Winter Engagement by the Sea ~ Pier Park

February 16, 2012

I love going back to meaningful places with couples for their engagement photos.  Pier Park was the place where Juan proposed to Stephanie, so it was the perfect spot!

This is the exact spot of the big proposal!!!

Newlywed Session ~ Watercolor Resort

January 19, 2012

Ashley and Porter were just married this past year, and they contacted me because they had never had engagement photos taken and really wanted some images to document this time in their lives.  We headed over to gorgeous Watercolor Resort and enjoyed a magical (and warm!) winter evening running around laughing and shooting until after the sun set:)

Beach Fun ~ Panama City Engagement

January 11, 2012

I had a blast at Heather and Adam’s engagement shoot on Shell Island!!!  It was such a gorgeous spot, and extra special because it’s the same place Adam proposed to Heather after a boat trip and a romantic beachside picnic:)  These two are so fun, I can’t wait for their wedding in a few months at Tops’l Resort!

Flowers and Sand ~ Watercolor Beach Resort

November 29, 2011

I met with Denise and Cullen on a lovely fall evening at Watercolor Beach.  After going back and forth on location ideas, I’m so glad we chose this one.  It is so beautiful there and the autumn evening light was just delicious:)  That paired with their obvious affection for each other made for a fun session!  We started at the park and then hit the beach…

Mallory and Steve ~ Alys Beach

October 11, 2011

I’m finally getting back in to the swing of things after moving across the world and having my 3rd (and last!) baby:)  I am just loving the Florida panhandle and all of the gorgeous locations here.  It’s so fun to explore and shoot and meet new people all at the same time.  Last week I had the pleasure of meeting this lovely couple, who drove down from Alabama for their engagement session.  Our location was just minutes from where Steve had proposed months before!  SO hard to narrow down my favorites for a blog post, but here goes…!

    What a gorgeous session. I love the outfits they wore and they are such a beautiful couple. I love all the love you captured as well…the ones of them close up are just perfect. I think my favorite is the one where he’s putting his hand over her face while she’s laughing…it’s so funny and adorable!! You always use such perfect locations too. I’m so jealous of them having these….I need something like this of my husband and I:)

A Trip to the Castle

Nakagusuku Castle ruins might just be my new favorite location!  It’s full of lovely old walls, gorgeous views, dense foliage and open fields…sigh:)  I met this lovely couple in the late afternoon sun and we managed to finish up just before they closed the gates on us!
