Kevin and Adriana have a once in a lifetime love. They started dating in the seventh grade, childhood sweethearts, that grew up side by side and have supported one another through all of life’s challenges. From middle school, to high school, to college… no one in the world made Adriana smile the way that Kevin did. And for Kevin, she has always been the light in his life. His best friend and soulmate. They fit together perfectly, with a genuine friendship and love that you don’t see everyday.
On Monday, I met these two sweethearts just outside of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. We started their engagement session in the historic little town of Lewes before making our way to one of my favorite spots… Cape Henlopen State Park! Everything about this shoot was incredible! And I can’t help but get a little emotional when talking about someone that I admire and respect as much as Adriana! I’ve known this gorgeous bride since our days together on the junior crew team and it has been such an incredible experience to photograph this beautifully joyous time in her life.
Congratulations Adriana & Kevin! I can’t wait to photograph your wedding next year!
