This perfect fall engagement session had me swooned. And loved to capture some of the details of their love story and personal heritage. Like the quilt that Stephanie's grandmother let her use for the session. Umstead state park was one of those beautiful gems I loved to capture couples at in my time in North Carolina.


Love by the lake.




Pet pooches along for the ride.


Surprise kiss for Mike!


One of the cutest parts of these two's love story was the proposal story. Mike make this box himself for Stephanie... from scratch. What a perfect little detail. I love it.
