Sharon Bushman - New York City Proposal and Wedding Photographer

Originally from Livonia, Michigan, I graduated from Western Michigan University with a theatre degree. I then moved across the Atlantic and made London, England my home. While there, I attended Mountview Theatre School and lived the life of a struggling actress. After 7 wonderful years, it was time to return to the States and try my luck in the Big Apple.
Well, life happens, priorities change, and I discover a tremendous passion for photography. I was particularly fond of portrait photography and decided that I could merge my two "loves" by taking headshots for performers.
Then, I had an opportunity to do a Surprise Proposal photo shoot and that was it! I was immediately bitten by the love bug! Shooting engagements and weddings makes me a happy girl! Getting to share such a special day with the couple and their friends and family is a truly awesome experience.

I look forward to meeting you soon!

alex + leslie – wedding in central park, nyc

Time to close our eyes and travel back in time…to the lovely, warm days of early September. Alex and Leslie traveled from Texas to NYC for their wedding in Central Park. I had previously shot their engagement photos so I was thrilled to see them again to shoot their wedding! I also had the pleasure of working with I Do New York once again. Alex and Leslie are HUGE New York Yankees fans and this was evident in many of the details and the fact that the next day, everyone went to a game as well! Of course the Yankees won :-) They also share a love of theatre and used an engagement shot to make their Playbill program which was SO cool. After the ceremony at Wagners Cove, everyone headed to John’s Pizzeria in Times Square for lunch (my favorite pizza in NYC). There, the guests opened envelopes containing tickets to the Broadway show, Jersey Boys!

The whole afternoon was fantastic and I’m so happy to have been a part of their day! Below are some of my favorite shots.

As always, CLICK HERE to watch their SLIDESHOW! Way more photos and fun times!
