Wanting a romantic, unique engagement session that combines stunning sunsets, Old Florida charm, and breathtaking riverside views? Let’s work together and create the engagement session you’ve been dreaming of.
Hi, we’re The Deans Photography! We’re Central Florida’s Wedding and Family Photographer husband and wife duo, passionate about creating unforgettable moments. We wanted to share our recent engagement session we captured on the beautiful St. Johns River in Cocoa, Florida. Here’s a peek into this fun, adventurous, and romantic experience!
Setting the Scene: Cocoa, Florida
Cocoa, located on the banks of the Indian River Lagoon in East Central Florida, offers a quaint, Old Florida vibe that’s perfect for couples who want a relaxed yet intimate setting. Known for its rich history and natural beauty, this charming town feels like stepping back in time, offering a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
For this engagement session, we took a boat ride along the river, with the sunset casting a warm, golden glow across the water and creating a magical atmosphere that was nothing short of perfect.
A Sunset Cruise with a View
As the sun began to set, we cruised down the St. Johns River, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of nature. The soft, warm light from the setting sun made for some of the most stunning engagement photos we’ve ever captured. The golden hues reflecting off the water added a touch of romance to every frame.
Being out on the water, is one of our most favorite backdrops for a session. It offers a serene and intimate environment for our couple, allowing them to relax, enjoy each other’s company, and fully embrace the moment. There’s something so special about the way a sunset on the river can bring out the natural chemistry between two people.








Old Florida Charm in Every Frame
The Old Florida charm added another layer of magic to this engagement session. Central Florida offers quite an array of natural beauty. This classic Florida backdrop perfectly complemented our couple’s love story, creating timeless, beautiful images that they will cherish forever.
We captured candid moments of laughter, stolen glances, and gentle touches, all set against the backdrop of Cocoa’s scenic beauty. Every frame told a story of love, adventure, and the promise of forever.
