Coney Island is the ideal spot for couples aiming for the rustic or whimsical vibe. Brimming with picture perfect spots, there won’t be a shortage of spots for you to capture photographs and to get imaginative. Make full creative use of the environment and play around with the light, pine trees, beaches or props that you brought to create a shot that’s uniquely yours. If possible, wait for the colours of the sunset to soak the island for a warm and soft effect.
