Lauren & Rob’s Engagement Session

Lauren & Rob’s Engagement Session

I am so excited to be working with Lauren & Rob, who will be getting married on November 5th, 2021 at Walnut Hill in Raleigh. They were originally supposed to be getting married on May 14th, but you know, COVID. So, they decided to do their engagement session on the date that they were supposed to be getting married. We shot their session at Coker Arboretum since both Lauren and Rob went to UNC Law School.

I photographed Lauren’s sister’s wedding back in 2019, and I was thrilled to be working with Lauren’s family again. Her mother and aunt tagged along to help wrangle the dogs and they were indispensable. Especially for the shot of the hands, paws, and engagement ring. That was an all-hands-on-deck situation. Pun intended. This was actually a shot that we created for Robin’s engagement session (Lauren’s sister) and Lauren loved it so much that she wanted to do the same thing during her session!

With many engagement sessions, I find that asking clients to do a little bit of ballroom dancing can elicit some pretty sweet candid moments, and Lauren and Rob were no exception. They laughed about being inexperienced dancers, but that didn’t matter since it enabled me to capture some great moments of them cracking up and having fun.

Congratulations, Lauren & Rob! Can’t wait for your special day!
