Stylish Beach Engagement Session
Combining a laid-back setting like the beach with a super chic black dress and a killer paid of Ted Baker London heels was a brilliant (+ gorgeous) move on this stunning bride-to-be's part. It's what we like to call taking the normal beach e-sesion and kicking it up a notch, and when you lay your eyes on the breathtaking images from The Obsession Collection, you'll know exactly what we mean. See it all here.
From The Obsession Collection... Dave and Stevie first met about five years ago while working together at bar on the gold coast; this was just the beginning, they have been inseparable since.
After asking Stevie's parents for permission, Dave planned a lovely engagement by taking Stevie to Port Douglas, walking her through a pretty park full of beautiful flowers and getting down on one knee. He had originally planned to do it on the beach, but Stevie was a little worried about crocodile breeding season, so Dave had to improvise. He still got the answer he was hoping for, Stevie cried and said YES.
Dave and Stevie are such a beautiful couple. Stevie was so nervous about the engagement shoot, but Dave made her feel at ease and the rest just came naturally. By the end, I didn't need to direct the couple much at all as they had forgotten I was even there and just really enjoyed each other's company.
It was a very gloomy overcast day, but absolutely beautiful for shooting outdoors, we went for a very natural look and really wanted to express the couples emotion and excitement of their engagement.
For all of these images I used Kodak Portra 160 to achieve soft clear skin tones and beautiful timeless images.
