So last week, on a cold winter morning, Victor, Emmy and I (and my amazing assistant, Christy Zheng) set off on an adventure to get some amazing shots in the bustling city of New York. Victor Ouyang hails from New York, while our beautiful belle, Emmy Ngo hails from L.A. This couple is proof that a Long Distance romance can work. They met while Victor was visiting his cousin in LA, and was unexpectedly given a day to spend with Emmy in Disneyland. His cousin was suppose to join, but she got very sick last minute! Talk about destiny! Victor would visit LA almost every other weekend, fly in Friday night, and get back to NY on Monday morning just in time for work– that is dedication. Victor proposed by pretending that he had an urgent call from work while he was in LA, and had to leave Emmy’s side suddenly. After she dropped him off at the airport (and she was very sad), he quickly rushed back into her house (while her mother stalled her with phone calls) and surprised her with a ring and a goofy smile. SO CUTE! I’ve known this couple from the start– and I remember seeing Victor texting Emmy and being nosy kept asking him who it was.
Anyway, our google excel sheet had an extensive list of places to get to, starting with Central Park, then off to Times Square, heading over to the area around Rockefeller then finishing it off in DUMBO, brooklyn– with some travel time and meals in between. (YES, we went to ‘Victor’s Cafe’ to have lunch) We knew it was going to be a jam-packed day- and we started off with determined energy. Although the weather was “frightful” outside, it was still a ton of fun to be with them, swerving in and out of the crazy holiday crowds and Victor, being a great trooper and driving in the heavy masses of traffic, taking naps in between, finding bathrooms to change in and parking. The photos turned out great, they were naturals and being completely paparazzi-ed by me! So here are some of the photos we took. This time I did things a little differently, some of these are moving images, so please be patient, take a few moments to let everything load, and check em out! My favorites are the ones in Times Square
Enjoy!
