Sunrise Surf Couples Session with Steve & Aisha

Adventurous, Ethereal, and Full of Love

There’s something so magical about a sunrise photoshoot, especially when it involves a couple like Steve and Aisha, whose love for each other radiates in every moment. Our 90-minute session started just as the sun was rising, casting a soft, dreamy light across the beach. It was the perfect backdrop for a session that was as adventurous as it was intimate.

Steve and Aisha have a deep love for surfing, so it felt natural to bring Aisha’s custom-made surfboard along as a prop. The session kicked off with them running along the shore, surfboard in hand, the early morning light giving everything an ethereal glow. They played, laughed, and snuggled up on the sand, completely in sync with one another and their surroundings. The energy between them was so playful and effortless—exactly what I aim to capture in a lifestyle session like this.

As the sun rose higher, we transitioned to the water, and that’s when the fun really began. Steve and Aisha splashed around in the waves, completely letting loose and enjoying every second. It was adventurous, playful, and full of the kind of joy that only comes from being with someone you love. The water added a layer of storytelling to their session—illustrating their shared passion for surfing and their adventurous spirits.

This session was the perfect mix of adventure and intimacy, with the beach and ocean serving as a breathtaking, natural backdrop. I’m so grateful to have captured these moments for them. Sessions like this remind me how important it is to slow down, be present, and truly capture the unique story of each couple I work with.

Here’s what Aisha had to say about their experience:

"Chelsea is not only a talented photographer but she’s also such a wonderful human being. She’s so chill, fun, and down to earth. She made my husband and I really comfortable during our couples shoot so we were able to get more natural photos. We love each one of them. Thank you, Chelsea!!"
