rays are real sunbeams – not photoshopped or AI… just saying 😉😂

I could revisit this park but never duplicate this photo/moment due to this magical sky.

The yellow Camaro against the colorful sunset was an epic closing photo to this session.

I always recommend scheduling your surprise marriage proposal approximately an hour before sunset.

The golden hour lighting is flattering – you may be able to get sunset photos together and finally – plan dinner afterwards so that your future fiancé will be dressed up so photo session ready.

I would love to capture this priceless moment for you and your future fiancé.
