Engagements and Proposals

Fun engagement pictures in Garden City on a cold afternoon and Storyboard 3

Couple walking down marsh boardwalk together at sunset

I haven’t had a chance to blog about engagement portraits recently. Things are getting slow, so I thought I would post pictures from this recent cold weather engagement session down at the southern tip of Garden City Beach. I’ve done many photo sessions in Garden City, but this one was unusual because they live in a private neighborhood where I usually can’t photograph. The southern end of Garden City is beautiful. It’s a short walk from the beach to the boardwalks that go out and over the marsh. I rarely get to shoot on a marsh walkway because most of these are privately owned and marked with no trespassing. They also brought along their two dogs to get in some of the shots. Because they are still puppies, they wouldn’t sit still for more than a second or two. Besides it being so cold and the couple having to suffer from freezing a bit, I think everything went well. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
