Jen + Greg are so adorable. When we were chatting about their relationship and activities, they both said travel was something that they loved to do. So we decided to incorporate a little travel into their engagement session. The suitcases, trunk, map and compass were a perfect addition to the lovely couple's session. They are also big readers, him Star Wars, her Twilight, so we had to add that in as well! And, how cute is the chalkboard sign "i said yes", just love it! I adore Jen's enthusiasm and love that Greg is always on board! It was a fun filled session with lots of love and joy, just how it should be! I am so happy to have captured that with such a fantastic couple. Congratulations Jen + Greg!
