Sessions built for visitors

Pick a session online, choose your time on the live calendar, and show up. Every shoot is directed, so you never have to guess how to stand.

Proposals

Plan the question, and I'll catch the answer. Discreet setup, then a short couples session right after while the moment is still fresh.

Where we can shoot

Start in the studio on West 29th Street in Manhattan, or take the session outside. We pick the spot around your schedule and the light.

The studio

115 W 29th St, Suite 606. Weather proof, fully lit and a few blocks from Penn Station.

Central Park

Bridges, paths and trees. Classic, green and easy to reach from Midtown hotels.

DUMBO and the Brooklyn Bridge

Cobblestones, skyline views and the bridge everyone recognizes.

The West Village

Brownstones, quiet streets and small details that feel like New York.

Questions visitors ask

How far ahead should I book?

As soon as your dates are set. The booking calendar shows live availability, and weekends go first. If you are in town for a few days, aim for an early slot so there is room to reschedule if the weather turns.

Can you photograph a surprise proposal?

Yes. Book the couples and proposal session, then we plan the spot and the signal ahead of time so your partner never sees it coming.

What should we wear?

Solid colors, clothes that fit well and one outfit you feel great in. Read the portrait session planning guide for a full checklist.

Do you shoot outside the studio?

Yes. Outdoor and on location sessions are available across Manhattan and Brooklyn. Choose an outdoor or indoor and outdoor package when you book.

Do you travel outside New York?

Yes. Imran is based in New York City and available for travel, including the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Caribbean. Send a message with your dates and location.

Your trip, photographed properly.

Choose a session, lock in your time, and leave New York with more than phone pictures.
