Engagement season is in full swing, and we could not be happier to be meeting so many sweet couples getting married in 2023 and 2024!  As we anticipate this year’s weddings, we love that we get to connect with several of our couples in Southwest Florida for their engagement sessions.  Unlike those who fly down from the North for a Destination Session, Alyssa and Cruz call Florida home, and get to enjoy its beauty year-round!  They are absolutely perfect together, and we had a great evening exploring the streets of Naples, and ending their session at the Pier.

One of the reasons we love engagement sessions is that they give us a chance to meet our couples and get to know them before their wedding day.  As we strolled the streets together, we chatted a bit about living in the south.  Alyssa, who is originally from Michigan, shares our appreciation of the warmer winter weather that Florida has to offer.  We also discovered that the very first pizza place we visited after moving down last year is owned by one of Alyssa’s family members!  Originating in Michigan, and now all over the U.S., Jet’s Pizza was delicious, and is just one of many incredible places to eat along Southwest Florida’s coast.

It has been so much fun getting to know Alyssa and Cruz, and we are honored to be photographing their wedding this coming December!  They will host their big day at the breathtaking Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa in Bonita Springs, and we are already counting down the days. The incredibly talented Carrie Darling Events is coordinating their dream day, and we can’t wait to capture all of the beautiful details!  We have no doubt their wedding will be nothing short of stunning, and we are so excited to celebrate alongside their family and friends!
