As soon as Brooke Michelle Photography noticed how happy her friend Abbey was with her new boyfriend, Brooke knew she had to capture their love for each other in a sunset sweetheart session! From playful poses to more sensual shots, Abbey and Alejandro’s sparks are flying in this golden hour Kent Island beach shoot. We love how the couple kept their attire more casual with denim cutoffs, neutral tones, and natural makeup and hair!

From the photographer: Abbey and I have been friends for quite some time now and have always been one of each others biggest supporters while growing our careers. I reached out to Abbey initially for just a fun lifestyle session with her new boyfriend. We then later added a hair & make-up team as well as Mandalynn Swim because we both love a good collaboration!

From the photographer: Abbey & Alejandro met at a skate park in Ephrata, PA. They didn’t talk much until Abbey later found him on Instagram and realized he was a graphic designer like her, so she reached out to him. In Abbey’s words, “bless Instagram DM’s.” A week or so after messaging each other they went out for pizza and immediately clicked.

From the photographer: This session was the first time Abbey & Hondro had been professionally photographed together and they really opened up and were 100% themselves in front of the lens. I think being comfortable with your photographer is key for sessions like these to gain the best possible outcome.
