Its time for family and reflection, for church and for home.

Today's Engagement session is so perfect.

No props, no wardrobe changes, nothing but the sweet interaction and love between Ari and Alyssa.

Engagement Monday : Dana and Brett

I see this beautiful session words like "romance", "gentle", "tender" and "sweet" float into my head. 

The softness and genuine love captured by JBK Young Photography are elements every couple should strive for in their own engagement images.

Engagement Monday: Balcony, Dock and Lookout

This lovely engagement session exeplifys beautiful, skilled photography with the classic style and keen eye of bride who knows exactly what shes looking for.

Andrea and Jeff wanted to have their engagement session in sentimental locations that held memories and meaning for them. They wanted to tell their love story.

From the lovely historical home belonging to the Groom's parents...

fabulous image. 

I love this shot for the men.
Buttoning or unbuttoning the jacket.

From her charm bracelet to her scarf Andrea's style makes me swoon

And the beautiful lake where they courted, surrounded to gorgeous lush trees...

tippy toe kisses

Lets add a turquoise blazer to things that are in Andrea's closet
and that should be in mine.

And you gotta love this amazing lookout (and um... that car!) where the couple watched the sun set over the valley.

LOVE THIS!

Thanks to AK Studio Design for this fabulous engagement submission!

Books and Bare feet: JaNessa & Kyle Engagement

I love props. 

Not the random giant size pickle you'll find at your local department store photo studio, but personal props. Props that add to people in the moment, not distract from them.

Thats why I love today's engagement session captured by Clarissa Stagg Photography

The blanket forces them to cuddle.
Score.

Are these two stick'in adorable or what?

RED TOES!
I'm happy.

Paper fortune and love: Elizabeth and Matt Engagements

Today's engagement session comes to us from the very talented Caitlin Sheffer Photography and was shot at the Wheeler Farm in Murray, UT.

Okay,  holy moly talk about beautiful

I love the "almost kissing" images. So tender and intimate.

This image is super sweet, because it looks like a candid moment. Like the two of them are just playing together.

Do you remember making these in grade school?
Well,  Matt used one of these bad boys to propose to Elizabeth, hiding the ring inside it like this.

Doesn't Elizabeth look like an angel here? Her hair is so very lovely.

Horse! Animals make a very fun and very authentic prop. 

I love the lines that aisle of trees creates.

Such awesome texture and detail in this shot.

Wardrobe change! A must, in my opinion, for every engagement session. 

Such a fun little house they found. 

So beautiful. Just stunning.

another lovely, tender moment.

Check out that ring! 

Cowboy Boots and Kissing in the Grass

This couple is absolutely stunning. They went up the canyon for their engagement session, and spent some time outdoors.

A big thanks to Winsor Photography for sharing these images via Two Bright Lights!

Such a happy couple with such beautiful smiles!

These cowboy boots are awesome! 

She has such beautiful nails and such a beautiful ring! You can't forget details like this.

I love her cute sandals and how playful this picture is.

SO romantic! What an incredible background!

Even with their change of wardrobe, which is always a great idea, this couple stuck to their outdoorsy style and it looks great!

Gorgeous sky! One of the best times to take pictures is in the late afternoon because of good lighting and beautiful skies like this.

His shirt matches her boots, which makes for an awesome put-together look without being too twin-like.

What an absolutely gorgeous bride she will make! Such beautiful soft hair and look at those eyes!

So adorable!
