Engagement photos that don't feel like an engagement session.
One of my favorite things about this session is that it never felt staged. I help foster an atmosphere for couples to connect and be present. Throughout their time together, they laughed and shared stories, danced and swayed together, and walked hand in hand while taking in the city around them. It was intentional, and it was 100% them.
