Sunrise Charleston Engagement Pics.

Dani and Phil are getting married next year June 5th in Charleston and Phil proposed in one of the most creative ways possible. He originally wanted to propose on the Zugspitze in Germany but he ended up proposing at Folly Beach in Charleston, SC. He put the ring in a box, attached to a shark tooth and buried it at the beach. Then he told Danielle they were going for a shark teeth hunt and guided her close to the area where the ring was hidden.

So, there was no question we had to start the engagement session at Morris Island Lighthouse at Folly Beach, where it all began. It was a beautiful sunrise – even a little bit chilly at first and a fresh ocean breeze, a welcome surprise in June.

Dani looked stunning in her white, flowing dress standing next to Phil — they made a beautiful couple. I loved that they were super natural and relaxed. They laughed, talked and giggled throughout the entire session.

Another thing I really loved is the fact that Phil is German. He even comes from Stuttgart, my home city and it made me so happy when he started talking to me in my mother language, with a slight Swabian accent. This makes me even more excited for the wedding next summer. I can’t wait for their international celebration and all the German traditions and festivities I sometimes miss.
