Field + Emily Engagement | Niceville Photographer

It’s been a long time coming for this session! We have been dreaming up a sailboat session for months now, and we finally found one! Through many random connections, Brian Gwinnup from Freedom Boat Club offered to take us out with him and his wife on their sailboat! We drove over to the Bluewater Bay Marina to meet them. With the weather showing thunderstorms all day long, we were slightly worried, but with the way Florida weather works, we knew the possibility of the forecast changing was pretty high. And…as you see in these images…Florida proved itself once again. The night was BEAUTIFUL. The wind coming off of the boat’s waves + the sunset + two people madly in love = an incredible engagement session.

We love, love, LOVE these two so much. We all go to church together, so it is even more special we were able to photograph them. Emily is an interior designer & project manager with Urban Grace Interiors. Field operates a high-quality beach service company with Live Well 30a. So naturally, they are well-put together and tan. 🙂  Their love story is one of those ones you see in a movie. You know, the kind where it seems too-good-to-be-true? Field tells everyone that Emily picked him up in a Karaoke bar (haha!), but I think maybe Emily fell head-over-heels for that man-bun he had at the time. 😉 Soon after they began dating, Field started really thinking about their future together. Though it seems quick, when you know, you know! And Field knew she was his girl. 🙂 In just 5 short months, they will be even more in love and married!

It was so fun teaming up with Brenna Kneiss of BrennaBeauty! She did Emily’s hair and makeup, and it turned out beautiful as always! She is also a local photographer in the area. She’s got talent for days!

Emily + Field, we love you both so much!  We hope you love these images as much as we do!! It was way too difficult choosing which ones to post in this blog, so we chose way more than usual! 🙂
