Photographer for (Affordable) Engagement Shoot in NYC?

in New York-New York City
Hey all,
My fiancee and I are getting married in FL, but want to take our engagement photos here in NYC where we live. Some of the prices I've seen for ~2 hours (without also hiring them for our wedding) seem very high - has anyone had a wonderful experience with a great photographer for an engagement session... that was also reasonably priced?

Someone willing to do 'touristy' spots - ie: Central Park and Times Sq preferred :-)

Thank you!!

Shari

    BJ Enright is fantastic!! I know he's moving to NYC sometime in December or January, so I don't know if you can wait that long but his engagement sessions only cost $200. I would definitely check him out- cannot recommend him highly enough!

    Hey Ddiva- That price doesn't include the dvd- I think it's an extra $75 for the disk of all the images, but still totally worth it!
