Cristy & Matthew | Headlands Beach Engagement Photos | Mentor, Ohio


The beauty of Headlands Beach engagement photos at this time of year and the color of the foliage around Headland Dunes State Nature Preserve was absolutely stunning, and Matthew and Cristy’s engagement session was nothing short of magical. It was an unforgettable experience, and one we’ll be talking about for awhile.
Between the location, the light, the photos, the laughter, the boardwalk and the fox, I can’t honestly say which was my favorite. Take a look for yourself and you decide.

A Trip to Mentor Headlands Beach
Headland Dunes State Nature Preserve
It was an absolutely gorgeous day when we were in Mentor, and the light was perfect. As we made our way towards Lake Erie through the Headland Dunes State Nature Preserve, we stopped to take some photos in the stunning grass with the lake and the sun at Matt and Cristy’s backs.
We were surprised to be greeted by a playful little fox, and my wife Samantha was quick on the draw and was able to get a stunning shot of our furry and adorable little engagement session crasher.

Lighthouse Views
Headlands Beach State Park and Headland Dunes State Nature Preserve offer some of the most unique views along Lake Erie, and we took full advantage of the break wall overlooking the lighthouse in the distance.

The Boardwalk
New to the area is the Mentor Headlands Boardwalk, and we took full advantage of it and the amazing views and lines it provides. The sky and the clouds were breathtaking and the colors were just perfect.

Sand Dunes at Sunset
To finish out the night, we strolled along the beach and walked amongst the dunes to capture some really cool shots of Matt and Cristy as the sun was almost gone. We even managed to grab a couple after the sun had completely set.
