Aaron and Kara met through mutual friends while going to college in Wisconsin. It wasn’t until months later, and many invitations from Aaron, that the first date finally happened. The wait was worth it, and this couple of nearly a decade are ready for the next big step!

Aaron decided to book a yacht for an amazing New Year’s Eve bash, and enlisted Kara’s help with planning the party. Little did she know, she was helping to plan her own engagement celebration. At sunset Aaron took Kara to the bow of the boat, got down on one knee, and popped the question. They spent the rest of the evening with their friends, and toasting their happiness.

Their engagement session in Sarasota was laid-back and romantic. These native Northerners were quite at home in their southern surroundings. The Florida fall day was warm, and the ocean breeze soft and pleasant. Coco, their friendly English Bulldog, was great company too! This really was the perfect day to be at the beach and get some great photos of these lovebirds.

I really enjoyed this fun shoot, and I can’t wait for the wedding!
