Cara and Brian’s August engagement session at Sherwood Island State Park in Westport was the epitome of a perfect summer evening on the Connecticut coast. We wandered from the willow tree to the water’s edge as the sun slowly dipped toward the horizon. Cara and Brian fell into each moment so naturally, the kind of love you don’t have to direct. The beach holds a special place in their story and as the evening came to a close, they ran straight into the waters of Long Island Sound without hesitation. There’s something undeniably special about embracing spontaneity, creating photos that feel as unforgettable as the moment itself.
