I met Michael and Amanda just before Christmas at American Tobacco Campus in Durham, North Carolina for their Engagement Session!! So exciting!! I remember the first time I met Amanda at Starbucks – she radiated with joy and was truly glowing. Anyone would know she was ecstatic to be engaged to her best friend and to be planning her dream wedding!! I knew we would get along just fine and was thrilled when she emailed me to officially book for her wedding this July! I wasn’t surprised when I met Michael for their engagement shoot, he was just as joyful and they were too much fun! He might love his sweet pup a little more than Amanda but overall, I think he is alright ;). Couples always ask if I mind if they bring their dog, aka first born, with them to their shoot. Of course not! I understand, they’re family!! It’s best to do those photos first and then kick them out so we can get extra cuddly and romantic for the rest of your e-shoot! The couple that is, I will not be getting cuddly with y’all promise! haha.
Tobacco Road (American Tobacco Campus) is always a fun location for engagement sessions. Although, at Christmas time we had to avoid some of the many wreaths and stretches of garland!! It was a beautiful and pretty warm day for a December engagement session but y’all probably could’ve guessed that by now – the odds were in your favor. I’m personally thankful for some colder weather these days. I like a little taste of winter – but that’s about it:)! Talk to me in February and I’m ready for Spring!
I hope you enjoy these cheerful, romantic photos on this gloomy FriYAY!!!
