Though they are San Francisco natives, Monique & Surag are avid New York City lovers.  And, really, who can blame them?  So, when they came for a trip this holiday season, they thought what better place than New York City to have their engagement photos taken?  And, obviously, I couldn’t have agreed more.  There is always something special about engagement photos, but I find engagement photographs taken with the backdrop of the city to be particularly special.  I think it has something to do with seeing time stand still in a couple lost in a moment with one another and yet feeling this constant motion in the background, all frozen forever.  I can’t fully describe it, but I love it.

We met on a sopping wet day at Grand Central and then headed down to Milk & Cookies for some (take a guess) milk and cookies.  It was so much fun and I had a blast getting to know this sweet California couple while tromping around in the rain.

Monique & Surag will be getting married next fall on a beautiful vineyard in Northern California and I know it will be a day as amazing as they are.
