Queens Prom Photography

There are several great locations in Queens that you can visit for your Prom Photography. Several parks in Queens that work perfectly for prom photography or any type of photoshoot include:

Flushing Meadows Park

Kissena Park

Forest Hills Park

Long Island City Pier s

When deciding which park you will want to have your prom photos taken, it really is going to be a good idea if you can have a brief discussion about it with your photographer. This way you can go over the logistics of the start time and location of your prom event. Some things that you will want to consider when planning your prom photoshoot is the distance of your event from the location that you will want to have your photos taken and the time that your event starts. In addition to the distance, you will also need to factor additional time for any traffic especially if your prom is being held during the week. Therefore, it is usually wise to allow for additional time for this.

If you are interested in having your prom photography taken right before you take off for your prom event than I suggest that you get in touch as soon as possible since May & June are busy months for events that also include communions, graduations, weddings, birthday parties, Mother’s Day, etc. Everyone has an event that they want captured! In addition everyone in general just wants to schedule an outdoor photoshoot since the weather is so nice.

NYC Senior Portraits/Dylan’s Senior Photos

NYC Senior Portraits/Dylan’s Senior Photos

It was so much fun taking these NYC Senior Portraits of Dylan. Dylan was such a natural in front of the camera. He looks like a model, doesn’t he? You can see how at ease he was and how much he enjoyed taking these senior photos. Many people think that senior photo sessions are just for girls but this is not the case. Boys can have fun doing these type of photos to! Senior photo shoots are meant to be individualized and customized to a Senior’s individual personality. Most boys don’t enjoy being posed in a formal suit or outfit. Why not have them dress in their style and capture them in the environments that they enjoy being in and/or with a prop of an activity that they enjoy doing or are involved in. Since Dylan loved being in grungy urban streets and loved riding his skateboard, I took his photos in a urban location and had him bring his skateboard. I had him dressed in a black hoodie and black ripped jeans that worked real well in the environment we worked in. Other ideas for senior boys include having them pose in front of a car, bike, motorcycle, or, taking some cool athletic photos of the sport that they play, i.e., basketball, football, hockey, baseball, soccer, etc. These can be taken either in studio or on location at their high school gym, football field or baseball field. The possibilities are endless! If you are a senior in High School and would like to have your own individualized senior stylized shoot instead of having the same old boring photo with a rose and cape everyone else gets, if you want to be different and most importantly experience something different please contact me here.

Below are some favorites from this photo shoot with Dylan.

How cool are these photos? We went from natural daytime to nighttime in just minutes! The beauty and magic of photography!

NYC Senior Photographer/Samantha’s Urban Session

NYC SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHER/SAMANTHA’S URBAN SESSION

NYC offers so many fantastic, unique and diverse locations for a NYC Senior Photographer. High school seniors are all different. They all have unique personalities, interests and hobbies. This is why it is great to have a unique and customized senior photo session as opposed to the traditional cap and gown and black cape and rose portraits taken at school. Yes, you do still need to take the cap and gown photo for the yearbook but you can still have your own unique, stylized professional photos to commemorate this special time in your/your child’s life. With a stylized photo shoot, seniors get to experience and feel like they are fashion models while having fun and an experience that they will remember forever. The outcome is gorgeous photos that they and you will have for a lifetime.

There are so many ways that a senior photo session can be stylized in NYC. Seniors can get dressed up in pretty dresses and go to a park such as Central Park for their photos, or, if they are just too “cool” for the park and prefer to be more casual they can opt for a more urban or grungy look. The streets of NYC offer plenty of locations for that in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens. Some areas even offer both environments just minutes away.

Below are some of my favorite photos from Samantha’s senior session. For her session we went to a few street locations in her neighborhood of Queens that had commercial buildings and graffiti. Since Samantha likes to skateboard, we used her skateboard as a prop for some of her photos. This is another great idea you can incorporate into your custom senior session. If you play a sport, an instrument, dance or sing you can bring a prop from your hobby and incorporate that into some of your photos.

NYC Senior Photos:Photo Session in Central Park

NYC Senior Photos:Photo Session in Central Park

NYC Senior photos allow seniors to capture a memorable moment of time in their lives through fun and creative pictures. A senior photo shoot in NYC is quite different from the graduation photos that are taken at school. Having a senior photos taken in NYC can be quite an amazing experience. NYC has so many landmarks and backdrops that offer many opportunities to create some creative and unique photos. NYC has tons of streets and buildings that make for great urban backgrounds, and it also has Central Park, which is one of the biggest and most beautiful parks of the city that is right in the middle of Manhattan. The opportunities in Central Park alone for photos are endless!

These are some photos I took of Aaliyah last fall. We did her senior photo shoot in Central Park. We got to capture some really creative photos of her around Bethesda Fountain, a very popular spot in the park for photos.

Having your Senior photos taken is a very important milestone in your life. If you are a teen or senior graduating in the NYC area, or are traveling to the NYC area soon, and would like to have a unique, fun and amazing experience while getting some really cool senior photos that are different from what your friends back home are getting, please contact me to discuss the possibilities that we can create for your Senior photoshoot.
