Erica and Mike’s engagement pictures in The Outer Banks of North Carolina (OBX) was, without a doubt, one of our favorite sessions of the year!  Why you ask?  Well, it’s no secret: we love working with incredible couples, we love dogs, and we love the beach.  Combine them together and you’ve got a happy Jayson and Rachael on your hands!

When we first talked to Erica and Mike, we were so excited to learn that their nuptials would be in The Outer Banks… just our favorite vacation spot ever (thanks Mom and Dad!).  We also discussed their ideas and vision for their engagement pictures.  What developed is perhaps one of the coolest engagement sessions we’ve shot to date.

We’re truly honored to be working with this incredible couple and we’re completely stoked to be sharing their incredible OBX engagement session with you today.

Like us, Mike remembers visiting The Outer Banks as a child with his parents.  Those magical summers that never seem to end, our only cares in the world being sun burn and those pesky biting flies!  Together, Erica and Mike knew the beaches of OBX would be the perfect location for their engagement pictures and their upcoming wedding.

The idea for Erica and Mike’s “Save The Date” was inspired by a “paint fight” they shared while on their first trip to the mountains together.  We loved the idea and think the results speak for themselves.  Please note that the beach was not damaged or polluted during the session.  We used non-toxic, biodegradable paint and promptly cleaned the sand at the conclusion of the fight.

Thanks for visiting us today!
