Most of my beach proposal sessions end about 15 minutes after sunset. But, for this couple, it started about 15 minutes after sunset. They were driving down to Key West from Miami and got caught in traffic. That's not that uncommon on a mostly two lane highway that's over 100 miles long with an average speed of just 45 mph. What is uncommon is I'm one of just a couple of Key West photographers that has multiple flash units I bring to every session. So even after it gets too dark for natural light photography and everyone has gone home, I can start a session. Running a little late? Nothing to worry about.

They did and their photos show it.
