Enchantment in the Heart of Manhattan

New York City, the pulsating heart of art, fashion, and romance, boasts an array of stunning venues that epitomize the city’s allure. Among them, 620 Loft & Garden stands as an oasis of elegance nestled atop Rockefeller Center. With its panoramic views of Manhattan and iconic landmarks, it serves as the perfect backdrop for a fairytale-inspired styled shoot, where bridal dreams come to life in the midst of urban splendor.

Partnering with Kleinfeld Bridal, home to the most extensive selection of designer wedding gowns in the world, our vision for this shoot was to capture the essence of modern romance juxtaposed against the timeless beauty of New York City. And what better designer to embody this vision than Pnina Tornai, renowned for her breathtaking creations that seamlessly blend sophistication with sensuality.

Floral arrangements from Flowers by Brian, cascading blooms in hues of blush and ivory adding a touch of whimsy to the sleek, urban setting. The gentle rustle of leaves mingled with the soft strains of classical music by the Devonshire Players, creating an ambiance of serenity and enchantment.

Against this picturesque backdrop, our stunning models emerged, each adorned in a masterpiece by Pnina Tornai. From intricate lace to sumptuous silk, the gown exuded grace and opulence, reflecting the diverse personalities of our stunning model. The dress was a testament to Pnina’s unparalleled craftsmanship and attention to detail.

As Kenna captured video of every moment, it was impossible not to be swept away by the romance and allure of the scene. Against the backdrop of the city that never sleeps, love blossomed in all its splendor, transcending time and space.

In between shots, our team took a moment to reflect on the magic unfolding before us. It was more than just a styled shoot; it was a celebration of love, beauty, and the enduring spirit of New York City. From the breathtaking views to the exquisite gowns, every element came together seamlessly to create an experience that was nothing short of extraordinary.

The memories we created in New York with my dear friend Kenna will linger forever, a testament to the timeless allure of love and the incomparable beauty of New York City.

In the end, I owe immense gratitude to Ani Wolff for her talented design and execution of the most perfect styled shoot at 620 Loft & Garden. From the countless planning phone calls, text messages and FaceTime dates, you made all of my dreams come true and I will forever be thankful for your friendship. It was more than just a photoshoot; it was a journey into the heart of romance with my dear friend Kenna, where dreams are realized against the backdrop of one of the world’s most iconic cities. As Kenna and I packed up our gear and bid farewell to the rooftop oasis back to Kansas City, I knew that we had witnessed something truly magical—an enchanting union of love, beauty, and the indomitable spirit of New York City.
