Jessi has been coming to Englewood for years with her family.  They love the beaches and enjoy boating and fishing.  

This year her fiance Daniel came as well and it was the perfect time to have their engagement session.  They are getting married next spring in Orlando so this was their opportunity to have a beach session.  Jessi knew right away that she wanted to shoot at Stump Pass Beach State Park.  Besides just having the beach and water, there are lots of spots with seagrasses, mangroves and trees.

We met an hour before sunset and started our shoot.  We took photos on the boardwalk and found little walk outs to the Intercoastal Waterway.

They enjoyed moments together and their love for each other shined through.

We moved down to the water and captured some photos of them walking and being together.  I made sure to capture some images of the back of Jessi's dress because it's so pretty.

It was a cloudy evening and we didn't get a colorful sunset so we headed back to the sea oats and captured one of our favorite images of the entire session.  

The sun had officially set and the park ranger was getting ready to close the gate so it was time to end our session.  They ended up with close to 50 photos that they LOVE and are going to use not only in their wedding announcements but print to decorate their home together.
