I have been raving about this engagement session since the evening we took these photos! Chelsea is beautiful, but not only is she beautiful she has a sweet spirit! Spending the evening with her and Thomas did not feel like work at all.
I have had dozens of people ask me where the location of these photos were taken. I am sad to say it is a private community. But boy was it amazing to have access to this location! The location is nestled on top of a mountain with a view that is to die for!
As soon as we arrived my eye went to a ledge on the backside of the pool where you could see the mountain range. Chelsea was in heels so I was hesitant to ask, but I asked how she felt about climbing on that ledge; of course, they were both all for it! Thomas held her hand and guided her the entire way. It was so cute that when I had to move them back ever so slightly, Thomas wouldn’t let go of Chelsea. He made sure she had no trouble getting around the entire session.
One of the perks of this session location is this is where Chelsea and Thomas got engaged. Unfortunately, there were guests seated exactly where they were seated as he popped the question, so we took photos right in front!
The guests watched as Chelsea and Thomas snuggled and giggled during the session, but they didn’t seem to mind at all; they were focused on one another. At one point a group of ladies came to tell Chelsea how beautiful she was and how beautiful of a Bride she will be! I giggled because I have said this at least 100 times! ( maybe even more! lol)
I am so thankful I have been able to get to know these two throughout the engagement session and the wedding preparations. I am literally counting down until their wedding next June. It is going to be one to remember.
