Editorial and Timeless Vizcaya Engagement Session

February 21, 2025

Real Love Stories

Claudia + Julian’s engagement session at Vizcaya Museum & Gardens was the perfect blend of classic elegance and modern romance. With its historic architecture, sprawling European-style gardens, and that soft midday glow bouncing off marble and stone, every corner of Vizcaya felt like a page from a fairtyale love story. It was the ideal setting for an engagement session.

We started shooting midday, soaking in the bright light that made Claudia’s first look — a long, flowy white dress — absolutely glow. Julian matched her vibe perfectly in a crisp white shirt and black pants, giving off those groom vibes with a fresh twist. Every corner of Vizcaya felt like a scene from a classic film — slow walks through the gardens, soft kisses under hanging moss, and stolen glances that said everything without words. This engagement session was magical as we wandered through hidden corners of the gardens, stone staircases, and sun-drenched archways that looked like they belonged in Italy.

For their second outfits, Claudia slipped into a stunning maroon gown that turned every head, bringing all the drama in the best way. Julian went full black-on-black — a bold contrast that brought a sleek, sexy edge to the shoot. We explored the estate’s hidden nooks, stairwells, and fountains — letting the mood shift into something a little more intimate and sexy while still staying effortlessly chic. The chemistry? Undeniable. The way they looked at each other, moved together, laughed between shots — it was intimate, magnetic, and so authentically them. Their Vizcaya engagement session truly captured their unique connection.

Vizcaya was the perfect backdrop — historic, romantic, and rich with texture. Between the dramatic architecture and lush greenery, every frame felt like a classic painting with a modern twist. This session was everything — luxurious, editorial, and full of passion. Claudia + Julian brought the heat, and it was such an honor to capture the start of this next chapter for them during this extraordinary engagement session.
