We had a great time photographing Troy and Glynnis at Sandy Hook State Park in New Jersey. Sandy Hook has all kinds of interesting buildings and beautiful scenery, given that it is the home of an abandoned military base called Fort Hancock as well as some beautiful beaches. There are all kinds of abandoned military bunkers and mortar batteries, a light house, and some other interesting things. We looove shooting at Sandy Hook because there is so much great scenery and variety all across the park. Troy and Glynnis were a ton of fun and despite the ridiculous mosquitoes we got some fantastic photos of them goofing off together! My favorite shot of the day. Normally it’s quite difficult to take photos in New Jersey on an ocean beach with a sunset in the background because the sun sets in the west, but Sandy Hook is a peninsula that runs north and south, so the western beaches are perfect for sunset photos! A long time ago, before I got into wedding photography my favorite type of photography was long exposure and night photography. I’ve wanted to take this photo at Sandy Hook for a long time, so I was FINALLY able to put some of that long exposure photography knowledge to use with this shot. I had to get a little wet in order to take it though!
Taylor looks pretty epic here. Awesome engagement session! We also got to photograph their awesome wedding at The Madison Hotel Conservatory this past weekend, so the crazy PhotoBooth photos from that will be up soon!
