The name is no coincidence. Honeymoon Island State Park in Tampa feels like a tropical pre-wedding escape!
With white sand beaches that stretch on endlessly for miles and blue skies that meet the sparkling sea, it’s pretty much a given: your Tampa engagement photography will be downright dreamy.
Have fun with this beachy scene - Gather some shells, splash in the warm Gulf waters, reel in an enviable catch and build or sandcastle together. Or, venture away from the shore deeper into nature where you’ll find osprey nests, a wide variety of shorebirds and one of the few remaining pine forests in South Florida. A number of rustic hiking trails will lead you to the raw beauty of the hidden elements waiting to be discovered.
Work with your Tampa engagement photographer to time your shoot around golden hour. The setting sun will bathe every shot in a warm, golden glow. At Honeymoon Island State Park, this light looks especially magical reflecting off the water or peeking through the trees and native grasses.
Take the name literally and your Tampa engagement photography session will feel like a honeymoon-dream come true.
