Justine Milton was photographing an engagement session of Dom and Nick, whose apartment building in Brooklyn was built with soaring windows that ushered in wonderful natural light and a breathtaking view of Manhattan, when she realized there might be a slight problem to solve. The Calgary-based photographer’s aesthetic is bright and sunny, but to avoid the view from getting completely blown out, she had to tone down her settings.

“Technically we didn’t use their apartment, we used the public ‘party room’ space at the top of the building,” says Milton, who shot the couple earlier that day on the Brooklyn Bridge. “We had to move a ton of furniture out of the way to get this shot!”

(Shot on Contax 645 with Fujifilm Fujicolor PRO 400H Color Negative Film, like most of her work, and processed by PhotoVision Printing.)
