I need some inspiration for an upcoming engagement shoot, finally have a couple that wants to get down and dirty in the ocean, so I'd love to see your favorite shots of couples that actually got into the ocean or lake or any other body of water. Thanks!!

I don't have links handy, but Garret Nudd had some killer shots of a couple in a pool a while back.....and Nathan Holritz's images of a recent couple on the beach would be more than inspirational. Maybe you can find them on their blogs or somebody else here will have the links.

Have fun!!

thanks Ginger, I'll start there!

James Rubios... love his stuff.

These are not the most amazing ever, but they are the one time I've ever been to the ocean with a couple lol...



Ok and I did some blog snatching so I hope people don't mind...

THE FOLLOWING IMAGES ARE NOT MINE...

Chris + Lynn have done a couple awesome ones I know of:









Hope that helps

Thanks Kadie, that's perfect! Just want to give the couple some ideas for what to wear, and what they're in for

By the way, have you checked out the Trotting Park yet?

I have quite a few in my engagement section http://www.ericjweddings.com/

It has kinda become our trademark

wow where do you live, the water is so blue! that's an awesome photo, love his expression!

This is in laguna beach, this cove is a rare one that ends up having some crazy clors.

Here is the next frame

Right back at you, lets just say Wisconsin is not necessarily the prime beach country, unless you do the Polar Plunge!

Check my post for my engagement shoot yesterday, with some "in the water" images... unfortunately the fog rolled in, the cold wind came up, and we weren't able to spend too much time in the water... we'll try again another time!!
