Some love stories take years to unfold, while others strike like lightning—unexpected and undeniable. Kelly and Jake’s story is the latter. From the moment they met, there was no question: this was it.
Wolfe’s Neck Park Engagement
It all started when Kelly left her backpack at a table before heading to the restroom. When she returned, she found Jake sitting beside it. Without hesitation, she playfully asked, “Were you thinking of stealing my bag?” Instead of being caught off guard, Jake laughed, and what started as a lighthearted exchange turned into a conversation neither of them wanted to end. From that day forward, they were inseparable. Just four months later, they were engaged.
Even though they live in sunny Florida, when it came time for their engagement session, they wanted something different—something coastal. While on vacation in Maine, they reached out to me, and we chose the perfect spot: Wolfe’s Neck Woods State Park in Freeport, Maine. With its rocky coastline, towering trees, and peaceful ocean views, it was the ideal backdrop for them.
From the very first click of my camera, it was clear that Kelly and Jake aren’t just in love—they have fun together! They danced along the trails, hand in hand, laughing as the salty breeze played with Kelly’s hair. They paused to pick up a crab along the rocky shore, marveling at the little creatures like two kids on an adventure. Watching them interact, I could see how naturally they fit together.
The magic of Wolfe’s Neck Park isn’t just in the scenery, though that certainly didn’t hurt. The rhythmic sound of waves against the rocks, and the crisp Maine air all added to the romance of the evening. But what truly made the session special was Kelly and Jake’s undeniable connection. They weren’t just posing for photos—they were living in the moment, fully immersed in their love and the beautiful place they had chosen to celebrate it.
As the sun started to set, we wrapped up the session with one last embrace against the backdrop of the coast. It was the perfect way to capture their whirlwind romance—effortless, full of joy, and simply meant to be.
Kelly and Jake’s story is a reminder that love doesn’t follow a timeline. Sometimes, when you know, you just know. And their engagement session? It was the perfect reflection of that—pure, spontaneous, and absolutely beautiful.
