Rachael and Matt's Engagement Session on the Beach - Ocean City, NJ

Writer's picture: Emily MortonEmily Morton

When I first spoke with Rachael and Matt to discuss their engagement session, I got the vibe that a traditional, more formal type of session just wouldn't feel authentic to them, so we opted for something a little more unconventional and headed to Ocean City, NJ for a super fun shoot.

I loved getting to capture these two being themselves, laughing together, running in the sand and splashing in the ocean. The July weather was perfect with clear skies. The bright, direct lighting from the sun gave Rachael and Matt's portraits such a gorgeous, warm glow.

It was really a wonderful experience to capture these two in a way that felt most true to them, giving them the opportunity to have an adult play date, chasing each other along the beach, letting inner child run free and savoring every moment.
