A Holiday Beach Engagement Shoot

Written by | filed under Photography + Videography | 3 comments

I fell so in love with this holiday inspired beach engagement shoot by Jessica Claire that I couldn’t resist sharing a few of my favorite images. I love the cozy mix of the deserted beach, a glittering Christmas tree, lots of cuddles and a touch of faux fur and cable knit. Throw in beautiful flowers and a bunch of sweet kisses, and you’ve basically got the perfect little love shoot.

If you remember Angela and Andrew’s beautiful castle wedding, you’re going to love their absolutely gorgeous equestrian day-after shoot captured by the amazing Justin & Mary.

I’m a big believer in celebrating little every day moments. I like to take any excuse I get to make something special and do just that. So, when I recently discovered 365 Days of Breakfast, I fell immediately in love. A celebration of breakfast. Something so simple and yet, I’m finding, so very special. Beautiful photos, quiet moments, and endless inspiration.

All of the rustic, Nordic inspired details feel …
