Golden Hour Engagement Session at Philippe Park | Maria + Luis
There’s something truly magical about golden hour in Florida. The soft, dreamy light that wraps everything in warmth and romance. On September 24th, Maria and Luis met at Philippe Park in Safety Harbor for their engagement session, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Nestled beneath the towering oaks and with Tampa Bay as their backdrop, the couple’s love for one another radiated through every frame.
Maria and Luis share a connection that feels effortless and full of joy. From the way they laugh together to the quiet, stolen glances between poses, it’s clear they’ve found something special. The session unfolded with ease, as the park’s winding trails, historic stone walls, and serene waterfront provided the perfect canvas for their story.
Their engagement began with an unforgettable proposal at Bok Tower Gardens — a beautifully curated moment in a setting as romantic as their journey. That same sense of thoughtful intention and timeless beauty carried through into their engagement session.
With their wedding date set for February 21st at The Manor on Lake Juliana, their story is just beginning. As they prepare to step into the next chapter of their lives together, this golden hour session will serve as a beautiful reminder of the love and anticipation leading up to their big day.
