Lisa and Brandon wanted their engagement session to be out in nature, but needed it to be accessible because Brandon uses a wheelchair. After checking in with them about the durability of his wheelchair, I thought Elm Creek Park Reserve would be a fantastic spot to photograph them. Their paved trails are well taken care of and are extensive.

This engagement session felt so whimsical with all the lush nature surrounding us. Clare and Adam were naturals in front of the camera, especially after we all bonded over our shared experience with the nettle. Since the three of us are all big fans of nature, it was super easy to have fun in the woods while we wandered.

Dominic reached out to me wanting to surprise Julie with an unforgettable proposal at Palisade Head, which of course I was pumped for. It’s an iconic spot along the North Shore for a good reason. It’s stunning — a dramatic, yet romantic spot to propose. Turns out, Julie was onto him, but had no idea when or where he would pop the question.

When Erin and Landon showed up to their engagement session in this fun mushroom print, I knew it was a good fit. They both work outside in the beautiful outdoors; their jobs are actually what brought them together! Erin requested wildflowers in a plains-type setting for their session, so the Tamarack Nature Center was a no-brainer. I love finding locations that fit the visions my clients are dreaming up!
