Deep Cut Gardens & Sandy Hook Beach Engagement Session | Francesca & Kevin

This session was a special one. Francesca is our GIRL. She has helped our couples create their beautiful weddings albums for the past 4 years so when it became her turn to get married and plan her wedding we were honored that she asked us to capture it.

Francesca had a vision for her engagement session and honestly, we loved it so much. Their session took us from the gardens at Deep Cut Gardens to the beach at Sandy Hook, giving us two completely different settings in one session. What we did not expect however was the massive amount of smoke we would receive from the Canadian wildfires. We coughed our way through Deep Cut and only survived half an hour at Sandy Hook before the smoke and the little gnats attacking us became unbearable. Luckily, we were all available the next day to complete the vision.

Part 2 at Sandy Hook was a complete 180 and gave us the golden hour beach vibes we were aiming for. It made it all worth coming out again. Can’t wait for their wedding next year!
