Natasha and Alex chose what is quickly becoming one of my all time favorite engagement session locations…Waterperry Farm and Gardens. I was there in the Fall and was in awe of its beauty. And it is just as lovely in the early summer! Those late Spring blooms are just gorgeous…and those grounds!
Natasha’s gorgeous ring fits right in!
Natasha and Alex were coming from quite a distance and ended up stuck in a bit of traffic. But despite a little later start, we had more than enough time to enjoy the grounds for a spectacular engagement session. We had as overcast sky, which produced the most beautiful colors and tones. It was such a great evening getting to know these two better and watching them interact!
These two comfortable in front of the camera from the beginning (at least you wouldn’t know otherwise!). I work to create an easy and fun experience for all of my couples but it seemed like they already knew what to expect. And overall, they seemed so very at home with each other. (:
I can’t wait for Natasha and Alex’s Airlie wedding in November…
So how did you both meet?
Alex (his first name is James, but he goes by Alex) and I met in high school when we were 16. Ever since then we’ve been inseparable. We went to Virginia Tech together and Alex is currently finishing up his engineering degree. We spend most of our time together hiking, visiting wineries, working out, and playing sports.
How did Alex propose?
We got engaged on NYE! We’re both a bit shy and don’t like too much attention on ourselves, so he proposed at his family home privately with just us to share this special moment with each other.
Congratulations on Your Engagement!!!
