From the yacht club, we made our way to East Beach. The Ocean House loomed gracefully in the background, adding a historic charm to the beach setting. Allie and Adam strolled hand in hand along the sandy shore, the waves gently crashing at their feet. Their laughter was contagious, and the way they looked at each other made it clear that this was a love built to last. To add a celebratory touch to this beautiful moment, they popped a bottle of champagne right there on the beach. The cork flew high, and the bubbly cascaded, mirroring their overflowing happiness. Capturing the sparkle in their eyes and the joy of that spontaneous celebration was a highlight of the day
After our beach adventure, we headed to St Clair Annex for a well-deserved treat. Allie and Adam enjoyed scoops of their favorite ice cream, adding a playful, fun twist to the session. Their carefree nature shone through as they shared bites and sneaked in a few kisses, making for some delightfully sweet photos.
As the day began to wind down, we drove to the Watch Hill Lighthouse in Allie and Adam’s sleek Mercedes convertible. The setting sun painted the sky in hues of pink and orange, creating a breathtaking, pastel-hued backdrop for the final part of our session. With the lighthouse standing tall behind them, Allie and Adam shared a quiet moment, soaking in the beauty of the sunset and the significance of their engagement. The soft light highlighted their features, and their love for each other was evident in every glance and touch.
This engagement session was more than just a photoshoot; it was a beautifully curated date night that perfectly encapsulated Allie and Adam’s relationship. From the elegance of the yacht club to the relaxed vibe of East Beach, the sweetness of ice cream at St Clair Annex, and the romantic sunset at the lighthouse, every location added a unique layer to their story. The classic architecture, natural beauty, and historical landmarks of Watch Hill provided a picturesque setting that elevated every shot, making the day feel like a scene from a vintage film.
Allie and Adam, thank you for letting me be a part of this special day. Your love is inspiring, and I’m honored to have captured these precious moments for you to cherish forever. Watch Hill, with its coastal charm and elegant landmarks, will always hold a special place in my heart, just as it does in yours.
Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and beautiful memories!
