ENGAGEMENT. Orchard beach. bronx, new york - couple fred & carmen. october, 2021

Friends,

You don't have to ask me twice to head to Orchard Beach in the Bronx -- my happy place -- for an engagement shoot! That's where I photographed Fred and Carmen, and it was an absolute dream session in every way!

We headed to the beach around 5:30pm just when the sun was about to set, which made the light especially soft, ad the beach waters appear shimmery.

"It was just gorgeous to be there with Fred and Mildred guiding us along the way to calm our nerves," said Carmen. They are such a sweet couple and the love just shined through. It was a pleasure to capture this day for them!

Carmen wore a pink long dress that made her look beautiful in it, and Fred opted for a more relaxed look of a plaid shirt and blue jeans, which blended into the beach scenery perfectly.

For their wedding day in September 2022, these two lovebirds are heading to the alter at a venue in the Bronx. I have no doubts that it's going to be a beautiful day full of sunshine, love and joy!
