Real NYC Engagement Session | Victoria + Christopher in Greenpoint

Greenpoint engagement session on Merci New York
Who doesn't love a good sunset?  Those last few "golden hours" against a glowing city skyline makes life look especially romantic.  With a great backdrop and a fun loving couple, Anne-Claire Brun certainly catches an air of romance in these photos of Victoria and Christopher.

The couple met at a McCarren Park Pool Party in the summer of 2008, but were both dating other people at the time.  They shared a donut at Peter Pan Dounts in Greenpoint, BK, that day and went their seperate ways.  When Victoria went back on the market, however, Christopher wasted no time in scooping her up.  They went to see Les Savy Fav together at the Brooklyn Masonic Temple and the rest is history...

Victoria on her engagement: "It was so sweet and simple!  Chris and I were eating dinner one night - the Monday before Thanksgiving 2010, actually - and he looked at me and said, 'Will you marry me?'  It was so unexpected that I told him to shut up.  But once I realized he was serious, I gave him a very enthusiastic yes!"
