The most exciting part for me about capturing Kaitlin & Joe’s engagement session is how excited THEY are! That just makes my job ten times more fun and clearly, they were in the best mood during their session 🙂 It will be very hard, I’m sure, for you to look through this post without smiling along with them. It’s funny because I know the idea of an engagement session is super nerve-wracking and uncomfortable but once we started, Kait & Joe’s natural love just shined through these photos! They quickly decided on the gorgeous Double Trouble Park in the Pinelands of Jersey for their engagement session because it’s one of the most special locations to them – it’s where Joe proposed to Kait! They even carved their names & date of engagement on the bridge where he proposed to always remember it 🙂 And we did their session first thing in the morning which made it even better. That gorgeous morning light glowing around them did wonders! Oh and get ready to meet the cutest little fur babies ever – three of them! These two are serious dog lovers, just like me 🙂

They have so much to be excited about, with their wedding day literally a MONTH away!! They’ve been looking forward to this day for SO long. Kait & Joe have been together for almost seven years and have already been through so much together. Their love was tested when Joe suffered a serious injury that took him almost 2 years to rebuild every bit of his body, both physically and mentally. But in that time they were able to fall in love all over again and even more so. It’s so clear to me how much these two love each other and I just know their wedding day is going to be full of so many happy tears (and I just know I’ll be in tears behind my camera too!) Kaitlin & Joe – I hope you love these photos from your session and know how excited I am to photograph your wedding day in a month!! It’s going to be beautiful, I know it!

Enjoy my favorite images from their engagement session 🙂

My couples really are the best – they are up for anything! And believe it or not, this was Joe’s idea 🙂 LOVE!!

LOVED this part of the park. Reminded me of a Tim Burton movie – did I mention I LOVE Tim Burton?? 😉

The bridge where he asked her to marry him – and them just acting too cute for words!

They first brought along just their one dog – Otto! Otto is a cutie and such a good, disciplined boy!

These are some of my favorites because of all. that. color.

Joe’s a hunter so these were some must-do shots! and I LOVED photographing Kait’s gorgeous ring on deer antlers!! That’s a first for me and I loved it 🙂

As if this shoot couldn’t be any cuter… than they brought along their other two dogs, Ellie & Mater, and we captured THE family photo!

These photos are my favorite because it captures life as a dog owner perfectly – lots of kisses and smiles 🙂

Be sure to leave Kaitlin & Joe some love in the comments below! 🙂
