Photos in Bethpage State Park?

Hi ladies!

Has anyone here ever taken photos in Bethpage State Park? Our ceremony venue is right next to it, and my fiance and I would love to take our first-look/couples shots there. My fiance looked it up, and there's a fee to take pictures in the park. Our photographer seems to think we can get away without paying it, but I wanted to see if anyone has any idea how strict they actually are about this?

Thanks in advance for help!
