Derrick and Jamie // Kelly Park, Florida Styled Couples Session
I had never reached out to anyone to model for me through Instagram before, but wanted to find someone to model for me so badly while I was going to be in Florida! I searched through Instagram, scouring the pages of hashtags to find a couple that I thought would be open to the idea. I ran across Jamie’s IG page, and I’m so thankful I did!
I sent over a DM to Jamie, asking if she and Derrick would be available on crazy short notice, and they ACTUALLY WERE! We quickly figured out plans, and I headed out the next morning to head to Orlando!
I met with Jamie and Derrick at Kelly Park Rock Springs in Apopka, Florida (near Orlando) and we barely made it in before the park was at capacity. It made for some creativity in getting shots without a bunch of swimmers in the background (though we grabbed a few of those for fun!) but we got a ton of incredible shots, nevertheless!
Not only are they both adorable, but they also are crazy athletic and amazing at yoga (definitely check out their Instagram pages to see!) so when Derrick asked if we could get the “Dirty Dancing Shot”, I said YES! With the help of a local park ranger and lots of cheers from bystanders…we GOT THE SHOT!
I was so thankful that they were up for modeling, especially so last minute, and will definitely remember the fun we had at Kelly Park getting some incredible photos and lots of looks from passerby’s! ;)
