LOCATIONS

FOR NYC PHOTOGRAPHY

Central Park is a photographer’s dream, blending iconic city views with timeless charm. You can romp through the wide-open greenery of Sheep Meadow for skyline views, or head to Bethesda Terrace for grand, European-style architecture and soft, glowing light. For a touch of romance, the stone arches of Gapstow Bridge offer a picture-perfect backdrop that feels straight out of a movie - complete with The Plaza Hotel in the background. These iconic landmarks are exactly why so many travelers choose this park for their New York vacation photos with us.

The north end of Central Park is a quiet paradise for little ones. Shakespeare Garden offers a fairytale maze of flowers and rustic paths, while the East Meadow provides a peaceful, wide-open lawn for babies to play freely. For a touch of elegance, the Conservatory Garden features stunning fountains and manicured blooms that feel like a private oasis. These serene spots are perfect if you are looking for a professional Central Park photographer for baby portraits who knows the park’s hidden gems.

New York's waterfront parks perfectly blend harbor charm with big-city energy. Wagner Park offers lush greenery and front-row views of the Statue of Liberty, while Gantry Plaza State Park showcases a cinematic, sprawling look at the Manhattan skyline. For the ultimate "New York" moment, Brooklyn Bridge Park provides an iconic mix of pebble beaches and world-famous architecture. These stunning vistas are exactly why visitors hire a pro vacation and portrait photographer like Michael Kormos to document their trip.

Tribeca is a favorite for its quiet cobblestone streets and chic lofts, while the Upper West Side provides a refined, cinematic feel with its elegant brownstones. For a creative, artsy vibe, Red Hook features rustic warehouses and stunning waterfront views. Capturing these distinct vibes is why booking Michael Kormos Photography, who offers a specialized photoshoot experience is so important.
