Mystic, Connecticut Summer Engagement Photos
If you’re one of my couples you know that during our inquiry call I spend quite a bit of precious time chatting about your Engagement Session and the importance of this time that we spend together. I have a whole list of reasons for this that I will share in another cohesive blog post, but can I just say that I love when my couples get excited about this and make the Engagement Session a priority?!
Fun fact! Courtney & Ryan will be getting married NEXT month. The photos they receive in their gallery won’t be used in the “typical” Save-the-Date fashion, as they’d already had that taken care of (although they did end up using a few to be in touch with their guests with some COVID-19 updates and information). But that doesn’t change the significance of this evening of exploring around Downtown Mystic, Connecticut along with one of my favorite local beaches. I loved having the opportunity to get to know them both better before their wedding day and it added an extra level of uniqueness because their wedding is so close and all of the details are falling into place. I know that the time we spent together in will make them immeasurably more comfortable in front of the camera on their wedding day and a huge bonus is that they also have some cute couples photos to hang around their home where they aren’t in wedding attire.
Beach Horse Session | Rhode Island
I pinched myself at least once a minute just to make sure I wasn’t dreaming during this session.
Johnna and Jay were married in September (you may remember their wedding from this blog post) and with a shared passion for rescuing horses, we had always planned to do a session on the beach late in the year when it opened up for these majestic creatures.
With beautiful florals, modified wedding attire, four of their four-legged friends, and their love to keep them warm (as well as about 100 layers of tulle for Johnna) we took to the beach and magic was made. I’m so grateful to have gotten to know this beautiful couple over the last year.

an we please just talk about how seriously stinking CUTE these two are?
Rachel and Harrison currently live in Arizona and when we chatted over the phone about their wedding, I encouraged them to still consider planning an “Engagement Session” even if it was just the week before so we would have the chance to connect and also give them some adorable New-Englandy photos while they were back on the east coast.
Well, I’m so glad we made the time. I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to spend even more time with them in addition to their wedding day.
