Sahra and Demetrios http://www.genekosoy.com/new-york-proposal-sahra-demetrios/ http://www.genekosoy.com/new-york-proposal-sahra-demetrios/#comments Fri, 04 Mar 2011 01:02:42 +0000 genekosoy http://www.genekosoy.com/?p=1270 Last week I flew back to New York to photograph another couple. This was not an ordinary shoot, Demetrios was to propose to his sweetheart, Shara, in the middle of the shoot. He even arranged for a professional saxophonist, Michael Seropyan, to play a song during the proposal.  I was excited about the addition of the musician in the scene, since it goes with my ongoing theme of couples pictured with musicians. Sahra had no idea what was going on, thinking this was just a cute couple shoot. I along with my cousin/assistant/interior designer, Jenia Kosoy, were in on the secret and helped Demetrios stay on schedule.

Needless to say, everything went according to plan. We met up at Battery Park in the South of Manhattan.  We then took some shots around Sahra’s apartment building, and got busted by security for taking photos in the common areas. We took the train up to Central Park where Michael was waiting for us with his sax on the famous Bow Bridge. It all happened so fast. There were many people on the bridge, and suddenly it felt like Demetrios and Sahra were the only people that mattered. Everyone stopped in their tracks as Demetrios got on one knee, and Michal began to play. Sahra said “Yes!”, everyone clapped and we moved on to continue with the rest of our shoot. Its a beatifull time of year in New York, its somewhat cold, and there is snow on the ground, and the air is crisp. Spring feels like its around the corner. We finished off the shoot with another wardrobe change (total of 3), and headed to Time Square for our final few shots. It was an amazing day, stay tuned for the Sahra and Demetrios’ wedding photos yet to come.

I had another shoot with Pamela, this time with a make up artist at the Rock-it Room in San Francisco. The owner of the venue is a cool guy named Marco, and he was nice enough to let us do a professional photo shoot at his venue. The make up artist, Lauren Warner is awesome, and I had the pleasure of working with her on the Mouth to Mouth Shoot a year ago. For this shoot we went with the more rock and roll approach and so far in the post, its looking like what’s intended.  Here are a few shots:
