Kara and Kyle’s St Thomas Engagement session at Botany Bay

Kyle and Kara showed up to their engagement session with all the effortless “it couple” energy. St. Thomas already sets the stage with its dreamy sunsets and island vibes, but these two didn’t need much—just each other and a little golden light to make magic happen.
They were total naturals in front of the camera—laughing nonstop, sneaking little looks like no one else existed, and moving together like they’ve been in sync forever. The salty breeze and waves just added to it, but honestly, Kyle and Kara could’ve been anywhere and still lit up the whole space. That’s the kind of love that doesn’t need props or big moments—it just is.
What I loved most about their session was how unfiltered it felt. No stiff poses, no “pretend this is romantic” energy—just two people being themselves and letting their connection lead. It’s the kind of love that feels grounding but also makes you want to dance barefoot on the beach. Photographing that on St. Thomas? Pure magic.
