Playful Summer Engagement Session in St. Petersburg on Digital + 35mm Film

July 1, 2025

Real Love Stories

Kelsie + Ben’s in-home engagement session in St. Petersburg was the perfect mix of cozy, playful, and wildly fun. Set at their home with a private dock, pool, and boat, this shoot felt personal and full of life, like a sun-soaked Florida day turned into memories.

We started with a dressed-up look by the water, capturing soft moments on the dock and some stunning drone shots with the boat and shoreline. After that? Swimsuits, floaties, and a spontaneous water fight that turned into pure magic. Their energy together was infectious, from getting spicy on the pool steps to splashing around like kids, it was the kind of session that didn’t need to be posed.

This in-home shoot was a perfect reminder that the best engagement sessions are the ones that feel like you. Real, unfiltered, and full of love, just the way it should be.
