Tony & Sonya's NYC Engagement!

What an unforgettable weekend this has been. On Friday night, Tony proposed to Sonya on the ice at Rockefeller Center! It was super romantic: Tony was able to clear the ice, play the first song they danced to (Joe - I wanna Know), and then got down on his knees and proposed to Sonya in front of New York City! His "Engagement on Ice" at Rockefeller Center, was very emotional, and the crowd watching the excitement below was roaring with joy. And so were we!



Putting the ring on...on the Rockefeller ice rink! Go Tony!



To cap off the magical weekend, the next morning before their flight back home to Houston, Texas, we went out for an engagement session. I could see it in their eyes how happy they were, and we felt so lucky to get the opportunity to share this special moment in their lives with them. I can't wait until we meet again, and it feels awesome to have two new friends out in Texas now! You two rock!





They looks so happy together..





I love both of these (above & below).



This shot was so much fun



Sonya looks beautiful!



Thank you Sonya & Tony for being a great couple! Also thanks for Tak and Thai for helping out with some great second shooting, and thanks for Phil for being a great assistant on the day!

It was so much fun hanging out with you guys and of course the lovely couple. I must say, I learned a lot on how to make a woman happy from Tony! Tony is the true definition of a "Southern Gentleman" and of course Sonya is so pretty! The two are such a perfect couple. The pictures are amazing! =)
