Gracie & Kyle’s Engagement Session

Gracie & Kyle flew in from Colorado for some important meetings and on the list of things to do was shoot Engagement Photos with me!

The theme of this shoot for me was “Summer Luxury” capturing the beauty in the subjects, location and available lighting. I wanted to capture a feeling of the Amalfi coast, french Riviera/ Hamptons kind of feel. I love what came out of it!

Such a great couple, fun lively, easy to laugh with and just overall two great human beings. Photographing their wedding is something I’m looking forward too.

Enjoy some of these pictures!
