Marika & Erica’s In-Home Engagement Session with a Cocktail Bar Nightcap

For their engagement photos, Marika and Erika wanted to hit a few different spots they love around their hometown, starting with their own place! I met up with them at home to start our session with a cocktail and lots of puppy cuddles with their two adorable dogs. It was a gorgeous day, so we took photos inside and outside of their home, which they’ve made so cute together!

We finished with some sweet kisses on the front porch and then headed out to one of their favorite restaurants for a second round of cocktails and snuggles under the bistro lights on the patio. On our way out, we found the prettiest nature mural and had to grab just a few more snaps there. I love these “in action” engagement sessions because it really gives me a peek into who my couples are. I can’t wait for their wedding this September 🖤

Also - I shot part of this with my Fujifilm x100v camera using the film recipe Kodak Gold! Can you tell which are which?
