I feel like I’ve photographed a million engagement sessions in Hoboken but would you believe I have NEVER photographed an uptown Hoboken engagement session?? Hoboken is only a mile square long and because of how small it is, you wouldn’t think uptown would be any different from downtown but it is WORLDS different! Less crowded, so much more quiet than it is downtown and so spread out! When Desiree & Eric told me when they booked me as their wedding photographer that they wanted their engagement session to be in Hoboken but uptown where they live, I was SO excited to finally explore uptown through my camera!
Desiree & Eric were the best tour guides – bringing me to all their favorite spots by the Hudson River. That’s all thanks to the walks they talk with their adorable rescue dog, Brownie. What a cutie! She was a little apprehensive of this stranger following her family around with a camera on her evening walk but she quickly warmed up to the camera and was just a HAM! lol I immediately bonded with Desiree and Eric because we had a shared love for animals. Not only do they have a dog but two cats (who are the sweetest!) Animal lovers are the best people 🙂 So when they asked if Brownie could be a part of their engagement session, I was so excited! Of course!! Luckily Brownie had some modeling experience when she was at the rescue shelter in Jersey City (they helped out at the shelter and IMMEDIATELY fell head over heels for their adorable Brownie!) so it felt so easy to grab photos of her. She was just so happy to be outside walking around! Adorable!
It was a HOT summer night in Hoboken but before we knew it, their engagement session was over! Eric, like most guys, wasn’t too thrilled with the thought of taking engagement photos but I think it was worth it – I just LOVE their photos!! It was so fun walking around Hoboken with these two, hearing all about the crazy busy year that they have before their wedding day is here next July. What’s crazy is next July is going to be here before you know it! Desi and Eric, thanks so much for letting me capture you both around your lovely town of Hoboken! I hope you love the photos as much as I do and I hope it gets you ten times more excited for your wedding day next year!! 🙂 Enjoy my favorite images!
