On the drive over to shoot Mike and Kim’s beach engagement session the weather looked as if it had other plans for us.  Dark and stormy almost all the way to the bridge, but as we pulled into Lavallette NJ, the skies cleared a little, leaving just enough cloud to add some dramatic effect. Thanks clouds!  Meeting at their charming weekend getaway, I noticed two bikes parked next to the house.  Cool couple + Cool beach bikes =  awesome beach engagement photos.  Simple math So, Mike & Kim set off on their beach bikes, and we followed them over a few blocks, so we could have some dunes and a small jetty to work with.  The location was perfect. With the weather just slightly on the cool side, the beach was empty, leaving us plenty of room to work. With the sun setting quickly, Mike & Kim again speed off on their bikes with us in tow for the bayside of Lavallette.  The sunset could not have been more perfect…lots of clouds and color…This coupled with Mike and Kim’s fun & energetic personalities was the perfect ending to an awesome (there ya’ go, Mike!) beach engagement session.

Mike and Kim are getting married this coming December at St Mary’s church in Pompton Lakes with the reception to follow at Florentine Gardens in Rivervale, NJ.
