Charleston South Carolina Destination Engagement Session

When I first connected with Lesley & Curtis, they mentioned their love for travel and the potential of aligning one of their upcoming destinations with photos of their time being engaged. Lesley is a classic romantic and is sentimentally inclined so Charleston seemed like the perfect destination to explore together.

Summertime Chicago Sailboat Session

It was a warm summer day as Whitney and Hunter Mac stepped onto the deck of the sailboat. With a bottle of Veuve Clicquot in hand, they were ready to toast an afternoon on Lake Michigan. The captain showed them the most beautiful view of the Chicago skyline on their sail.

Golden Hour Brooklyn Bridge & Dumbo Engagement Session

We made our way to the Brooklyn Bridge at sunrise and the golden light poured across this iconic bridge being outshone only by these two. Being able to be there first thing in the morning meant we were there before the city was awake and we had the walkway to ourselves.
