The storefronts, the lights, the decor and the magic of New York during the holiday season… with a setting like this, who needs anything more? The city is always the perfect place for a great photoshoot, but with all the Christmas buzz, there’s really no need for additional accoutrement. Photographed by Rebecca Crumley {who you also know as The Knot ‘s photo editor and blogger }, the shoot focuses – quite perfectly – on Cassie, John and the magic of the season. And the results are magical.
From the Photographer, Rebecca Crumley: So while you may know me as the weddings photo director for The Knot and blogger for The Knot Wedding Obsessions blog , I’ve actually always been a photographer! From time to time I shoot weddings myself and was totally excited when my future clients Cassie and John were up for an engagement shoot. With the help of Melissa from Chandelier Events and makeup extraordinaire Tim Wilkins , we hit the streets of New York City for a festive holiday-themed photo shoot.
My favorite New York City holiday tradition is stopping into Rolf’s for a Christmas cocktail, so it was a must-have location on my list! Other stops included Union Square, a Christmas tree lot, the windows of Saks Fifth Avenue, the Palace Hotel , The Campbell Apartment , Grand Central Station, and of course the New York subways. And since we scheduled it the same day as SantaCon NYC , I was totally psyched we found some willing Santas to pose with Cassie and John!
