Why Choose Puerto Rico for Your Engagement Photos
Puerto Rico is a playground of stunning locations — from its charming colonial towns and lush rainforests to pristine beaches and dramatic fortresses. With year-round tropical weather and easy access from the U.S., it's an ideal choice for couples seeking breathtaking engagement photos. Whether you're planning a getaway or adding an engagement session to your vacation, Puerto Rico promises unforgettable memories.
Cally & Greg's Engagement Getaway Story
Cally and Greg's love story is one of dedication and excitement. Navigating a long-distance relationship, they planned a special vacation to reunite in Puerto Rico — their first time seeing each other since getting engaged.
Wanting to commemorate this milestone, they chose to capture their Puerto Rico engagement photos in the heart of Old San Juan.
Engagement Session Photos at Villa Herencia Hotel
A boutique hotel in the historic district of Old San Juan, Villa Herencia Hotel set the stage for the beginning of their session.
With its rustic charm and romantic ambiance, the hotel provided an intimate backdrop for those first sweet moments.
The quiet courtyards and textured walls brought an old-world elegance to their photos, creating an atmosphere that felt both cozy and cinematic.
Exploring Old San Juan: A Photo Lover's Dream
Old San Juan is a visual feast, filled with colorful facades, cobblestone streets, and vibrant culture. For Cally and Greg, every corner turned into a photo opportunity. We strolled along Paseo La Princesa, paused by the iconic La Puerta de San Juan, and wandered through the enchanting Caleta de San Juan. Tucked-away alleys and sun-dappled streets gave us a mix of candid and posed moments, capturing the essence of their love story.
Sunset Romance at El Morro Fortress
As golden hour approached, we made our way to El Morro Fortress. This UNESCO World Heritage site is legendary for its breathtaking views, especially as the sun dips toward the horizon. The warm glow bathed Cally and Greg in a romantic light, producing some of the most magical images of the day. The ocean breeze, historic architecture, and pastel skies created an unforgettable scene for their Puerto Rico engagement photos.
It was a delight sharing the afternoon with such an amazingly cute and madly-in-love couple. Congratulations on your engagement, and I wish you a lifetime of blessings together.
