Recently I made a trip to Golden Gardens Park and Beach, with my camera, specifically to take advantage of the light of the full moon. I arrived at dusk, and stayed until about 10pm. It was a reasonably clear evening, not too cold, and many people had built bonfires along the beach. It was a cheerful, warming sight. From a distance, I spotted some sort of marquee of small, brilliant lights, and decided to check it out. When I drew closer, I met Asia Rau Vinton of
Sparrow Soirées Event Planning Boutique, and an assistant,
who were busy putting the finishing touches on surprise birthday party scene for a client who wanted to surprise his wife, with a party on the beach. The ambiance that they managed to create was lovely and intimate, despite taking place on a large, public beach, and I promptly offered to photograph the scene for them. Here are the results...
|
A small oasis on the beach, complete with birthday cake, candlelight, a blanket and soft pillows... |
|
The beach was quiet; with a soft breeze that made the candles flicker gently, and the soothing sounds of the water a few yards away... |
|
Lovely and festive. The crisp white tablecloth and colorful flowers won me over, not to mention the strings of tiny lights... |
|
Location, location, location....romantic, intimate, even a full moon to go with the candlelight. |
