Engagement Session
Driving to the location
Driving through the majestic mountains to reach the stunning Hyalite Reservoir. I was filled with a sense of anticipation for this Engagement Session.
Hyalite Reservoir welcomed us with its breathtaking beauty, offering epic mountain views as the backdrop for this memorable shoot. As we started on the trail, I positioned myself behind Ashley and Chris. Ready to capture the purest form of love. In just a few minutes, I could feel and see the love exuding from them.
We began with kissing pictures, encapsulating their longing for each other. Chris, in particular, couldn’t help but admire his soon-to-be bride. It was clear that their love was genuine, and I felt privileged to be able to immortalize these moments.
As we continued on the trail, Ashley and Chris spontaneously began to dance. This came as no surprise, as dancing was one of their favorite things to do together. Having attended numerous weddings, they were eagerly anticipating their own special day. They have been practicing their dance moves for quite some time. I couldn’t help but capture their joyful expressions as they twirled and swayed in each other’s arms.
We then sought out a location that would offer a stunning view of the reservoir and the majestic mountains. Here, they danced once again, their love radiating from every frame. I had the privilege of capturing their affection for one another in even more photographs.
What Lies Ahead on this Engagement Session
A dirt road awaited us next. It was here that Ashley and Chris raised their glasses to toast Jameson. Embarking on this new chapter of their life together. Laughter and smiles filled the air as they celebrated the excitement that lay before them.
As our session neared its end and we began our departure from Hyalite. We paused to capture some final photographs on a bridge that led into a serene forest. The air was filled with a sense of tranquility. As they held hands and ventured further into the unknown, ready to face the future together.
Reflecting as a Photographer
Reflecting on this session fills me with a profound sense of awe and gratitude. The timeless beauty of Hyalite Reservoir, the romantic moments shared between Ashley and Chris, the joy that radiated through their dance, the excitement of toasting to their future with Jameson, and the true love that emanated from every photograph – these are the elements that make me deeply passionate about what I do.
Being able to capture these significant moments in people’s lives is a privilege. It’s these experiences that continually fuel my love for photography. Each engagement session is an opportunity to seize these fleeting moments, preserving them for eternity.
As a photographer, I am dedicated to capturing not just the beautifully posed shots. Also the intimate and candid moments. Each love story making them unique. I want to convey more than just the outward appearance. I want to capture the deeper emotions, the essence of love itself.
Photography, for me, is more than just a profession. It is a way to freeze time, to encapsulate the most heartfelt moments and turn them into cherished memories. It is a vehicle through which I can tell stories of love, joy, and connection.
In this engagement session, I immersed myself in Ashley and Chris’s story. I was reminded once again why I fell in love with this craft. It is the moments of dancing, the laughs and smiles, the excitement and anticipation, and the unwavering love that make every session truly extraordinary. And as I continue on this journey as a photographer, it is these experiences that I will forever hold dear.
