Coastal Engagement Session at Point Pelee National Park

This cute couple from Connecticut traveled north to the Canadian coast for their nautical engagement session. After growing up together in Ontario, these high school sweethearts headed to the States for college and wanted their engagement photos to reflect the nautical culture they had grown to love.
With a few simple props, this engagement session is all about the picturesque coast and this couple’s love. Feel free to peruse the full gallery here to see more of the beautiful images Vicki Bartel Photography captured of this coastal engagement session.

From the Bride:Michael and I moved to Connecticut for school and now work. Living on the east coast boasts a very relaxing life style, relaxing on the beach on the weekends and of course the boating/sailing life. This is something we didn’t get to enjoy growing up in Windsor Ontario.

We do not know how long our stay will be in Connecticut so we thought it would be a great idea to incorporate the beach, sailing and the feel of the east coast in our engagement pictures so that we could capture this moment in time in our life. There is nothing we have done differently. We love our engagement pictures. Vicki truly capture us has a couple.
