Brandon + Rachel | Downtown Newburgh Film Engagement Session

Brandon and Rachel met in November of 2016 after a co-worker {Rachel’s Aunt} set them up. Rachel was living out of town while going to school at the time, so they talked on the phone and by text many times before meeting in person. When Rachel came home for a visit a month later, these two met up for a date at Bonefish Grill. They talked and enjoyed each other’s company for 3 hours.  Since she was only in town for two days, they decided to go on a second date the next day! This time they decided to go for a 6 mile walk and found so much to talk about! A month later, Rachel came home for Christmas break. These two shared several low key dates in that time but the one that really stood out for her was their date to Cafe Aruzu in Newburgh. They shared great laughs and an amazing time. They even went for a nice walk on the riverfront after dinner. Going on long walks is definitely one of their favorite pastimes together!

These two go engaged in Panama City Beach June 13, 2018. They were on a family vacation and Brandon kept coming up with clever ways to steal Rachel away from her family. Little did she know, everyone else was involved in a little secret. Brandon had planned a sunset dinner for two on the beach with some of their favorite food from Chipotle. He originally wanted to propose at sunset but he postponed the proposal because theses two were in great conversation and he LOVES talking to Rachel. They headed back to the condo and as they were folding up towels the two stood up and he grabbed Rachel’s hand. He got down on one knee and proposed! She said yes!!! And they are SO excited to share their life together!

These two amazing people are getting married this coming February! I am so excited for them!

For their engagement session, Rachel really wanted something special. We spent a few days talking about their life and love and how they met. We decided on a cute date at Cafe Aruzu to grab a drink and share some time together. It was absolutely perfect because their date to Cafe Aruzu was like the turning point for them. I think they knew after this date…that something special was happening. We laughed and had SO much fun!

It was so hot outside the day of their engagement session that we decided ice cream would be a good idea! When isn’t ice cream a good idea?! These two are so amazing and I can’t wa
