There is something so exciting about photographing an engagement session. I had a wonderful time meeting up with Emily and Zach while they were vacationing on St. Thomas for their engagement session. We met at Limetree Beach just prior to sunset. Here are a few of my favorite photos from their shoot......

Engagement Photos: Saint Thomas
Once in a while I get to hear a love story that gives me chills. That’s how it was when Lynn and Frank told me their love story while I took their engagement photos at Limetree Beach.
This gorgeous couple met in the states and reside in New York City. They went to the same high school… in China. Not only did they go to the same high school in a country literally on the other side of the world, but they also graduated in the same graduating class! They even have mutual friends from the high school! It’s just amazing that they were so close together during a younger age, but it took them both travelling to a distant land to finally meet one another and fall in love. It seems that fate wants them together no matter what.
Lynn and Frank were traveling on a cruise ship through the Caribbean celebrating their upcoming nuptials when they landed in St. Thomas. I met them at one of my favorite spots to photograph, Limetree Beach at Bluebeard’s Beach Club. They got right off the ship and came straight to the beach, so they could capture my favorite light for the tropical water and white sands—the morning light.
Along with the amazing story, they’re an amazing couple. I’m thrilled to have gotten the chance to photograph them. Throughout the post, you’ll find some of my favorite shots from their session.
St. Thomas Engagement Session
I love capturing tender moments between newly betrothed couples. Devin and Rupal who are recently engaged, came to St. Thomas on a vacation that they would never forget. They contacted me to set up an engagement shoot and I quickly suggested we shoot at one of my favorite spots, Limetree Beach. I feel like I live there, but I love it! I can't get enough of this westward-facing beach on the south side of St. Thomas.
I do weddings, proposals, engagements, and family photoshoots at Limetree Beach. I've also recently done a beach modeling shoot here. It's the perfect beach for all your needs because even when there are people there, you feel like you're alone. This beach also has everything you could ask for with St. Thomas beach photography: rocks, water, perfect waves, grass, palm trees, and there's even a giant chess board!
Devin and Rupal came from Chicago to take a break from all of their planning for their huge Indian wedding so they could relax on the beach for a few days. They're a beautiful couple and they radiate love for one another. This shoot was so fun because of their personalities and the excitement they had during the session.
People always ask me what they should wear during their photography shoots. I always tell them to wear something that makes them feel comfortable and beautiful. You really can’t go wrong. Rupal didn't need my guidance as she showed up in this beautiful flowy pink and white dress which perfectly contrasted with the tans, greens and blues of the natural scenery. She had her fiancé in an outfit which would simply accent her dress. He was in gray pants and a white shirt and they looked perfect together.
