We had the pleasure of photographing an engagement session at Lake Runnymede Conservation Area for a couple whose wedding we’ll be capturing soon. Nestled in St. Cloud, Florida, this location is a hidden gem with its scenic landscapes, picturesque oak trees, and serene waters—perfect for documenting a love story.
Why Lake Runnymede Conservation Area?
When our clients approached us about their engagement session, they wanted a spot that felt intimate and connected with nature. Lake Runnymede Conservation Area offers a unique blend of tranquil trails, grand oak trees draped in Spanish moss, and quiet lakeside views that make it an ideal backdrop. This setting not only complements their love story but also gives us the chance to explore different locations within the park, capturing both candid and posed shots.
A Prelude to Their Wedding Photography
Doing an engagement session with a couple before their wedding is a wonderful way for us to get to know them and their style better. For these two, it allowed them to grow comfortable in front of the camera, understand our approach, and even practice a few poses they’d like to include on their wedding day. We could feel their excitement and love in every shot, which we know will make their wedding photos even more meaningful.
Why Engagement Sessions Matter
Engagement sessions aren’t just about photos; they’re about capturing a couple’s unique connection and excitement for their future together. By having an engagement session, couples can relax and have fun, resulting in photos that are natural, heartfelt, and authentic. Plus, these images are perfect for personalizing wedding decor, save-the-date cards, and photo albums.
Looking Forward to the Wedding
As we look ahead to their wedding day, we’re even more thrilled to capture this journey from their engagement to the moment they say “I do.” We know that Lake Runnymede will always hold a special place in their story, and having this connection to their engagement photos will add an extra layer of sentiment on their big day.
