tyler + jessica ENGAGED!! Black Hills engagement photography
categories & archives >>

Getting to meet and photograph my brides + grooms ahead of time for their engagement session makes wedding season so much sweeter! I met up with Tyler + Jessica the other night in Deadwood for some photos and some back-story. For example, can you believe they grew up only a half hour away from each other but didn’t meet until they were both working in DC? Small world, right?! Another fun fact: they make walking look good. :-)studio lb black hills engagement 01

And snuggling… okay pretty much the whole time we were taking photos, I was getting warm fuzzy feelings from these two. :-)studio lb black hills engagement 02

It only took a year of motherhood for me to realize that morning’s aren’t all that bad, and that sunrises are pretty darn beautiful. So when Aubrey + Mary agreed to meet me at sunrise for their engagement session, I was thrilled to see a familiar location in a brand new way. And even more thrilled to hang out with Aubrey + Mary for a little bit. Obviously. These two are so sweet and SO in love and only have a few months left until their wedding day!!!
