Beach Engagement Photos | Seely & Bo

Hello and happy August! With the summer winding down, I was delighted to get to work on a very special engagement session in Atlantic Beach recently. This couple, Seely and Bo, are so much fun and so energetic! We had a wonderful, warm afternoon shoot that included a bike ride and some beers. I really wanted the session to reflect Seely and Bo’s personalities and what they love to do most. We had such a great time!
These two met in 2015 at a concert in Raleigh, but Seely had actually known Bo’s brother and sister-in-law for some time before that, and she adored them! A month later, they had their first date, and then their second, and their third…all at concerts! 🙂 Their mutual love of music was perfectly reflected in Bo’s proposal. He’s a guitarist, and one night he called Seely to come and inspect a “new” amp that he’d had delivered (actually it was his old amp all wrapped up in a box). When Seely peered inside, she saw a balloon in the shape of a diamond ring attached to the amp…but didn’t quite put things together until Bo rushed in and got down on one knee! That night, they went to dinner and then Bo surprised Seely yet again with a visit from her entire family…including her parents’ dog. So sweet!
The weekend of our session, Bo’s family was spending time at their beach house, so we even got to do a few group photos at the end. This is such a sweet and fun family! What a treat to be in their midst, helping Bo and Seely make some memories to last a lifetime. I wish them the best and hope you enjoy these photos from their Atlantic beach engagement session. I can’t wait for their big day!

Bo…literally sweeping Seely off her feet!!
