I love any excuse to head down to New York City, but especially for a surprise proposal. Central Park is the most iconic location in NYC for a surprise proposal for Couples who live in the city or even Couples who are just visiting. There are over 50 bridges and arches in Central Park, eight lakes and spans across 843 acres.
When planning this proposal for this Couple, he wanted to surprise her during their Sunday walk with their adorable pup. He told me exactly where he wanted the proposal to happen and we discussed which way they would walk up and where I would be. Having a game plan for a surprise proposal is essential.
Here are a few of my favorite images from this December proposal in Central Park.












After the Proposal we wandered around Central Park for some candid and lightly posed Engagement Portraits.
