Engagement Shoot Location??!!

This is first my time starting a post... So here goes nothing! I'm looking for a scenic location to shoot engagement pics with my photographer, Jaylim. I mentioned Gantry Plaza to them and they said I should look into permits etc. that all sounds too complicated lol. Where else is a great central spot for different scenic shots that doesn't require any excessive fees & paperwork/wait time?

Engagement Shoot Location??!! - Long Island Weddings

Hi!

I was just in ur shoes not too long ago. I was totally overwhelmed trying to pick a spot especially since i wanted to take them soon and nothing is blooming outside. I finally decided on Planting Field b/c they have a lot of like structures and greenery so we can get some nice outdoor shots hopefully even though its stills winter. We did have to get a permit cost $100 for 3 hrs. If you go on their website you can download the form and send it to them!

I think Old Westbury Gardens has a similar situation!

Good luck!!!

Re: Engagement Shoot Location??!!

Planting Fields is really nice my friend did that. She even brought props to make it look like she was having a picnic. I am doing an indoor and outdoor. (i did the indoor ones already) For my outdoor ones im doing it a little different since ill have garden pictures from my location- I'm doing Rockaway beach (where we met), Time square and DUMBO (overlooking the brooklyn bridge). They make great pics-i have seen a lot of people do them there. I dunno if I need permits. Does anyone know? i just plan to show up and take pictures till they stop us
