Ariel & Vincent Engagement Session at South Pointe Park & Beach

I’m so excited to share this gorgeous engagement shoot with all of you. I would like to introduce you to Ariel and Vincent. On a recent trip to Miami (from NYC), they got in touch with me to do their engagement photos and I was delighted. But first, a little bit about the happy couple! When Ariel went back to school to obtain her administrative degree, it was Vincent who taught the first foundational course. After months and months passing, they kept in touch until one day when she revealed to him that she had a "crush" on him. They went on our first date and the rest is history. Vincent proposed over the Christmas Holiday break, when Ariel was staying with him in Long Island for the week. On December 21st, when they went to grab some dinner at a place called First and South and he asked her to check on the dogs, using the Furbo (Dog cam) because he thought he forgot to leave a light on for them. When she turned on the app, "MARRY ME" lit up the screen. Vincent had purchased light up letters and carefully placed them in front of the camera, arranging this little perfect moment. And that brings us to today. When I asked each of them to tell me about the other, their responses were beautiful. Ariel said that Vincent is the best human ever. Vincent said that Ariel is the most beautiful woman ever- Vincent. These two are just made for each other. They both love to write and they have both written each other tons of poems back and forth. Ariel even began a blog to keep them together. They hope to one day publish a book of them.

For their engagement photos we went to the beautiful South Pointe Park. One of my favourite locations for engagement photoshoots in MIami. And as you can see from the photos it was a fantastic shoot. So many dreamy photos I honestly cannot pick just one favorite. The chemistry these two have really shone across all the pictures. Thank you Ariel and Vincent for such a fun shoot! And thank you for choosing me to capture this beautiful chapter in your love story. For more pics and sneak peeks of my work don’t forget to head over to my instagram as well! @cortiellaphotography
