First, I learned that Elyse has an amazing model face. Secondly, I learned that she has a 10 year old BUNNY and last but not least, I learned that Bryan can so easily make Elyse laugh at any given moment!! This made their session a BREEZE! Speaking of breeze, it was the most perfect night! I wish ALL engagement sessions could take place in April because the weather has been amazing and the light couldn’t have been more spectacular!!
We headed over to the fountain that was a perfect contrast against Elyse’s skirt and Bryan’s navy suit. Then we made a quick loop around the lower garden while the security guard was making the announcement that Maymont was closing!! I hate that they close the park right at the BEST time to shoot! However, we had already taken so many gorgeous portraits and so it was time to head over to Byrd Park for their second outfit!!
I don’t know what I love more about this shoot…. the tulle skirt or the glowy light!?! Together they made one killer combination!! I can’t wait for you to meet these two! Enjoy some of my FAVORITES!!


How do I end up with such photogenic couples?! I can’t wait for the wedding!!!!



I’m a sucker for fun compositions and so this image is definitely a favorite!

I love these two images! We were so thankful for this amazing glow!



That LIGHT!
