Today’s couple is super sweet – the sort that really take their time to get to know you . . .

. . . even a tandem bicycle making a cameo for this couple’s classic, romantic evening. We love how warm and joyful Andrew and Jenna are with each other – what a joy to get to capture these precious moments with them!

Today’s session is extra special — Back in my Art Teacher days, Chelsea and I taught next door to each other! We had each others backs, which makes a world of difference in that sort of environment! She put up with my art class playing loud music regularly, as well as graciously enduring the paint smell that probably drifted through those cinder block walls into her classroom ;-). It was such a pleasure to then get to photograph Chelsea & Jason on this lovely Autumn day!

The weather on the day of this engagement shoot was blustery, but that just made shooting these two all the more cosy! I loved that they got to interact with the animals on the farm at Belle Meadows, and incorporate those shots in the session. Overall, the day had an English-countryside-esque outcome that we love, with all the brusque Winter character of the barren woods contrasting the warm familiarity of a farm house + delicately strung lights. Cosy cuddles on hay bales just add to the fun. What more could you want for a Autumn/Winter Engagement?

Harper and Matt were such a sweet couple to photograph! Their love for each other is so obvious, which makes my job as photographer that much easier.

I love the concept of this sweet engagement session: a record store love story. It’s so full of personality! It was fun as a photographer to get to incorporate Christine + DJ’s knowledge of music, especially when juxtaposed with the softer, sweeter outdoor images later in the session . . .
