Need some lakeside engagement session inspiration? From the jump, these two adorable humans knew they wanted photos in Cross Lake at the family cabin, which has always been incredibly special to both of them. They asked for a gallery of images that felt more candid and natural. My goal for this lake engagement session was to push movement and space/separation for film-like outtakes. I wanted the final gallery to feel like the romantic montage in a movie.

I’ve always loved the way light plays off the lake, how the dappled sunlight challenges me to be more intentional with my shots. K&C’s love was soft but tangible; it was fun and playful despite their nerves in front of the camera. These will be forever favorites.
