Ideal time for a photo session | Jupiter Coral Cove Park Engagement Session

Engagement sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. I’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos. I normally plan sessions based on a particular “look” a couple has in mind.
Sessions typically last about an hour and when I can— I love to begin sessions about 1-1.5 hours before sunset.
I prefer to shoot when the sun is lower in the sky to avoid harsh shadows and bright sun patches. The first two hours after sunrise is also an ideal time to shoot especially beach sessions.
I schedule sessions during what I believe will be the best light of the day – which means that it’s super important to be on time. If you’re late to an evening session, we could run out of light before we’ve finished shooting and if your session takes place in the morning, the sun gets more harsh as it rises.
Daisy and Colton’s session was in the morning right after the sunrise. Since they wanted beach photos, I recommended having the session in the morning (As we are on the East coast). I love seeing beautiful sunrise coming up on the horizon line. It was such a glorious morning with these two!
