Romantic Botanical Engagement Session

Emma and Justin have known each other since high school but didn’t start dating until reconnecting on Tinder years later. On their first date, they went to grab ice cream together, but the shop was closed, so they ended up hanging out and talking for 12 hours. Within a year, they had moved to Connecticut together for work and to see where Justin is originally from.

Nearly 7 years later, they had a trip planned to Turks and Caicos and Justin knew this would be the perfect time to propose. On their last day on the island, Justin set up a romantic beach-side dinner where he asked her to marry him. Emma later recounted how beautiful it was.

For their engagement session, we decided to give guests a little taste of the gorgeous desert they are about to see at the couple’s Paradise Valley wedding. And I think it’s safe to say the guests have a lot to look forward to.

Emma & Justin, I had an amazing time hanging out with the two of you at Desert Botanical Gardens and I can’t wait to get you back in front of my camera in a couple of months. After this session, I’m even more excited about your wedding day!
