Pretty Place Engagement Session | Hannah & Joe

Engagements

back

When I first heard that Hannah and Joe wanted to do a Pretty Place Engagement Session, I was so excited!  I have been to Pretty Place at Camp YMCA many times over the years, and have second shot many weddings there.  However, I hadn’t had the opportunity to do my own session there yet, so I was thrilled at the chance!
Pretty Place Engagement SessionI loved getting to know Hannah and Joe more in a zoom call we had to find out their goals for their photography, and it seemed like we would be a good match to work together.  I especially loved that Hannah said some of their favorite things to do were experimenting with coffee and trying new restaurants – two of my favorite things too!!

After 8 years of dating, we got engaged last December at the Biltmore and have been excitedly planning our wedding since I wrapped up my master’s degree early this year.”
