Lauren + PJ | Tropical Couple Photos at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida

On Friday, March 12th, I had the honor of capturing Lauren & PJ’s tropical couple photos at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida. Lauren is also a photographer based in New Jersey! Her and PJ were in town to capture a client’s engagement photos and decided to schedule a session of their own! It was such a pleasure working with them both! They were complete naturals from start to finish, and I had such a great time working with them!

Their breezy tropical session took place at Coral Cover Park in Jupiter, Florida! It’s becoming quite a popular spot, highly requested by my clients. For good reason - it’s a gorgeous park with a lot of variety! The session ended with a gorgeous cotton candy sky—my favorite!

Lauren & PJ, thank you for allowing me the honor of capturing your Jupiter vacation photos! It was such a pleasure meeting and working with you both! I hope you love your photos!

Alissa + Albert | Coral Cove Park Engagement in Jupiter, Florida

On Monday, February 15th, Andrew and I had the pleasure of capturing Alissa and Albert’s Coral Cove Park engagement in Jupiter, Florida. Their session was perfection from start to finish! We had an absolutely gorgeous day! It wasn’t hot or cold and it was filled with golden sunshine. But what made all the difference, was the way these two radiated together. The smiles and sweet glances they gave each other filled each frame with so much joy and love. THIS is why I love my job. It’s these effortlessly genuine moments that I get gitty about behind my camera.

Alissa and Albert were professional models within the first set of photos! They took my direction and then made it their own by just being themselves; it was a lifestyle photographer’s DREAM. As a lifestyle photographer, I often wait for those candid moments that usually happen in a transition from one pose to the next. It’s the moments when: a joke leads to a huge belly laugh, a sweet whisper sparks a tender embrace or a glance says “I love you”. It’s in these moments that I adore being a photographer a little bit more. I’m given the opportunity to document a timeless glimpse of the beginning — a tangible memory of the start of a lifetime. One where one day, first generations will look back on and still feel the love they shared.

Alissa and Albert: You both were a dream to work with! We can’t wait till your big day!! If your engagement session is any indication of how your wedding day will go, then we know beautiful things are in store! We hope you enjoy your engagement photos for many years to come! See you next year! :)

Samantha + Daniel | Whimsical Engagement at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida

On Tuesday, November 17th 2020, Andrew & I had the pleasure of capturing Samantha and Daniel’s whimsical engagement session! Their dreamy engagement shoot felt straight out of a Nicholas Sparks novel. Tall swaying trees, strolls in the park, flowing dresses, and sweeping waves filled this session. From beginning to end, their session was perfection.

Samantha and Daniel have been together for eight years and met through their friends! They are so sweet together and we are so excited to document their wedding day in May of 2021!

Dreamy Beach Engagement at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida

On July 24th, 2020, Andrew & I had the pleasure of capturing Alex & Gavin’s dreamy beach engagement photos at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida. This little park is right next to Jupiter’s Blowing Rocks Perserve which is where Alex wanted her photos done initially. But due to beach closurers, Coral Cove Park was perfect! I had completely forgotten about this little park! We captured a wedding here almost five years ago! It was so nice to be back because this park is gorgeous!

Alex & Gavin are one of the most patient couples ever! I say this because between Covid-19 beach closures, and the most rainy summer ever, we had to reschedule their session four times!! In my ten years of photographing, I have never had to rescedule that many times, never more than twice! The weather this Summer has been the worst and most unpredicable I have ever seen, and I’ve lived in Florida my entire life!

Finally, we had a day with a completely clear forecast, with no rain in sight until 9PM. Well, we started our session a little before 7PM with clear skies and gorgous weather, but by 7:30PM storm clouds were in sight. Luckly, we were able to shoot until a little after 8PM with no rain! And we got the most epic backdrop of stormclouds and even a RAINBOW!! Yes, somehow we got a rainbow before it rained and it just showed up directly behind them as we were taking photos on the beach! It was the perfect touch to add to this dreamy beach engagement session!

Their session was a long awaited one, but man, was it worth the wait!!

Alex & Gavin, it was such a pleasure working with you both! We hope you love the photos, and enjoy them for many years to come! We pray God continues to bless you both as you start the next chapter of your lives!
