Engagement Photos in Babylon
Babylon has some of the best backdrops on Long Island for an engagement session. Here are the spots we love, when to shoot them, and how to feel like yourselves in front of the camera.

When to shoot
Plan it for the last hour of light
We plan your session around golden hour, the last hour before sunset, when the light is warmest and most flattering. Late spring through early fall gives you the longest evenings and the softest color, though a crisp winter afternoon has its own quiet magic.
What to wear
Two looks, soft colors, feel like yourselves
Bring two outfits, one relaxed and one a little dressed up. Soft, solid colors photograph best, and coordinating without matching exactly reads warmest together. Wear what makes you feel like yourselves, because that is what comes through in the photos.
