How I Structure Engagement Sessions

Scheduling an engagement session is a great way to capture the love and excitement between you and your partner leading up to your wedding day. When you schedule your engagement session with me, we're not just going to stand around, striking poses for an hour. We're going to have some fun! I structure my engagement sessions much like adventure sessions. We're going to get out and explore a beautiful spot with an activity of your choice. It will be an experience you share together - not just for the photos, but for the memories too!

Vermont Engagement Session at Warren Falls

Take a look at Chris and Allie's Vermont engagement session. They were in town for the week, traveling in from Denver, CO. They had a packed schedule with bridal showers, a friend’s wedding, family outings, and a venue visit at The Inn at Round Barn Farm. But we were able to squeeze in a session before they traveled back home. So we set up a day to tour the Farm so they could share their vision with me and followed it with an adventure engagement session at Warren Falls.

Luckily, the rain that was forecasted was only a sprinkle and not a complete downpour so we decided to stick to the original plan and stay outside. Allie was such a trooper for remaining sleeveless for the majority of the engagement session (and in 45* weather)! We played in a field with Sugarbush off in the distance - the very spot that Chris popped the question, on an equally rainy day! We then took the fun to Warren Falls, a place that Chris and Allie used to frequent in the summers before moving to Colorado.
