A Golden Hour Engagement Session at Mahogany Ridge

30 May

I loved being able to capture Raquel and Justin’s engagement session at the Mahogany Ridge in Trinidad! It was an afternoon that was filled with laughter, beautiful views and romantic moments. R + J have been together now for over 6 years. They got engaged in 2023, and their excitement for their new chapter was evident! Despite their initial nerves about their photoshoot, these two love birds quickly eased into the session and the results were amazing!

A Love Story at Mahogany Ridge

Mahogany Ridge is filled with breathtaking views that you can easily get lost in. As we strolled through the venue, we took our time to enjoy the scenery, chat and capture stunning photos. The soft light of golden hour added such a romantic glow to the already picturesque garden! It was the perfect backdrop for R + J’s engagement session

Tips for Relaxing During Your Engagement Session

Trust Your Photographer

R + J were a bit nervous at first and claimed they were “bad at photos”, but trust me, there’s no such thing! Trusting your photographer and being open to their ideas and suggestions can make a world of difference. I always strive to create a comfortable atmosphere for my couples.

Get lost in the moment

One of the best parts of Raquel and Justin’s session was how they allowed themselves to get lost in the moment. We played some of their favorite music, which helped them loosen up and forget about the camera!

Embrace the fun

Remember, your engagement session is a celebration of your love! It’s not about posing perfectly or looking a certain way. It’s about capturing the unique connection you two share as a couple. R + J had such a great time because they focused on the experience rather than the outcome.

be yourself!!!

Authenticity is key! The more you can be yourselves, the more your love will shine through in the photos. Don’t be afraid to show your true personalities and little quirks that make your relationship special.
