Venturing Vows

A set of images that would not have been possible without planning around the tides. 🌊

These two wanted to go tide pooling so we planned the day around it. If you want epic tide pooling as part of your day, you need to be okay with picking your date around it.

That’s the thing with the coast, you can’t fight the tides. Some locations aren’t accessible at certain tides. The beach does not look the same at high tide as low. You can’t get as up close to the scenery if the tide is high. A beach will feel a lot more crowded at a high tide than a low.

One of the first things I do when folks tell me their date is flexible is send them a list of dates with ideal tides. At this point, I’d say 75% of my elopements are dates picked around tides.

I swear this is my ultimate photo secret. Make plans around the natural movements of nature instead of forcing them to work for your scenario.
