When planning their engagement session, Elise and Ryan knew right where we had to take photos — at a state park that has held special meaning to them throughout their relationship. San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park is an incredible find! This park has hiking and equestrian trails, all covered with hundreds of hay bales. I’m almost nervous about giving away the name of the location because I want to keep this gem a secret. ;) But, it’s so great that everyone needs to make a visit!

I loved getting to explore the park with Elise and Ryan. Engagement sessions are a time for my couples and I to get to know each other a bit more and get comfortable working together. Ryan, Elise, and I hit it off and we had such a good time finding new areas and hopping (or trying to hop!) our fair share of hay bales. I love being able to capture genuine love in the form of a photograph — it’s my favorite thing about my job. Elise and Ryan radiate that sweet, genuine love and I couldn’t be more excited to share this engagement session with you!
