Summer Engagement Session on the Water in Fawn Lake Aubree + Nick | Fredericksburg, VA

Couple Sessions

When I first received Aubree’s inquiry about being her wedding photographer, she was so stinking sweet! I could tell we were going to hit it off from the very beginning – which is always one of the best feelings. Aubree is a photographer herself, so she knew exactly what she was looking for in a wedding photographer. Nick calls her a “photography snob” – hahaha! But, it makes it that much more of an honor to be the one capturing her big day!

These two traveled all the way from MASSACHUSETTS for their engagement session! WHEW! Talk about the pressure being on!! But, when they both arrived, we immediately felt like old friends. We spent the afternoon in Fawn Lake (where my parents live!) photographing all of my favorite locations – and some that I had never photographed before! Their goofy and joyful love was so easy to photograph – I had a blast with them both. And they have some of the most THOUGHTFUL hearts…they brought me a Cape Cod themed gift basket as a thank you!!! Which is where they are getting married AND where I grew up living for a few years! SO sweet!

Aubree and Nick: I just love you two! Enjoy some of my favorites from your summer session and know that I am counting down the days until your 2019 wedding! YAY!
