One of my favorite 2022 shoots was a birthday party at The Empire Rooftop last summer. On the Upper West Side, next to Lincoln Center, it's one of the most popular bars in the city in the summer - and with good reasons - the views alone are prime and gorgeous, the food is great and the atmosphere is sophisticated. I It's one of the most iconic bars in New York City, so I was thrilled to have the chance to photograph Pablo's 50th birthday party!


With the most beautiful set of friends (I mean, look at them!), Pablo celebrated his birthday with his wife (and party mastermind!) Isabel, a taco bar and the bar to themselves, overlooking the city. They partied through sundown in the most perfect August weather. Nothing beats a rooftop party in summer - a night to remember indeed!
