Jamestown + Beavertail State Park Engagement Session | Renée + Tanner - wedding photographer in CT

Moody blue hour engagement photos 🌓

I could not love it more than when my couples want to get adventurous and get a fresh take on a pretty common location. Renée and Tanner did this so perfectly with their moody blue hour engagement session at Beavertail State Park in Jamestown, Rhode Island!

We timed their session for just before sunset so we could chase that dreamy, soft blue hour light—and it was SO worth it. These two have such an easy, magnetic love. The way Tanner looks at Renée? Ugh. Melt. It felt like I was third-wheeling in the most magical way.

Their outfits were absolute perfection. Renée wore this effortlessly romantic dress that moved so beautifully in the breeze, and Tanner kept it classic and cool. They were totally down for getting in the water (my faveeee!) and let me tell you—those barefoot-in-the-ocean shots at dusk are some of my favorites EVER. The light, the colors, the vibe—it felt like a vintage film reel brought to life.

And don’t even get me started on the lanterns. Yep, they used actual lanterns for some cozy, moody moonlit shots and it was chef’s kiss. There’s something about capturing love in that soft, post-sunset glow that just hits different—like you’re watching the world slow down around them.

If you’re dreaming of engagement photos that feel like art—full of emotion, movement, and a little magic—Beavertail is one of my favorite spots to create something truly one-of-a-kind. Whether it’s a golden hour glow or moody coastal blues, I’m always here for the couples who want to do something a little unexpected.
