Ben and Nicole's Washington Oaks Gardens Couples Session
Ben and Nicole's session at Washington Oaks Gardens State Park did not go quite the way we planned. Heavy rain moved in while we were shooting, and for a little while it looked like we might get completely rained out. I told them I had hope it would pass and I'm glad we stuck it out!
Washington Oaks Gardens State Park works well for couples photography in Palm Coast and Flagler County. The gardens and old oak canopy give us different backgrounds without having to travel between locations. On this evening, the rain softened the light and brought out more color in everything around us.
If you are looking for couples photography in Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, or elsewhere in Flagler County, Washington Oaks is a good option when you want something different from a typical beach session. Ben and Nicole's photos also proved that a little rain does not have to end the evening.
