We know. This shot. So romantic! When couples choose the coast for their engagement photos, they tend to want to keep things simple. A setting as naturally beautiful as the one above obvs doesn’t need much other than a couple like Kelli + Nick. They met at the beach, got engaged at the beach, and pretty much live at the beach (her words!). Carmen Santorelli shot their love story in the most natural way too.

The flowing greenery a la Plenty of Petals gives that teal dress an even more ethereal feel.

Kelli explains, As we love the afternoon beach light this was definitely the time of the day for us to shoot our photos. We picked the very talented Carmen Santorelli as our engagement shoot photographer. We wanted someone that does not just photograph us on the beach but that can truly capture the essence of our relationship in a piece of art.
