I met up with Ben & Katie at Hemlock Crossing Nature Preserve a couple weeks ago for their engagement session! It was peak fall color and I am so thankful to have had a day with no rain for their session. This fall has seemed to last a little longer than usual, however I feel like I have spent a lot of this fall season trying to avoid rain. Despite being a little bit on the chilly side, we really did have the perfect day for an engagement session. As much as I love having that beautiful golden sun, I do love nice cloudy days as well. It helps to have nice, even light, and also helps reduce the chance of squinting.
A fun fact is that I went to high school with Katie and we used to hang out quite a bit! It was really great to be able to catch up a little bit while doing their engagement session and also hear more about how her and Ben met. They are so adorable together and it brings me so much joy to see that they found each other.
This session was a ton of fun and we even were able to do a few photos with their adorable fur baby as well! If you are thinking about including a pet in your session, my advice is to just go for it. Pets are such an important part of our lives and I love being able to incorporate them in sessions too. I loved this session and am so excited to share these favorites with you. Enjoy!!
