need some fun ideas for our engagement shoot

My fiance and I are doing our engagement photo shoot later this month at 5 Pointz (the outdoor graffiti museum) in Queens. I'm trying to think of some fun things we could do or props to bring to result in a great shoot.... does anyone have any ideas? Any and all feedback is appreciated!! Thanks Ladies!

For those of you not familiar with 5 pointz here are some photos of it -http://5ptz.com/graff/

    Wow that's really cool but I'm sort of at a loss for ideas.  Why did you guys pick that location? Maybe some background would help?

    Looks like a really cool location!

    Only thing I can think of is a cute sign to match, with "Save the Date" If you are using them for that reason =)

    That's so cool!

    No suggestions - other than what Midge said about the Save the Date sign.

    Have fun!

    So to answer your question.... We chose the venue because we wanted some really cool, modern, downtown edgy pro pix to juxtapose with the very traditional country club shots that will be done at the wedding. Our original ideal reception venue was in Manhattan but due to our enormous guest list (325) we had to move to someplace more economical at that size. Therefore we still wanted to capture the city vibe in our photos so that's why we chose 5pointz. 

    Additionally my fiance is a fantastic artist so our plan right now is to have him create a graffiti painting of our wedding date that we will bring to the e shoot to take STD photos

    That's fantastic, I was going to suggest something like that!  Or maybe you guys could even pretend to be spray painting your own graffiti or something?  Maybe besides the wedding date he could also make some other wedding/love related artwork to incorporate into the pictures.
