Sanibel Island is one of our all-time favorite places to photograph engagement sessions!  Not only are its palm-lined beaches breathtaking, and perfect for watching the sunset, but its nearby marina is gorgeous and provides an absolutely stunning setting for portraits.  We were thrilled when Jillian and Noah chose Sanibel for their engagement session, and we couldn’t wait to connect!

The evening of their session could not have been more beautiful, and we set off to explore the island together.  We began below the palm trees as sailboats slowly made their way along the shoreline.  After learning that Noah had actually proposed on a sailboat at sunset, we knew our second stop for their session would be all-the-more special!  After finishing up at the beach, we headed to the marina to close out the night.  We had the best time chatting as we explored, and it’s been so much fun getting to know these two!  

Jillian has a heart of gold serving others in the medical field, and she met Noah, who works in finance, while in college in Tampa.  The two love to travel, and Noah frequently flies back and forth from New York to Florida, soaking up every second of spending time together.  They are now planning their wedding, and will host their big day at the incredible Adams Estate.  Surrounded by gorgeous gardens alongside Lake Alfred, we have no doubt it will be nothing short of perfection from start to finish! Jillian and Noah are working with the amazing Kelsey of Bloom & Grow Events to create their dream wedding, and we are incredibly honored to be a part of documenting their celebration. We are already counting down the days until next winter when we can continue capturing their love story as they celebrate with their family and friends!
