{engagement} love in new york chinatown and grand central station

this engagement session is actually rather special

cause it's of Carl and Christina.

Christina is THE Christina of Chinatown- 

a well known NYC Chinatown blog- definitely check it out here.

not only that, she is the owner of the infamous and award winning

Chinatown Ice Cream Factory.

hence the required ice cream cone shots above.

love that the session took place around places that were significant for them.

and of course, the ones of them in Grand Central Station are just plain amazing.

all captured by the talented

Autumn Lin.

thanks to Christina for sending over her engagement session.

congratulations to you both and i can't wait to see the wedding!

xoxo,

i just want to see you...

...when you're all alone
i just want to catch you if i can
i just want to be there
when the morning light explodes
on your face it radiates
i can't escape
i love you till the end.

i love that this took place in the heart of chinatown, new york.
the sights, smells and sounds make you forget that you are in america.
it's so real.

best ice cream in new york.
p.s. my college friend's family owns this place.

love.

the next three make my heart go
pitter patter.

ack i die.

ryan flynn,
you know how to rock it.
for seriously.

i love the "real" feel of this engagement session.
there's a lot of debate between styled engagement shoots and shoots like the above.
either way, as long as it results with love like this,
i'm just dandy with that.

throw in a genius photographer like
ryan flynn
and you're absolutely set.

congrats to dan and joy!

and huge thanks to ryan flynn for always letting me share his gorgeous work.
