This past week Trey and I took our engagement photos! We were lucky enough to have time to try three different ideas with our photographer, Sarah. This is session one. As you can tell, these are not your average portraits. For this session we wanted to create a cozy and intimate atmosphere. I really wanted to have portraits that capture the emotions of this season of our life together. I absolutely LOVE how this first session turned out. We are so happy to share a few of our photos from this shoot with you, and can't wait to share more engagement photos in the coming weeks. xo. Emma

These are some of the most beautiful and refreshing engagement photos I’ve seen! A lot of things are so over done, and this looks so intimate, natural, and real!
absolutely stunning and genuine love!

The one where you are grinning is my FAVORITE. I love that these are playful, but still really beautiful and romantic. I’ve seen so many _dry_ engagement photos that don’t really capture the couple!
Congratulations! The photos are beautiful, and you are both so lucky!

Emma, these are gorgeous!
As a photographer, I adore clients who are willing to do something different and take a risk. And these are so amazing. The 2nd one where you’re touching fingertips? It brings tears to my eyes. Maybe because that’s something my guy and I do all the time … but it just feels like such an emotional, loving, genuine moment to me.
So beautiful – both the images and you as a couple! I can’t wait to see your other sessions!
What sweet photos. It’s so nice that they you have something a little different than the average engagement photo.

These are delightful. I work as a photographer doing engagement shoots and weddings and too often all the couple want is something perfect, something made up. I love the fact that these are real and intimate!

I really love the idea of this engagement shoot, I have never seen one like it! It looks so natural, not to mention sweet and loving 🙂
they’re very beautiful, congrats xx julie
Those are awesome but they make me a little bit uncomfortable! But trust me – it’s not you, it’s me. I never realised it but I guess that for me that might be a little too intimate! They are beautiful photos though, truly, and I think as they are first and foremost for you they will be the perfect memento of this special occasion! x
These photos are absolutely amazing! I love that the photograph captured the cozy atmosphere so well.
Beautiful!

Oh my! These pictures are GREAT! You look great! As Rachel says to Phoeby on the episode when Monica and Chadler get engaged “I’m so happy for them and not jealous at all! Ok, I’m might be 1% jealous”. So, I’m really happy for you-even though I don’t know you- and I’m really happy that you seem to be happy and in love 🙂 Looking forward to the next “episodes”!
