If you had told me a few years back that I would be photographing an engagement session just feet away from my childhood home, I would’ve called you crazy. But LIFE is crazy, not us! When my super fun Richmond couple Lauren and Zach told me that they were moving to South Florida I was super excited. I then became ecstatic when they told me they chose DELRAY BEACH.. MY HOMETOWN! After debating Virginia locations for their engagement session Lauren finally asked “why don’t we just do a Florida engagement session?”

Delray Beach Florida Engagement Session | Atlantic Avenue Engagement | Lauren and Zach

I’ve known Lara since our high school, Freshman year Biology class. That was almost 15 years ago!! It is surreal for me that I am actually posting these photos. So much time has passed and our friendship has stayed just as strong ever since we were teenagers. I am beaming from ear to ear for her and Louis as they expect their first child: baby girl Olivia.

South Florida Maternity Session | Naples Maternity Photos | Lara and Louis

I definitely have a tad bit of biased favoritism towards this couple! Not only because they are having a stunning idyllic wedding in Italy that I get to photograph this fall but also because I have known Andrew since he was a little kid! I used to have sleepovers at the Jones’s house all the time in high school. Lara’s little brother would be running around with the dogs and poking fun at all our girly slumber party activities. Over ten years later, he is all grown up and getting MARRIED!
