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!
