Yes, technically we were together for our Engagement session, but really it was more like I was the third party witnessing a beautiful date night spent together in our amazing Mendon Ponds Park.   Admittedly at first, they were both very very nervous.  They chose me as their photographer initially because they felt very comfortable around me, which I love to hear.  But even knowing that, being in front of a camera for most of us is something we just don’t want to do…but we ALWAYS love looking at the pictures afterwards and are thankful we have them.

Before long, after sharing some laughs, and comforting them, they really did forget I was there and were just enjoying the incredibly beautiful evening together in each others arms.   The experience was something new to them in another way too.  They are both long …..LONG distance runners, and Mendon Ponds is their favorite place to go running together.  They know the trails inside and out…which says a lot because the park is enormous!  I’m always so in awe of the dedication it takes to be athletic.  Especially when they absolutely love it and can’t imagine not doing it.

They’re really lucky to have found one another to share this passion with too.  So adorable together.  They had such a natural chemistry; I especially loved how Brian lovingly protected Elizabeth..comforted…just super sweet; and it shows. ♥

I haven’t been to Belhurst Castle in a while, and am really looking forward to sharing in all their love and happiness this summer on their Big Day!  Enjoy!

With love and Happiness,
