Fort Lauderdale Engagement Photos

Fort Lauderdale engagement photos with Andrea & Michael

Fort Lauderdale is a tropical oasis filled with easy access to the beach, and all the best places to dine or stay. I love that the city provides a landscape of year-round delight with surprises around every corner. It’s a gorgeous location where the sun always shines, and Fort Lauderdale was the perfect spot for Andrea and Michael’s engagement photos.

I met with Andrea and Michael on the streets of Fort Lauderdale for their engagement photos one sunny afternoon. The idea of capturing your engagement photos when the sun is blazing might sound off-putting to you, but I have to admit, I am not afraid of working with my couples directly in the sunlight. It always produces the best shadows and a radiant glow that cannot be duplicated.

Luckily, Andrea and Michael were on board with playing around in the streets of Fort Lauderdale when the sun was at its peak. Not only that, but they came dressed to impress. Andrea was positively luminous in a shimmery celestial gown covered in a layer of tulle with embroidered stars. She paired her gown with a pair of gold platform sandals, professional hair & makeup, and, of course, her sparkling engagement ring. Michael was chic in every sense of the word. He wore a crisp white suit jacket with a blue dress shirt, and he skipped the tie. I love that more and more of my grooms to be are ditching their ties for their engagement session. It gives their look the perfect blend of chic with a dash of casual thrown in the mix.

We began Andrea and Michael’s engagement photos in Fort Lauderdale in front of a few iconic locations. One of our first stops was the “Greetings from Fort Lauderdale” mural. Anytime I work with clients on their engagement photos or wedding portraits in South Florida, I love to take advantage of the vibrant street art as a backdrop. It’s such a unique way to add varying backdrops to their photos while bringing a fun level of whimsy to their session.

Next, we began to stroll through the streets and made some unplanned stops along the way. It’s amazing how the flow of traffic, the front of a hotel, or even a coastal divider; seemingly everyday things, can suddenly transform into an artistic scene. That has to be one of the many things I love about working with my couples in Fort Lauderdale to capture their engagement photos. There is never a shortage of inspiring settings to transform their day into a celebration of their engagement and their upcoming wedding.

We ended the session on the beach. Andrea ditched her heels to walk along the beach with Michale as the whitecaps of the Atlantic Ocean gently lapped the shore. We had the beach all to ourselves and the only sound present were the seagulls cawing in the distance. I was able to get Andrea and Michael to comfortably sit in the sand for a few more snaps before our time together drew to a close. I have to admit, they were absolutely natural in front of the camera. They are so at home in each other’s arms, and they weren’t shy about cuddling up close to one another while I captured their engagement photos on Fort Lauderdale Beach.
