Julie and James’ sweetly innocent engagement shoot in the woods and meadows has us swooning! The soft afternoon light shining on swaying yellow wildflowers illuminates Julie and James so these images from Clary Photo are almost ethereal. Of course, fab photography and a beautiful couple make it all look so easy!

Picture the most perfect afternoon hike with your love: Is it complete with cuddling beneath the trees, wading in a babbling brook and then resting with a glass of wine and a friendly game of Scrabble? Sounds divine, doesn’t it? Well, the insanely talented Erin Hearts Court brings us an engagement session that is exactly that! We are so in love with this couple–not to mention her amazing dress! Every single image gives us the warm and fuzzies!
Get ready for the sweetest fall engagement shoot! Andrea and Josh wanted a fall look for their photos, so they went just outside of Atlanta to Serenbe, a rustic backdrop that gave them the most beautiful shots! These two are cute as a button. Combine their cuteness with the photos of talented Melissa Schollaert Photography and the scenery of Serenbe, and we’ve got one fantastic engagement session to share with you today!
When I look at the photos from Marie and Victor’s engagement shoot, I can’t help but feel all warm and fuzzy. The couple has such a sweet warmth about them and the styling by Vicki from My Simple Details (who also happens to be Victor’s sister!) reflects that feeling. Victor is an avid sportsman and hunter and Marie is very family-oriented so the shoot was styled with antique decoys for him and some cozy yarn for her. One of my favorite details is of course the beautiful florals by Petals and Hedges – I love those blooms in the pitcher. Such a sweet and cozy engagement shoot set on the beautiful grounds of Lamontagne at Bluemont with photos by Vicki Grafton Photography!
In the mood for a warm thermos and some cookies? Then you’ll love this adorable engagement session, styled and photographed by Jenny Haas and spotted on Love and Lavender, as much as I do! I especially adore the cookies wrapped in ribbons – add a little cellophane and voila! Beautiful and tasty wedding favors.
There may be no more appropriate setting for engagement photos than Rome, “the Eternal City”. Zora and Fely wanted to capture the beauty of one of their city at a place that has always fascinated Zora, the Pantheon. Together with Teresa of In Love In Italy Photography, they spent an afternoon strolling from Ara Pacis Augustae across the river Tevere to sit for a cappuccino at Splendor Parthenopes. They then headed to the Pantheon, crossing Ponte Sant’Angelo and watching the sun set behind the castle. Although they arrived at the Pantheon at the most crowded hour of the day, Teresa captured a stunning image of them standing still with people milling all around—Zora says: “It is my absolute favorite, it captures us and our love profoundly.” We love the enchanting city of Rome and these stunning photos from In Love In Italy Photography!
Wes and Olivia’s engagement session is so terribly chic, it’s almost too much to handle! In my next life, I hope to be as stunning as Olivia, who effortlessly rocks a baby blue knit frock, a gold headband, and plum tights. And let’s not forget Wes, whose worn-in ankle boots and skinny striped tie are the perfect laid-back look. Add in absolutely dreamy photos from This Modern Romance at San Juan Capistrano’s Serra Plaza and you have an engagement session that’s pure autumn perfection!
Lisa and Ryan’s date night engagement session is all about their favorite things—first a picnic with their pup and then a dinner date in downtown Wausau, Wisconsin, wandering along the town’s charming cobbstone streets and then visiting one of their favorite patios, the Back When Cafe!
We are drooling over these heart-stoppingly beautiful Brooklyn Bridge engagement photos from Carmen Santorelli! Chris and Natalie chose a classic NYC theme for their upcoming Central Park wedding and decided that the iconic Brooklyn Bridge would be the perfect backdrop for their engagement session! They strolled the bridge and the Brooklyn Heights Promenade on a gorgeous late-summer day, hand in hand. I just adore how head-over-heels these two are for each other!
We love a casual, fun-loving engagement shoot, and Chris and Cassi’s Coney Island engagement photos by Jen Huang Photography are fabulous! The cute couple spent a day at the Brooklyn boardwalk playing games, trying out carnival rides, and just generally being in love. The result is adorable photos that show off Cassi and Chris’s personalities. We are completely smitten!
The heart of Ellen and Tom’s engagement session with Jordan Brittley—and their dog, Rocky—is a sweet and romantic picnic set in Forest Park in St. Louis. We love the pretty, low-key arrangement of tulips and hydrangeas, purchased at Trader Joe’s and hand-tied by Ellen’s mom. The gold leaf monogram topper by Crosswire Design adds an elegant touch to the Derby Day Pie Ellen made; the first taste of this dessert is what won Tom over in the beginning! We’re big fans of the vintage feel of these photos, aided in part by floral Ralph Lauren china—real plates on a picnic, swoon!—and linens from Cake Vintage Table & Home. Enjoy these lovely images!
We are completely in love with Debbie and Kevin’s fun Huntington Beach engagement session! The California light is simply lovely, and the love that Debbie and Kevin have for each other shines through in every image. We love Debbie’s beautiful cobalt dress paired with Kevin’s dapper navy suit, and their quick change into more relaxed beachy-toned wear, too! Sit back and enjoy all of the beautiful images from Christine Choi Photography!
Connie and Ted’s adorable engagement session is so unexpected for Los Angeles—there’s no trace of the city, just lots of hearty succulents, a little potting soil, and so much love! These two genuinely enjoy playing and hanging out together, and it’s so clear in these fab photos from Caroline Tran. We’re sure that the couple who gardens together, stays together!
Amber’s Prince Charming is literally riding a white horse—how lucky can a girl be? Amber dreamed up the theme of her engagement photos with fiance Josh and Aislinn Kate Photography, and we think these images are so dreamy! The two of them met up in a field, complete with wildflowers and a white Percheron horse, to make this fairytale come to life. We love Josh’s pale pink shirt paired with Amber’s gauzy white dress and pink floral hair wreath by Supposey Wedding Florals to round out the soft, romantic feel. Our favorite part is the image of the two of them riding off into the sunset—stunning!
How fun is this safari-style engagement session from Esther Sun Photography? Jenny and Andrew headed out to Safari Barn in Winchester, California, for a laid-back day with camels, zebras, horses, and goats! We love their chic look against the rustic barns and quiet pastures. Enjoy these unique and lovely pictures from their shoot!
Laura and John—fresh from a flight home to Chicago from Istanbul!—spent a day around the West Loop with Julia Franzosa Photography for their casual but hip engagement photos. Navy and green are crisp and vibrant in their images at The Publican and near Fulton Market; monochromatic outfits on abandoned railroad tracks give off an earthy, laid-back vibe. We especially love the cozy, homey feel of the couple sitting on their front steps. Laura and John look so comfortable in these photos, and we just adore their natural smiles and happy faces!
Hooray for engagement shoots with pets—and we’re especially partial to pups! Kris and Lauren’s lakeside photos in Dallas are the perfect family photos. Their two beautiful babies joined them to celebrate their engagement, and we just love the laid-back, playful photos from Matt and Ivy Photography!
We just love creative couples who like to have fun with their engagement photos, and Alvina and Edwin definitely did! Along with Laura Leslie Photography, the two headed to The Gwinnett County Fair, north of Atlanta in Lawrenceville, Georgia, early one morning to beat the crowds. Then they spent a few hours just having a total blast together, and it shows brilliantly in these images. The spirit of this entire shoot is playful, bright, and wonderful—enjoy!
What do you get when two graphic designers head over to the hipster-cool Brooklyn Bridge for engagement photos? An impeccably dressed couple against one of the most iconic backgrounds in NYC! We love the green and navy Grace and Mark paired for some of their images by Arielle Doneson Photography, as well as the graphic polka dots and plaid they wore in photos with their pup while hanging out at DUMBO. We can bet their wedding will be just as stylish as these chic engagement shots!
Jackie and Paul’s crisp, sunny session with Brooke Images is half laid-back Florida chic and half sophisticated New England nautical, and we adore every single photo! The couple chose classic coastal colors for their clothing—yellow, navy stripes, turquoise, and white—as they played and posed on docks and beaches around Amelia Island, Florida. We especially love their creative save the date shot with a life preserver and oar. So cute! We hope you enjoy this fun couple’s lovely engagement shoot!
