East Village Photoshoots with Dante's Models

The East Village packs a lot into a few blocks: old brownstones, street art, community gardens. We shoot portraits, fashion and model books here, and we pick the spot to fit what the pictures are for.

What We Shoot in the East Village

• Portrait Photography: anything from a headshot to a full-body portrait, in whichever corner suits you.
• Fashion Photography: the street style around here does half the work for an editorial look.
• Professional Headshots: for actors, corporate professionals, and models updating their portfolios.
• Editorial Photography: for magazines, brands or a project of your own.
• Model Portfolio Development: a book with range, shot across a few different parts of the neighborhood.

East Village Photo Spots We Use

Tompkins Square Park is the green one. Trees, old buildings around the edges and people everywhere. It works for relaxed portraits, engagement sessions, and fashion that wants a bit of nature in it.

St. Marks Place is loud. Shop fronts, street art and a crowd that never thins out make it good for fashion, editorial and bold portraits.

Astor Place has the "Alamo" cube sculpture and a busy intersection with big buildings around it. We use it for strong headshots and contemporary fashion.

Alphabet City is quieter: brownstones, community gardens, residential streets. It suits lifestyle shoots and portraits that should feel like a regular New York block.

East River Park runs along the water with the Manhattan skyline, the bridges and the East River behind you. Come at sunset, or bring a fashion shoot that needs a wide frame.
