This was my first time walking over what has become my favorite bridge in all of Central Park. As I did, I came upon this bride and groom getting their pictures taken by their wedding photographers. I always seem to run into wedding parties in parks, and for the most part leave them alone, because I don't want them to loose focus on the directions they're receiving from their photographers. But every once in a while I can tell when I can get a shot that wouldn't be a distraction, and in this instance I got several.
I just love the 'Bow bridge' and I chose this off angle to better highlight the great architecture of this the most famous transverse in Central Park, as well as to make sure their wedding photographers maintained a clear line of sight to their subjects. Of all the shots I took of them that afternoon this one is my clear favorite.
