A Picture-Perfect Engagement:
Delaney and Gavin's Photoshoot at Morikami Japanese Museum

On October 3, 2025, the serene beauty of Morikami Japanese Museum and Gardens in Deerfield Beach became the magical backdrop for Delaney and Gavin’s engagement photoshoot. Nestled within lush landscapes, tranquil water features, and authentic Japanese architecture, the museum provided the perfect setting to celebrate their love and create memories that will last a lifetime. 

Capturing Love in the Heart of Nature:

Morikami is known for its pristine gardens, reflecting ponds, and walking trails that evoke the elegance of traditional Japanese landscaping. For Delaney and Gavin, the location represented more than just a beautiful setting—it was a serene and symbolic space to capture their love before they embark on their journey to marriage.

As we walked through the gardens, we discovered stunning locations at every turn. The vibrant greens of the Zen gardens contrasted beautifully with the soft, pastel hues of Delaney’s flowing dress, while Gavin looked dashing in his tailored attire. From the reflection of the couple in the koi-filled ponds to their silhouettes against the towering bamboo groves, the harmony of nature and romance was evident in every shot.

The Perfect Moment by the Waterfall:

One of the most enchanting moments was when Delaney and Gavin stood by the cascading waterfall—a hidden gem within the Morikami Gardens. The sound of water trickling down the rocks created a soothing ambiance as they shared a quiet moment, wrapped in each other’s arms. This spot became the centerpiece for some of the most heartfelt images, their emotions reflected in the serene surroundings.

A Unique Save-the-Date Video:

In addition to the photoshoot, we filmed a save-the-date video that perfectly captured their personalities and excitement for the future. The video starts with Delaney and Gavin walking hand-in-hand along a winding path through the bamboo forest, with sunlight filtering through the leaves. As they explore different areas of the gardens, they share sweet glances and playful moments, their chemistry undeniable.

The video concludes with the couple standing at the edge of the pond, a gentle breeze ruffling the water as they exchange a loving kiss. In the final frame, their wedding date, "10.03.24," elegantly appears across the screen, announcing their special day to friends and family in a way that feels timeless and personal.
