Sunday in the [Prospect] Park with Jack.

So what does a wedding photographer in NYC do on a free weekend off? Well, I spent a day in Prospect Park, in Brooklyn. Haven’t been there in a couple of years.

I have to tell you, it abounds with architectural splendor! I haven’t photographed a wedding there in a while, but there are a couple of really cool venues to host a wedding reception in the park, and there are so many spots for great images all around that maybe, just maybe, you ought to consider it if you’re planning your wedding in the New York City area.

For the reception venue itself, there’s the Picnic House and the Boat House, right on a pond. It’s charming. Has that old world look. Made me feel like I’m in Europe circa 1901. I took these with a little point n’ shoot, capturing a few details that grabbed my eye. There’s so much in the way of ornate details and statues and carvings and, well, thought I’d give you a heads up about it. Even without a wedding, it’s worth the trip to take it in.

Here are a few photos to feast on:

Can you imagine your wedding guests strolling along the water's edge here?

This would be such a cool setting for a wedding photo in Prospect Park.

I mean, just look at this beautiful detail!

All these amazingly cool structures for wedding photography in the park!

Okay, so, this has nothing to do with Prospect Park, or wedding photography for that matter, but it made me laugh. Here’s what happens in Brooklyn if you don’t move your car when you’re supposed to. I caught this image later that night.
