Jake + Laura | Elberfeld Engagement Session

When Laura invited me out to Jakes parents home in Elberfeld, I never imagined it would be THIS gorgeous! I remember arriving and as I am driving down the road I thought to myself “There is a great spot, oooh there too, omg canoes!!!!” I couldn’t have been more excited to be exactly where I was with this awesome couple.

Jake and Laura had plans. Plans to use her grandmothers quilt, plans to use the dock, plans to have Jake take her around the lake in a row boat. So many amazing little plans. I love that this engagement session was so personal to both of them. These two enjoyed the time we had together. It is written all over their faces. I mean how seriously cute are they? No, I didn’t prompt Jake to make super silly faces at Laura. He totally did all that on his own. I love their story and am so head-over- heels to be their wedding photographer. I have always wanted to do an engagement session with the couple in a canoe or row boat. And I finally got the chance to meet Jake!

Jake and Laura!! You two are amazing. As individuals. As a couple. Thank you for welcoming me to your home. I had an amazing time! I can’t wait to see you Laura all dressed up in white, walking down to your future and Jake…I seriously can’t wait to hang out with you again on your big day! Thank you for such an amazing time! I had a blast and can’t wait to hear all about the wedding plans over this next 10 months!
