The photographer behind one of my all-time fave e-sessions, Ilene Squires, recently shared pics of another nearlywed couple with Triple B. While this session is quite different from her aforementioned Harlem-themed shoot and our last camping e-session feature, it certainly evokes just as much love and happiness. What I enjoy most about Tracey and Rashim’s images are the carefree attitude they display. There’s not a lot of makeup and styling, the poses are pretty basic but their connection to each other is palpable.

Tracey and Rashim met in New York City’s Flatiron District where Tracey used to work while she was crossing the street on her way home. This duo is set to wed in Curacao in April 2012. According to Ilene, their chance meeting and destination wedding were inspiration for the urban and nautical themes in the photos featured below. The pair met up with Ilene at Riverside Park in Manhattan and hit the mall along the Hudson River taking advantage of the last days of summer. Good stuff; get inspired!
