Engagement
sessions you'll love
Engagement sessions that actually feel good to be in. A little direction, a lot of breathing room, and images shot on film that look like the two of you.
Starting at $400 · Add-Ons available · Travel included For 2 Hr Sessions.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Photography
that feels like you
Your engagement session isn't just practice for the wedding — it's its own thing. We'll spend an hour or two somewhere that actually means something to you. I'll give you direction without it feeling directed. You'll laugh at some point, probably forget I'm there, and the photos will show it.
Everything is shot on film alongside digital. The film frames are the ones that tend to end up on walls.
