Couples Photo Session in Somerset NJ | NJ Photographer
On a recent summer evening, I met Bryce and Talia for a lovely couples photo session in Somerset, NJ.
Bryce and Talia are actually from Utah! Utah is a little different from New Jersey.
So, they wanted a location that was abundant in greenery and nature.
I guess this is why they call New Jersey the Garden State!
I always offer my clients a couple of location options based on their vision for the shoot.
In the end, Colonial Park and the D & R Canal was the perfect location for them!
Before reaching the D & R Canal, I posed the two by some nearby structures. These small buildings are cute and quaint, and I tucked them in for some intimate pictures.
By the way, these aren’t their engagement photos. But since they are living so far apart right now, they wanted to get together and do something special!
What I loved most about Bryce and Talia was how goofy and open they were. Even though we got some lovely posed shots of them, I also prompted them to try some fun ideas! For example, I asked Bryce to give Talia a piggyback ride.
The final results were adorable candid shots of Bryce pretending to buck Talia off!
Afterward, we made our way to a bridge that connects Colonial Park and the D & R Canal. Here, you’ll find some people walking and biking, enjoying the day.
However, it wasn’t very crowded and we still had plenty of space to get some wide-open shots.
Finally, I asked if they were open to laying down on the grass for some overhead shots. I loved how they turned out!
Laying down on the grass is not for everybody, but I love when my clients are adventurous and open-minded! It can yield in some special and unique portraits.
I’m thankful they trusted me to capture them in their essence.
It was very endearing to see their relationship.
Plus, now they have the cutest shots of themselves smushing their faces and looking at each other in excitement!
If you’re looking to make special memories with your partner-in-crime, fiance, S.O., best friend – give me a shout!
