Make this photo of you
Rooftop photos in New York.
You above the New York skyline as the sun drops behind the towers. Made from a few selfies, ready in about 60 seconds, and one click from a short video.
Late June, 8:15 pm
The skyline, soft
Sunset by the water
Shooting it in New York
The light
Northern light runs cool. Magnt matches that color, so the skyline behind you looks shot there, not pasted in.
The season
Ask for late spring or summer. Long evenings give you the low, warm sun this shot needs.
Why it stands out
New York skies go gray for months at a time. A warm rooftop photo is rare in that feed, which is why it gets noticed.

Me above the New York skyline as the sun drops behind the towers, relaxed smile, natural skin texture, shot on a 50mm lens.
Make it move
A 5 second slow turn as the city lights come on behind you.

Your city. Your light. Your photo.
Pick the place, add a few selfies, and get the shot. Then make it move.
