Location Ideas

Figuring out a location for your engagement session is one of the most difficult decisions you will have to make! Do you want beachy cute couple shots? Shots inside of your favorite coffee shop? Shots inside your own home while you are baking, playing video games or just hanging out? The options truly are endless!

This post is meant for you to see a few of my favorite spots, why I like them and a few of my favorite shots in those spots so you can get a good idea of what it looks like.

1. Beverly Triton Beach Park - Mayo, MD

This is my favorite spot out of any other you will see on this page! Depending on how the weather has been we will either meet at the main park entrance or one closer to my home so we can walk the trail through the woods and end on the beach (If it has rained a lot the trail is a mud pit so we will just meet at the park entrance). This spot requires walking in the sand or potentially some muddy spots on a trail. I would highly suggest that you do not wear fancy/expensive shoes that can get destroyed. Its a beach - shoes aren't necessary anyway ;)

Also, if you are brave enough - we can get into the water for some more romantic shots for a session thats a bit different from everyone else's.

Keep in mind - with this location the sun rises over the water and sets kinda behind the trees. Sunsets are still VERY pretty here (the majority of the shots below are from the sunset timeframe below - FYI - no altered sun flares are added to the photos - all natural sun light) but if you want the sun peaking over the water, you will need to be an early riser that day ;)

Also! If it is scheduled to rain for your session this is the only location I will shoot at since it has potential to rain out completely cutting the session short. Ideally we want to shoot for a time that will have light rain or none at the start and its raining at the end of your time. If your session is scheduled to have some rain, be sure to bring a change of clothes and you can change at my home before you leave. Summer storms at this beach are insane - as you can see in the photos below!

Below is a link to the 3 different spots on this beach we can do your session. Please check it out if interested.
