Cinematic Couples Photoshoot in NYC: West Village & Washington Square Park

I spent an autumn afternoon capturing a cinematic couples' photoshoot in NYC, wandering the darling streets of the West Village and the iconic Washington Square Park. Every part felt grainy and film-like, full of emotion, movement, and like “old love”. 

Why Choose the West Village for a Couples Photoshoot

The West Village is perfect for lovers looking for vintage and cinematic charm. The cobblestone streets, brick buildings, and ivy-covered corners create a natural backdrop for grainy, film-style photos. 

Cinematic Moments at Washington Square Park

Washington Square Park adds iconic New York energy to your session.  Features like the arch and the fountain offer lots of inspiration for cinematic storytelling. Motion and natural light make photos feel like a still from an old film.

Tips for a Grainy, Film-Like NYC Session

• Color harmony: be intentional with the scene you are trying to create and always add details. I am a huge fan of embracing color to add a pop. 

• Movement: always run and dance. Embrace movement
