I’ve had the honor of photographing so many Bates couples over the past four years and it makes my heart so happy to add another Bates couple to the LDP family! (See the links below of other LDP Bates couples!) And these two Bates College sweethearts are the cutest! I had such a blast at their sunrise engagement session at Duxbury Beach this past Fall and am just a little bit obsessed with all of these photos.

Sunrise is my absolute favorite time of day for taking photos so anytime a couple is up for that, I’m all in! The light is so beautiful and soft, you always have the whole place to yourself, and then you still have the rest of the day ahead of you. Kelsey and Mark were such troopers getting up so early for their shoot and because it was in the fall, sunrise was a bit chilly. But how cute is Kelsey wearing Mark’s suit jacket to stay warm?! 

Kelsey and Mark are getting married THIS SATURDAY so I figured this is the perfect time to share their engagement session! I am beyond excited to capture their love all over again in just a few days in what I know will be the most intimate, beautiful, and fun backyard wedding in Duxbury. Plus I’m excited to see so many Batesies on the dance floor! In the meantime, here are all of my favorites from their sunrise engagement session this past fall at one of the prettiest beaches in New England!
