Their session: Long Beach Island, NJ

Wowwww, ok, this foggy Long Beach Island Puppy Couples Session was the real deal! Jesse and Tyler are two beach-loving surfers and capturing their love for the water was so incredible. AND they brought along possibly the world’s CUTEST puppy(!!!!), Tucker, who trailed along in the sweetest way. It was just adorable to watch the puppy play in the sand and connect with his new family. It’s definitely safe to say this will be one of many, many beach visits for this little cutie!

This session was a gift to the couple from Jesse’s sister, Kirsten! A session is such an incredible gift that will give Jesse and Tyler memories for years to come. And some great shots to display and cherish in their home!!!

Their love story

Jesse and Tyler met online and had their first date on Long Beach Island. When Jesse showed up at Tyler’s house before the date, Tyler remembers being extra nervous once he saw how gorgeous she was! They had dinner together (ordering the same meal!) and talked effortlessly. Tyler says it was one of those rare meetings where you just feel like you’ve known the person forever!

He continues, “Every day I got to spend with her I fell in love with her more and more. I saw myself wanting everything with her, marriage, a home, kids and a dog… every day I wake up I know how lucky I truly am to have her in my life. She is my soulmate and I love her endlessly and would do anything to make her happy.” How sweet is that?! They’ve crossed “a home” off that list and right before this shoot, they added a sweet puppy to their family!

Jesse and Tyler continue to share their date nights on Long Beach Island. They love exploring the restaurants for dinner and going out for ice cream after! Supporting small businesses on the island is a big part of their lives that’s extra meaningful in a small beach town like LBI!

Jesse and Tyler,

It was truly such a joy to capture these moments with you and your adorable new puppy who I literally cannot get over!!! Your connection to each other and the water is so apparent and amazing to watch. Thank you for having no fear with this session – it was a pleasure getting to know you both during our time together. I hope you’ll have these memories displayed in your home together for years to come. I wish you both, and sweet little Tucker, the world!!!
