Downtown Wilmington Engagement Photos

Downtown Wilmington Engagement Photos

I love when my couples have a vision. Rafaela and Zander wanted to do engagement photos in downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. They’ve got some serious spunk, and I had way too much fun hanging out with them. Is it really a good time if there’s no dancing or thumb wars? You better believe they brought all that and more on their couple session.

Sunset with a view of Downtown

For this downtown Wilmington, engagement shoot, we hit up the parking garage located on the corner of 2nd street and Princess Street. It’s the perfect spot downtown because you get this beautiful sunset view of the city, and we weren’t disappointed. I have no doubt that these two could have fun anywhere. We turned on some tunes and ran around like we were kids again. As the sun set, we slowed things down a bit and melted into the moment. The light settled onto the city, and we all sat for a moment enjoying our town in a new way. After that moment, they snapped back to their funky selves and brought their A-game for thumb wars.

The best way to spend a fall evening is exploring new places in your own city, whether that means a new brewery, an abandoned building, or a rooftop. Above all, never give up that sense of adventure. All you need is your favorite person and a few layers to snuggle up in. Zander and Rafaela have a special bond to Downtown Wilmington, which made it the perfect spot for a couple session. It’s where they went to college (go UNC Wilmington!) and built a life with friends who support them. We had so much fun on this little parking deck rooftop, and they got to spend a gorgeous evening just enjoying each other and having the time of their lives!
