    We were all over the Upper West Side of New York City, but spent a lot of time in Central Park. This is over-looking Turtle Pond at Belvedere Castle.

    They are such a fun couple!

    This one is my favorite.

    Or maybe this one is my favorite.

    This one looks like the cover shot for a romantic movie poster. (This is where my posing inspiration for engagement sessions comes from — I study movie posters.)

    Sometimes when I ask people to lay down on the ground and make silly faces, I get the strangest looks back, as if to say, “YOU lay down on the ground and make silly faces!” But Alisa and Jason had no fear!

    Love the simple drama of this one.

    Alisa and Jason live in West Virginia. They met in West Virginia, but when they first started dating, they both lived in the New York City area. This is the club where they had their first date, Dive 75.

    Jason’s only request of the day was for me to take a picture of them eating a hot dog from a street vendor. Only problem was that by the time we found one, they must have been starving (you know, from the rigorous photo-shoot workout I give people) because they chomped that hot dog so fast I barely had time to make sure I had the exposure set right on my camera. Yikes! Good thing I’m pretty fast with all the buttons on my new camera now.

    This is Alisa’s requested shot. She loves it when Jason picks her up and swings her around. I love the flying pearls!

    This is my requested shot. What is it about feet that say so much about people?

    We had lunch in the cutest little restaurant with GREAT window light!

    And even though my working space was, a-hem, cozy (thank God for my wide angle lens), Alisa and Jason had a private table in the corner! How cool is that?

    Alisa forgot to paint her nails, so she did it while waiting for the quiche. Jason helped out. He’s so sweet.

    I figured the folks back home in West Virginia would get a kick out of a few subway shots. There’s more in the slide show. Note that we were riding the subway at rush hour. It was packed!

    I love this ring shot! Such a beautiful ring too!

    Breathtaking! I absolutely loved every shot! I can hear Alisa’s laugh when I look at these. (Her sis is one of my dearest friends) And You’ve Got Mail is one of my fav movies ever! Perfect! I wish I lived near NY. These are dream pictures!

  2. Amy in SC says:

    What a fabulous shoot! These are really stunning–love them all, but my faves are the wide b/w shot of them with the crowd around, her kicking up her feet, and the 5th one–super romantic and passionate. Great job!

  3. Jamie says:

    Jules, this was so delightful to watch. What a lovely couple, and as always, outstanding photography! And so perfectly choreographed to the music– how do you do it!

    I’m really excited to see you soon! Sending you a hug, and hi to Bradley, Gregory, and Mike!

    Lee Ann,
    You ROCK! Cafe Lalo from You’ve Got Mail is exactly right! It was so cool to be in there and I swear I don’t know how they fit big softbox lighting in there for that movie set because that place is quite cozy. Thanks SO MUCH everybody for commenting in my blog! Ya’ll are great! (Alisa’s accent brings mine out every time.)

  5. Heidi says:

    The red coat is stunning in this shoot. As are the pearls. That cartwheel just makes me jealous, though…

  6. Alisa says:

    WE LUUUUUUUUUUUUV OUR SLIDE SHOW!!!!!
    Jules is The Best.
