Largs Bay Engagement Shoot – Chelsea & Stephen
On a radiant afternoon, Largs Bay was the picturesque setting for Chelsea and Stephen’s engagement shoot. The charm of Adelaide’s coastal beauty shone brightly, providing the perfect backdrop. Nestled in this serene locale, the couple’s love story added a magical touch to the already stunning beachscape. The tranquility of Largs Bay, known for its sparkling waters and gentle breezes, created an atmosphere of romance and excitement.
The shoot began with a casual stroll along the beach, with the couple’s chemistry lighting up every frame. As an Adelaide photographer, capturing love in such a blissful setting is always a joy. The sand dunes, with their unique shapes and textures, offered a diverse palette for our photo session. They provided not just a beautiful background but also a playful element as Chelsea and Stephen laughed and danced among the dunes.
Largs Bay Engagement Shoot
Diversity was key in this engagement shoot. The Largs Bay foreshore, with its variety of landscapes, was like a treasure chest of photo opportunities. We explored under the jetty, a spot where the light created a mesmerizing effect, casting beautiful patterns. The small ponds near the sand dunes added a touch of whimsy to some of the shots, reflecting the joy and love of the couple.
Encouraging Chelsea and Stephen to dip their toes into the water brought an element of fun and spontaneity to the shoot. This playful moment was a highlight, reminding me of a recent ‘wreck the dress‘ shoot that had a similar spirit of adventure and joy. Chelsea’s enthusiasm about one of the photos from that session sparked the idea to incorporate the water into their engagement shoot, adding a unique and memorable element to their special day.

As the sun began to set, the sky transformed into a canvas of warm oranges, pinks, and purples, a perfect moment for an engagement shoot at Largs Bay. The sunset provided a natural, romantic lighting that enhanced the intimacy of Chelsea and Stephen’s photos. We captured silhouettes against the setting sun, creating timeless images that they would cherish forever.
This part of the shoot was magical, with the calmness of the sea and the fading light creating a dream-like quality. The sunset at Largs Bay is truly a spectacle, and as a photographer, it’s always a delight to use this natural wonder as a backdrop. The golden hour light enveloped the couple in a soft, warm glow, making every photo look like a scene from a romantic film.
Chelsea and Stephen’s Largs Bay engagement shoot was a wonderful amalgamation of natural beauty, love, and joy. The variety of settings – from sand dunes to the jetty, and the playful moments in the water – all under the spectacular Adelaide sunset, made this shoot uniquely beautiful. As a photographer, capturing these moments was not just about creating stunning images, but also about encapsulating the essence of their love story in the heart of Adelaide’s breathtaking scenery.
